I didn’t see other news. Do you think this is the reason to the Stock decline and do you think this will have a material impact on the stock short and long term based on similar past situations a companies

Q: I manage my son's TFSA and have just sold his NVDA shares at a 200% profit. Many thanks for 5i's excellent advice on this purchase! He needs the money next year and I felt - after a good run - it was time to play it safe and cash in. I would now like to reinvest the funds in a less volatile stock - in any sector - that still has reasonable growth prospects over the next year. CSU comes to mind (and I know you're a big fan). MSFT and GOOG already owned. What would be your top three choices for replacing NVDA - Canadian or US? Thank you,

Q: with so much extra copper needed in the future ,because of EV and clean energy what are your thoughts going forward on the copper price in the future?
It seems to me a no brainer as building a mine will not happen overnight either.
How would you play this as an investor?

Q: I hold EQB in my income portion of the total portfolio. Where as 5iR allocates EQB to the Growth Portfolio which I don't have as a portion of my total portfolio. After reading the recent flash report of EQB, I'm inclined to now hold it in my Balance portion of the total portfolio. What do say you about this EQB transfer in my portfolio portions??? Also, I hold TRI that is now in the income portfolio. What do you say about transferring it to the Balance portion of the overall portfolio??? Thanks for the guidance......as I like to hold 20% in Income, 40% in Balance that is all Cdn and 40% in US stocks with more of a stronger tilt to growth that includes technology and healthcare........Tom

Q: Hi 5i Team - I have been reading your responses to questions on CTS Technologies and am still not sure of whether this is a stock to hold on to. You mentioned in one response that the net debt is $320 but said that it has a healthy balance sheet in another response. Is the debt a concern? Small revenue growth is expected over the next few years but strong earnings growth is expected after this year. This appears to be a contradiction but perhaps not - could you please explain. Maybe I have not read this correctly. Also it was made clear that a long time frame is needed. Would this be three to five years - or more. Thanks.

Q: I'm now down over 60% on this company, where does an investor go to get reliable company information. Is there any value in this company or is it going the same way as EGLX & a few others that I've sold recently it always comes as a surprise announcement and the average investor is left wondering the information that is available is tainted to say the least.

Q: Hi, Analysts seem to like Constellation's proposed transaction of Blue Knight's Optimal Blue. It was also mentioned by National Bank analyst that the purchase price of USD 700 Million, seems to be rather on the lower side ( as not revised by the seller) and benefits CSU. Also, it looks like Constellation is now getting into bigger deal sizes.

What's your take on this for the company's future growth and on our investment in CSU stock ?

Thanks
