Q: Hello 5i,

We are perplexed on which payment stocks to purchase. FOUR seems to be somewhat of a disappointment so far, though many have fallen from grace this year and a path to digital payments through crypto looks promising though we are not sure how this will shake out.

Can you comment on the best way to capitalize on stocks in this sector and rank the top 3 payment stocks (in order please) to hold for 5 years or longer.

Thank you

D&J

Q: Questions on KBL:

Can you please comment on:

- Balance sheet quality

- Management

- Current valuation relative to its history

Considering its 12-year dividend-raising drought, is there a history of companies going long periods without raising before resuming once again. Wondering if there is any hope.

A somewhat related question.......
KBL is rated B+ in your reports. Does your rating system take into account any risk profile? For instance, I believe PRL is also rated B+. So from an overall risk standpoint, would you see these two companies at roughly a similar level of risk?

Q: With major banks like JPMorgan now planning to offer crypto-collateralized loans and expand into digital-asset services, I’m wondering how this might affect Galaxy Digital’s competitive moat. Could the entry of large, well-capitalized banks put pressure on Galaxy’s market share or margins, especially in institutional lending and trading? At the same time, what advantages does Galaxy still hold that could help it maintain its position as a leading “crypto bank”? In other words, as more traditional financial institutions begin offering similar products, why would institutional clients or investors continue choosing Galaxy over a major bank?

Q: I recently bought a small position in Galaxy Digital. Am I correct that up until the launch of GalaxyOne, the platform was only open to institutional investors? Also, I was looking at the latest earnings and where does Treasury Management and Corporate fit in and what is it? Is it GLXY’s own investment in digital assets? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,
I know galaxy in the growth portfolio has done very well. Does the roughly 7 % weighting reflect the weight after the "sale" of shares?
Also, can you confirm that there is a lock up ending around November 26 th, and what kind of a movement could that have on the shares? i.e. how many shares MAY come to market after that date? Are there any other lock up date expirations in 2025?
At this stage in the market, how would you compare the potential growth prospects of x and glxy? which has more of a moat?
Many thanks,

Q: Hello
Just looking at the financials for GLXY and wondering why the stock has risen. Sales are zero, other income is 135M, EBITA has never been positive, net income way down from last year, OPS way down from last year, Operating cash flow is negative, negative free cash flow forever so why is the stock going up the way it has?
PE is 250, operating margins are negative.

Am I missing something here?

Thanks
Jeff

Q: Hi 5i,

A little disappointed with the performance of these two stocks. Are there worth holding? What would help sway your decision one way or another?

If you had to replace them with two stocks that have a higher likelihood for better performance, which would you choose?

Thanks!
