Q: I'm cleaning up my portfolio and would like your take if any of these can come back from the dead? they are all in a registered account so no tax loss available. these all are now less than 1 % of total portfolio would it make sense to add to any (STC, ILLM)?

Q: Good Afternoon 5i Team,

Alkane Resources (an Australian company) is in the process of taking over Mandalay Resources in an all-stock deal. If you were a shareholder of Mandalay, would you take the Alkane shares or would you sell the Mandalay shares before the deal closes? Also, Alkane has applied for a TSX listing. Is there a risk that their application will be rejected and that Canadian investors will be unable to sell their Alkane shares.

Thanks for your expert opinion.

Q: Terravest, Celestica, Lumine, Vitalhub, Hammond power solutions and several other stocks have already been discovered by the market, with their share prices reflecting that momentum over time. In your opinion, could you name 2-3 stocks US and CAN that are still under the radar and have strong potential to surge once they're discovered by the broader market? Thank you for your excellent service and insightful guidance.

Q: According to CNN, "Currently, gamblers can deduct their losses before paying taxes on their winnings. Under Trump’s bill, though, they’ll be able to deduct just 90% of their losses. For example: Win $100,000, but lose $80,000? You’ll have made $20,000 but owe taxes on $28,000. “This new amendment to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act would end professional gambling in the US and hurt casual gamblers, too,” professional poker player Phil Galfond said on X. “You could pay more in tax than you won.”
An easy question for you, as it's more or less just speculation, but how could you see this affecting these two stocks? Thank you!

Q: Hoping to get your view on this NA small cap. Stock price seems to have taken a huge hit from its IPO at the height of the pandemic years, and although it began a recovery in the last year or so it’s still nowhere near its IPO. What do you make of this company specifically and the industry it operates (leisure products) specifically. Thx

Q: What can u tell me about this company? It seems to have a very low P/E but recently has had a bit of a pullback. I am not a holder of it but it has had a steadily rising stock price last 5 years. Would you consider it a good investment and why or why not? Thank you.
