Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: KXS has been a slow mover the past while. At its current rate, its slowly moving towards its yearly low. I see then ast report dates back to Nov 2022. Can you provide a quick assessment as to strengths, weaknesses and what you see going forward 1, 2 and farther out? Are there any threats/risks that might arise? Is it still one of your top picks?

Q: Please give your updated analysis of Block and Guardant Health. Would you put new money into either of them? Are they more of a speculative bet right now?

My previous question on CDRs was not intended to be private so please make it public if you wish.

Thanks in advance and please deduct credits for two questions.

Q: How would you rank these three companies as to best value, moat, and revenue growth over the next 3 -5 years? I'm leaning toward Descartes Systems but their P/E is fairly high compared to peers and the industry. Thanks.

Q: I would appreciate your help with an investment decision.

I own Qcom and I’m down about 40%.

As you pointed out in answering a recent question the PE makes it look cheap. It’s got a decent dividend Howe.

However, it doesn’t seem to be or have any momentum,

Would I be better off selling QCOM and adding to either or both NVDA or Adobe both of which are up nicely.

Alternatively, would I be better off just buying an ETF for safety and diversification.

Thank you for your help.

Q: Good morning,

Now a few weeks after this highly anticipated IPO ARM holdings, would you look at this as a good play towards the Ai and global chips market.? How is this company and Nvidia connected if at all? What is a price that would be a screaming buy in your opinion? I own Nvidia already with a hefty profit, I was thinking to sell some and buy ARM just want to know who you think has better lift in this exciting space.
Thanks

Q: Someone told me rumors about Microsoft planning to announce they are making semiconductor chips soon, and would cause the price of Nvda to drop. How reliable are those rumors and should I act on them? How do you see Nvda compared to google or Microsoft or apple, in terms of risk and long term potential?

Q: Everyone, I have held LSPD since the summer of 2019 and I bought and sold throughout the last 24 months. My remaining amount is less than 2% so not a significant amount of $. They have $700 million plus in cash; they call EBITDA positive this year; they reduced the head count which lowers expenses; interest rates will be increased once or twice then a wait period and then a slow decline. All positives for the stock price. And the Quebec Pension still owns a large block of shares - they haven’t given up! The stock price seems to have held at this price range, so there is no real material downside risk. SQ and Toast are in the same stock price position, an industry decline not a stock specific decline. In a better market this stock will quickly do a triple from here.. So … buy and wait … or… move on? Clayton

Q: There is a ( very) new ETF, coming out from Horizon with ticker QQCL being a covered call Nasdaq 100 with anticipated yield of 14.10 %.
This seems to be attractive for my TFSA for higher growth (with volatility which I can handle), along with a high yield.

I have bought several of these products, HTA, HHL, UMAX for both my registered and non registered accounts. They seem “ too good to be true “ and am wondering if that’s true. I have seen many of these enhanced products ( remember flow through shares ?) and hope these do not repeat.
Your thoughts on QQCL and on these ETF’s in general would be appreciated.
Thanks. Derek
