Q: Happy New Year to 5i research communities!

Recently, the term "quantum computing" has been heard and read from all kinds of media often and people believe this theme might be a thing for 2026. How do you think of this theme? and any investable ideas you could suggest? Thanks.

Q: I’ve held The Trade Desk for a long time and it is at a very low price at the moment compared to historic prices, but it sounds like you're skeptical about its near-term growth potential. Should I look to exit? Between Crwd, ens, app, and png …which offers the highest growth ceiling for a five-year horizon? If you have another company to recommend, feel free … Thanks

Q: Constellation Software and Lumine Group were the only two companies in our Portfolio, which had a negative return during 2025, being a rare event after years of spectacular growth. Software stocks, in general, have also been weak, for past several months, due to AI related fears. Some market watchers are hopeful to see a recovery in software stocks, during 2026 and Tech-Software ETF was up in Wednesday's trading by 1.23%, against a flat tape at Nasdaq.

1. Do you believe that investors may shake off the concerns with Constellation Software group and shares could recover in 2026, from last year's steep losses ?

2. With our combined holding down to 10-12% (CSU 7%, TOI 2.5% and LMN 2.5%), due to price declines, and road to recovery at least a few quarters away ( plus a need to raise some cash), would it be wise to trim, across the board, or consolidate into one/two names and eliminate the other ?

Thank You

Q: Everyone, if you were the new CAO of CSU what would you do in the short term? Clayton

Q: I understand COHR is preparing the paperwork to sell more shares. If I understand correctly they want to raise 1.7 billion. Their current capitalization is just shy of 28 billion so I would characterize them as still a small cap. Any concerns about dilution? Would you mind explaining COHR’s relationship with Apple? I assume COHR is a supplier but of what? Any excessive dependency on a single client? Any thoughts you have would be appreciated. I’m up 280% on COHR so your help is much appreciated!
