Investment Q&A

Q: In terms of recovery, would it make sense to sell light speed and buy shopify, if so, when should one do that

Q: Do you see a level where Topicus is attractive.?It’s been pounded badly

Q: What is your view on the downfall of Shopify? It's dropping way more than the market weakness. I believe the fundamentals are solid but this market and shop's performance makes one think twice. What is your take on what's happening? What support level will kick in and stop the bleeding? When does it report next and what does it need to report to be classified as good results? What do you anticipate? I have a small position that is getting smaller each day and am thinking of increasing my position.

Q: For a speculative position in a Tfsa which would you recommend and reasons for choice? Thank you.

Q: Good morning
A question was recently asked concerning your preference between msft and Nvidia. You said you preferred Microsoft. I was wondering if you could elaborate on your reasons for that decision? I ask because I hold the two of them and have been thinking of selling Microsoft in order to reduce my technology component.
Thanks

Q: Hi, There are lots of high growth companies out there with little or no free cash flow. Growth investors accept this because these companies invest aggressively in their own growth, development, market position, etc.

While it's understandable that high growth companies focus on their own growth now, presumably they will eventually need to switch to other forms of capital allocation. I am wondering if you have any insight into how much confidence we should have in which of these management teams will act in the best interest of shareholders when the time comes to maximize shareholder value via other forms of capital allocation. For example, if a company reaching maturity throws most of their resources into R&D despite diminishing returns it would not be in our best interest.

I realize the answer to this isn't completely knowable, so also interested in your general thoughts on this topic.
Thanks

Q: Hello Peter,

You used to love palantir’s prospects. Do you still feel the same way about this company and that it will be a future powerhouse in data and to a large extent are in a league of their own?

If so, at what price are you buying? At what price do you love it? And at what price is it a table pounder. I remember last year you loved it at $18.

Q: Hi Folks,
I've had NVDA now for a year - it has been dropping like a rock the last couple of months, just wondering if this is still one of your favorites AND should I continue to hold this in my non-registered and TFSA portfolios or is it time to let it go ? Appreciate your answer. Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and team,

With the Nasdaq down in the 10% range was wondering if the pros at 5i are starting to nibble or do they see this as a lot deeper in the 20% or more range.

Q: Having held SHOP (TSX) for a number of years, it's discouraging to watch it whither away. While this downturn plays out, would it make sense to short the US version of the stock? Obviously, there are considerable risks involved and it would require close attention for entries and exits, but it seems like this might mitigate some of the losses. Or is this a dumb idea? Thanks.
