Investment Q&A

Q: Thanks for your answer of September 5th to my question on SCMI. You did not give me a guideline as to what you thought a good acceptable size would be. Currently it is 3%of my entire portfolio. Do you feel that is too large?

Also, to clarify, would you or would you not at this point sell OOM Covered calls on this positon, say 450 ,470 etc.

You felt due to the higher upside vs downside at this point you would hold the position.

Thanks in advance for your clarification

Q: This stock has traded in the 30 plus dollar range this year until recently where it has taken a huge drop to19-20. Im not even sure if it may continue to slide. What's confusing is that it was undervalued in the thirties and now a big drop after a solid q2. Also the short position has recently increased to 29 percent. The shorts got what they wanted. Shouldn't they be covering. I want to buy but feel they might know something with such a huge number. Lastly they just came out with a release saying the price isn't reflected in the value and they will start buying back 43 million dollars worth of shares. Is this a great buying opportunity.

Q: I am a long term owner of AAPL and have done well by it. I am wondering if a switch into GOOG for its projected growth is a better long term holding in your opinion. How would you compare the two? Perhaps the obvious solution is to sell half of AAPL for a GOOG purchase. My other tech names include MSFT, CSU, SHOP, LMN, NVDA and VRT with tech making up 25% of my overall portfolio. Many thanks.

Q: I've taken a position in Celestica partly based on your reviews. In one of the recent questions about CLS you mentioned a desirable entry point, any guidance on a stop price?
Based on this chart i will set my stop limit just below the 200 SMA at $57.50

Seem reasonable for downside protection?
With the BOC lowering rates i think that is positive for small caps like CLS however i'm still nervous about a broader market decline.

Q: Wondering what your take on the quarterly reports are for these two, with one going up and the other going down after hours. Really interested on your take of ZS since it seems to have finally come down in valuation. Is this a good buying opportunity for us bargain hunters? How does its valuation stack up now against CRWD, PANW, and FTNT?

Q: Good Morning

Q: Hello, I would like to have your opinion on XHAK. I have been looking at buying a cybersecurity stock for some time, trying to decide between Palo Alto and Crowdstrike and some others. Could this ETF be a way in the sector? Looking at the portfolio, it includes some cos that don’t seem to be directly involved in cybersecurity, though. Not sure why these are included in this ETF… Thanks

Q: Sorry but I have to ask. If you were to pick two AI small cap takeover target ... what would you pick in Cad and USD? Thanks Danny-boy

Q: Hi, can i get your opinion on this company?

Q: thoughts on match now and long term ?

Q: Would you please shed some "non-jargon" light on the open letter issued by RIOT? What are the implications, if any?

In a different vein, is RIOT still worth holding on to? Why/why not? Thank you.

Q: Everyone, Bitcoin, there has been a lots of talk about crypto for many years but I am hesitant until it is supervised by the treasury departments of countries. Until then it is nothing more than a digital currency that could have no value. That being stated politicians will start to approve if it will get them a vote. Rule number one of a politician is get elected and rule two is get re elected. So do I wait or do I purchase an ETF? Do I purchase in quarter pieces over the course of a year? Or what? Clayton

Q: What are your thoughts on their strong Q2 earnings? Would this be a good entry point? It may finally be ready to rally over the next quarter.

Thx

Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i In a registered account
I've held TXF, TXF.B and HTA for quite a while, all at roughly the same cost base. In terms of total return HTA at 52% has outperformed TXF (10.3%) and TXF.B (38%) substantially, although I've got no real complaints about TXF.B's performance.
TXF and TXF.B have the same portfolio holdings, so I assume the vast difference in total return between them is solely due to hedging.
My questions;
Based on your view of the foreseeable future, do you think TXF.B will continue to substantially outperform TXF based on US vs. CDN currency differences? and
Would you endorse selling TXF and putting the proceeds 50/50 into HTA and TXF.B or in some other proportion? (TXF.B and HTA have quite different holdings so I was thinking that splitting TXF proceeds between them rather than all into HTA might be sensible ...).
Thanks - I look forward to your thoughts.
Peter

Q: I have been living under a rock during all this AI frenzy, is NVDA exploring and expanding for the post AI era, or are they “all in” with chips and AI?
