Investment Q&A

Q: Trump tariffs... impact on e commerce with non US countries. I see US analysts starting to reduce profit targets. I do hold the stock and I see 5i staff also hold the stock. What is your recommended course of action at this point... should I reduce my exposure? What would you do if you owned the stock? I do own GOOG and MSFT considering reducing my AMZN position and allocating it to MFST. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you.

Q: Is good to buy some to hold 2-3 years? Thank you.

Q: Given recent weakness, what entry price would you recommend to initiate a position?

Thank you.

Q: Hi team,
In your opinion is it a good day to add to CLS being its down 8% at the moment? Or is it looking like some pain ahead after the nvda earnings sell off and sept coming?

Q: Hello, could you comment on most recent Affirms Holdings earnings please?
Thank you

Q: Your thoughts please on the Marvell earnings after hours Thursday? If it could be bought for $70 tomorrow would it be an add for you in a hypothetical portfolio with a 12 month window? Please provide a high level analysis and whether you rate it as a buy, sell or hold based on the results.

Q: Based on your last comments on SNOW, you said "...expensive and volatile, and expectations are very high. Thus, they perhaps need 'perfect' numbers to see substantial gains."

SNOW nWhat is your take on the earnings I'm assuming you're fine with it from what I'm reading all over the internet.

Can you explain more about the data modernization theme in software and the long term growth (Compound Annual Growth Rate) for Snowflake and has the hype from it's IPO days remained the same, ramp upped or been less muted ..... is this a future 10 bagger, will it be as successful as a Nvidia or Microsoft?

Who are its competitors? and should SNOW be worried about them longer term?

What has to keep working for this stock for it to keep growing in the next decade and what might stop it from rising?

oh and ps....what is the insider ownership looking like and is that a metric I should be looking at for this particular stock?

Thanks again, please take as many credits off as needed to answer.

Q: do you recommend these 3 and in order of preference

Q: Please ignore if other have asked. Your thoughts on NVDA's earnings and conference call. Thank-you.

Q: I have a total of 27% in technology and wonder if best to decrease this as I do not have consumer staples or consumer cyclical stocks. I am thinking of selling of GIB.A and CLBT. Would you sell these 2 stocks to bring the weight down or best to just trim some off the stocks listed. This is for a RRSP and I am more growth oriented.

Q: I note that Sail is now a significant holding in BUG, which seems a vote of faith. Burning cash, but less so than in the past, I gather and earning more. I believe it has no debt currently. Could you please evaluate its prospects and whether it looks buyable here?

Q: I don't know what to think of OKTA ? It jumped up in March to May and has been going down since. Do I keep it or invest the money elsewhere ? Thanks.

Q: Hi, could you please report and comment on CRWD earnings, forcasts and post market reaction ? thank you.

Q: TOI can bounce around a bit but lately it's had some big bad down days. Today its off over 4%. Do you see any reason for it? Anything to be concerned about as the trajectory of the stock is negative?

Q: Around what price would you recommend taking a starter position in NBIS? I read yesterday that they are cancelling 40 million shares and are authorizing a 20% buyback on class A shares, yet not much movement today in price action. Further, are there any options strategies you would recommend for these growth-oriented companies?

Q: SMTC Can you please comment on their recent quarter and update your thoughts since your last comments.

Which other semi conductor companies do they compete with, and how does it compare against them?

Q: In a Presidents Letter several years ago, there was a detailed explanation of why organic growth was more valuable to the company than acquisition growth. In recent quarters organic growth was strong (4-5%) by historical standards. Of course no further information was provided. Do you have a sense of why organic growth has accelerated? Is it the influence of AI improving their businesses? Do you feel the higher organic growth rate is sustainable and if so should that lead to a rerating of the stock valuation?

Thanks.

Q: Would you recommend averaging into more CSU as it’s come way off its peak stock price set not long ago or do you think there’s more downside to come?
