Investment Q&A

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

Q: When recommending CROX 5i makes it crystal clear that volatility is to be expected.
That has certainly been true.
i like the company, less so the stock given most of the vol has been down since my purchase.
it is now showing some decent upside M.

Does 5i expect 6 month to one year M to be more biased to up than down.

I am inclined to hold and add if the risk reward justifies it…. otherwise I would look for an opportunity to sell it and move the money into one of your current higher conviction suggestions.

Thanks yet again for your advice.

Q: In my mind, AI was a threat to DUOL since I thought it would lower the bar considerably for people to use the open source to create a language conversion program. But I've seen many like 5i and other growth investors really like their runway. It's there any merit to my concern, or is AI in fact increasing their moat or enhancing their first-mover advantage?

Q: Given that you chose 4 Canadian companies in response to my earlier question, as a follow up question, would you kindly pick 4 US stocks that you believe could increase in value by 1000% over the next 10 years. Each must have a current market cap of at least $750M. Please provide a short reason for selecting each stock. Thank you.

Q: I hold BRK.B and SPYV in a non-registered account and so far, BRK has had a much better gain than SPYV. Over the next 5 years, do you think SPYV or BRK.B will have the best total return? Is the high concentration of APPL in BRK.B a concern? Do you know where I can get an accurate list of BRK.Bs holdings?
Thanks!

Q: Pls give an example of the curency hedged CDRs for a rising/falling $Cdn vs $USD ? For example, if one buys the CDR for MSFT and the $USD falls by 5% vs $Cdn and MSFT stays the same value in $USD and you sell, do you get your original $Cdn funds back (less fees) ? Is it the same with a 5% drop in $Cdn vds $USD ? Thank you.

Q: I would like your opinion on Apellis Pharmaceuticals. I read Citron's research piece (was published in November) on this company new product -Syfovre- issues and make a little bit of research myself. Obviously Citron is mostly promotting its own short positions but this one seems a reasonnable bet considering the content of the report (see attached link). No warning letter yet by the FDA but it is surely a real possibility.


Thank you!
