Investment Q&A

Q: Happy New Year to all of you,
I am heavily weighted in US.. I would appreciate your thoughts for US investments under Trump, for next two years: what do you think will be the top 3 performing sectors? And, what would your top companies be in each sector? Thanks

Q: I am looking for your top five CA and US stock ideas which capitalize on the AI boon, regardless of market cap. As well, what are your top three US cyber security ideas? Reasons for your picks would be appreciated. THX.

Q: Dear Peter:

Is INTC a value play or Value trap?! Is it a turn around candidate or a potential "taken over" candidate?

QCOM offer seems to have faded!

Just for the heck of it I asked the two of the popular AI apps, Chat GPT 3.5 and Perplexity about this. I got some interesting answers! Perplexity was more "informative" and thought it could have a target price of 40$. A double from it's current price level. Chat GPT3.5 on the other hand demurred! Perplexity also thought Private Equity firms like Apollo, or AAPL/Samsung or some Sovereign wealth funds like Mubadala(Abudhabi) may be interested!

As you well know one can get different answers depending on how one poses the questions to these AI chatbots!
Words do matter with AI apps I have found out.

It is struggling to stay above 20$. Where is the floor?!

Any words of wisdom?

Q: Happy New Year! I like investing in themes (aging population, infrastructure, internet retail, water, security ect) and am wondering if you have 3-4 thematic stock suggestions that you think are interesting here. So ya know, I am chock full of AI names at the moment as you might guess. Thanks

Q: Thoughts on this stock?

Q: Hi I was hoping you could clarify an answer you provided on January 7th about NVDA and trimming below 10%. In past, you have said “ let winners run.”

I’m torn with which approach to take as it seems contradicting. I do hold a very large position in NVDA (exceeding 10%) and need some clarity. Thanks so much.

Q: I would like to purchase a NASDAQ ETF and S&P 500 ETF for a long-term hold 15 years plus in a TFSA account
1. Should I buy in USD (QQQ, VOO)or CAD(ZNQ.TO,XUS.TO) I am wondering how the returns are affected if the cad appreciates in future ?
2. If I buy on tsx am I correct in thinking no tax will be withheld as it’s in Tfsa account ?
My ideas : NDAQ QQQ XQQ.TO ZNQ.TO
VOO. XUS.TO ZSP.TO HXS
Appreciate your opinion as to best ones to own
If you can rank best first

Q: Hi Peter,
I want to invest in a large cap energy stock that is well run, with solid balance sheet and generate increasing free cash flow. Valuation is lower than peers with lots of upside for capital gain. I’m debating between SU, CNQ and CVX. Which one of these would you pick and why? Or if there is another better candidate? Thanks.

Q: Between the two, which would you buy today?

Q: May i have updated analysis of this company please?

Q: Nvidia has been a ten bagger for me and I’m obviously ecstatic with this momentum. I’ve trimmed with my original stake at just under 100.00. It’s about ten percent of my portfolio. I know you don’t advise on individual portfolios but might it be wise to trim more and diversify further within the sector with Oracle! I also own Vertiv Holdings. Thanks. Your support and knowledge have been tremendously helpful over the years.

Q: TSM has slightly more than doubled in the last year. Can you please comment on its current price versus fundamentals and your outlook going forward. Thank you.

Q: Some flyers of mine that I’m interested in future prospects. Thoughts?

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I recently tuned into an interview with Jim Roppel who was previously bullish on the pharma sector, especially Eli Lilly, but he now recommends staying away from Eli Lilly and other pharma stocks given the incoming Trump administration. His position was that although Eli Lilly is and will still be a good company it will likely underperform and it would be better to invest in sectors that the new Trump Administration prefers.

Would you agree with this premise and either lighten up your position in Eli Lilly or even sell a full position for the time being?

Thanks as always,
Jon

Q: Is Tidewater screaming buy? An in depth analysis on balance sheet, industry, management and insider buying please. Thanks
