Q: I have a grandson who has just graduated from university in the United States. He is serious about investing and wants to know whether the best way to get started for long-term wealth accumulation is starting a high-yield savings account or an IRA?
Or, is there something else you would suggest.

Q: Greetings. It's been a while since a question was asked about Freshpet. Just off it's recent highs, positive reviews by several analysts, however still expected to lose money this year and next but with estimates trending up. Could you render your opinion, please, and provide attractive alternatives (if any exist) in this space. Thanks.

Q: Can you please give an update on COIN, especially in light of the new spot BTC etfs that are now available.

Coinbase charges 2.5% transaction fees, a business that will surely suffer now that there are ways to participate in BTC for 20 basis points. From what I rave read, COIN, as the custodian for several of these ETFs will be paid 5 basis points for AUM.

That’s 245 basis points lower than what they are make on their trading fees.

What is your outlook on this company? Is there any compelling reason to hold it? Please give your bull and bear case.

Thank you.

Q: In a recent answer, 5i suggested that CELH may be a multi-bagger “ IF, and only IF, it follows MNST’s pattern of market-share gains and profitability. “ Could you please describe MNST’s business model of market gains and profitability? To date, how close has CELH matched MNST’s playbook, accounting for time in the market? What are the key attributes that CELH needs to build/hone/display, in order to match MNST’s playbook?

Q: I've owned this stock for over a year now. It moves with BTC and sometimes goes up and down proportionally and many times moves at a premium to BTC.

Over the last week it has performed very differently to how it has over the past year VASTLY underperforming the underlying asset.

I know all about the company and its holdings of BTC, don't spend time explaining that.

I've searched everywhere and cannot determine why MSTR is so underperforming BTC in the past 7 trading days where BTC has moved very bullishly.

eg.

Currently BTC is up 5.47% and MSTR is up 1.2%

Over the past 5 days BTC is up 9.75% and MSTR is down 8.9%

Can you advise why the major discrepency?


Thanks

Q: I've got these laggards in a TFSA or RRSP, down between 15-36%! I want to dump a bunch (all?) as I feel I've given them enough time to perform and they haven't. Does 5i see catalysts in the next 12 months for any of these that i should keep some?

In which order would you drop them.

Q: You touted this stock some time ago and I have done quite well by it ever since. However, you have not mentioned it lately. Is there any reason to suspect that it will not continue to grow despite it being in what I consider to be a growth area - HVAC both residential and commercial? Or is there another US industrial you feel provides better prospects?

Appreciate your insight.

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.
