Q: I bought SMCI just before the latest earnings, one reason for the purchase was the low share count. I have done well with that criteria in the past. Are there any compelling buys in companies with that feature Canada or US? Can you list the top 10 picks any sector. Please take as many credits as you wish. Thanks, Wayne.

Q: I have made money on TTD but am getting bored with it. It goes up and down like a yoyo and does just fine but I'm wondering if there is something with a clearer path to growth if I am okay with volatility? If it was a simple question of owning TTD or buying something different would you keep it? If not, which two stocks would be good to keep growth exposure with a bit of diversification?

Q: I recently picked up some POWL:US stock. Today (Friday March 1st) I see the stock has dropped approx 5%. I also note that Mr. T Powell, owner, sold 25K shares. This might have been a trigger for some investors as a time to sell. However, he owns 2.4M shares. I am thinking that his sale is actually immaterial to his overall holdings. In other words, this might be a good time to purchase more. Am I on the right track?
My thanks.

Q: Hello 5i,

Interested in your perspective on CDRs vs traditional US holdings. Understanding you are comfortable with them did want to validate 2 scenarios -

1 - Would you always prefer the traditional US holding versus its equivalent CDR and assuming so - is there a minimun you would consider in terms of holdings. Simply put - does it make sense to buy only (example) 3 shares of GOOG or should I instead use that liquidity to purchase equivalent CDR's

2 - Can you please rank top 3 CDR's at the moment

Thank you as always!

Q: Hello 5i researchers,

I bought this ARKK ETF during the pandemic time ARKK's hype days. As of today, many stocks recovered from 2023 lows, but ARKK. I am kind of losing patience, especially watching their daily trade information they published, keeping buying losers and selling winners. May I have your view on this ETF? Hold or move on? Thank you.
