Q: RKNG This brand new Defiance ETF holds some high growth names. Could you examine the current holdings and provide your view on the potential here. Ms Jablonski has some vision so could this be a reasonable high risk small piece of one's portfolio in your view.

Q: You may not have recent information on this company but if you do, I would like to know if the reason for its drop over the last few months is solely due to the class action. Regardless of the reason(s) for its drop, it has been volatile in past years and recovered, so wonder if you think the current downtrent is significantly different and low investor interest would mean a slow recovery? No new questions have been asked here recently. If you don't think the class action will create long term damage then can you please evaluate the company?
The lead plaintiff deadline is 17 Feb 2026.
Thanks your your valued insights.

Q: You've discussed declines in the CSU family as a potential opportunity... Many software companies are in a similar position. NOW and INTU come to mind. What would be 1 or 2 each of your fav. Large and Smid companies suffering from a similar fate and why and do you think it's time to invest or not. We've been discussing this scenario for some time now with ADBE and waiting has proven the best course.

thx, M

Q: Hi Team,
Is it worth holding onto SRAD and Geni much longer? I am taking a bath on both of them for quite a while now. I had thought the gambling sector was "hot" when I bought these, but it seems I had bought at peak and sentiment has fallen off a cliff for the sector ever since. I understand patience may be required, but am also looking at lost opportunity. If you recommend selling them today, what opportunity would you look at deploying the cash into tomorrow?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Hello Team 5i & Everyone,

With regard to the A.I. theme: If you had to pick 9 American stocks to watch that have been already running since 2023 because of A.I., which stocks would they be?

Nividia & Microsoft seem obvious. Maybe VST, AVGO… Gemini provided a list, but I’d like to know what you think please.

I find that the MAGS etf is a simple way to track the big tech stocks, but I’m not sure if the SMH etf would be too specific to track the A.I. stocks/theme?

Thank you for your help!

Sandra

Q: This ETF was mentioned the other day in an answer. My question is in part about it…can you comment on its MER, volatility, liquidity and your overall assessment about it. But also, can you suggest what size market cap you would want to see an ETF have to be comfortable with taking a position of some size? Thanks for your excellent service.
