Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i
I have added NFLX to my watchlist due to recent turmoil (WB) bringing price down. Using 1 year chart RSI is now under 30. A few months back you suggested $115 as an entry point, what say you at $95?
Thanks and happy holidays! Greg

Q: Your thoughts on Netflix Pursuing Warner Bros. Discovery?
I find Netflix’s interest in acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery puzzling given the risk profile — regulatory and antitrust hurdles, political sensitivities, legacy assets like CNN that don’t align neatly with Netflix’s model, and the potential future debt burden Netflix may need to take on to finance such a deal.
Beyond regulatory issues, the integration risk seems significant — merging two different cultures, operating systems, content strategies, and media infrastructures could easily become management-distracting and value-eroding.Given all this, would you continue to hold NFLX while these scenarios play out?
I seek your views on:
• whether the strategic upside outweighs the regulatory and integration risks after year one post acquisition
• whether additional leverage to finance a large takeover strengthens or weakens Netflix’s long-term positioning (and especially whether increase in NFLX subscription cost could backfire
• expected regulatory posture toward such a transaction
• how you would position NFLX through this uncertainty (specifically whether you would hold through turmoil I expect). Thank you. :ao:

Q: Is Larry Fink betting a major part of BLK’s future on block chain and more specifically ethereum. BMNR has been mentioned as a potential acquisition to get the amount of ethereum that BLK would need to achieve a strong position in that market.

Does your research suggest that all this is likely and/or in action. AND would you consider this to be a good time to buy BLK shares ? Thanks

Q: I came across SMX stock. It shows 52 week from 3 to 66k. Is this worth investing. Can you please give your opinion.

Thanks for the excellent service

Q: Please update your opinion on CVLT including details on guidance and any contract wins. It came onto my radar after Ryan made an appearance touting it as one to watch. On Sept 4, you mentioned in a question that it was ok but expensive and preferred others. At $120-125 per share does it represent an opportunity or is it still expensive? Why or why not and if NO, at what price does it become a yes based on potential?

Q: Can you please update your opinion of PSN based on the news from today and negative market reaction? What did the market not like with the new contract?

Finally, would you rank it in your top group of favourite growth stocks after today's news and market reaction? If not, please state two that look better based on this weeks news and market activity

Q: We bought in at USD 130 and today it's at 102.50. Would you consider selling at a loss and repurchasing in a month? Thanks for your opinion

Q: Can you provide your opinion of this bought deal. Pros and Cons. Particularly longer term.

Q: Do you have a preference between AEP and DUK? My objective is to add some stability and balance to an otherwise aggressive portfolio. I looked at FTS and EMA, but I have limited understanding of the Canadian market. If you believe a Canadian utility offers better growth potential, I would appreciate your insight and any suggestions you may have, given this objective. (Canadian taxpayer; this is for a tax-deferred acc).

Q: What are your thoughts of factor investing for this ETF ?

Q: Do you have any information on the impact Nvidia's share repurchases are making on the float or the comany's PE? Have they cancelled a significant % of shares? Is repurchase accelerating in any visible way with the current "pause" in share price increase? Thanks!

Q: I understand there has been some type of study which shows people who have taken the Shingles vaccine are less likely to develop Alzheimer’s like diseases. The scientific community seems not to know why this is so. There are a lot of unknowns on this study to say the least. Do you know any first rate Pharma companies that are leaders in the development and manufacturing the Shingles vaccines? I know there are a number of Shingles vaccines out in the marketplace, probably made by different companies. Does Bloomberg have anything to say on the subject? Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
