Q: Is it too late to get into NVDA? There is talk about AI being a new indusrtial revolution and NVDA is the significant chip player. That being said, the stock has already had a significant run upwards. Am analyst today suggests that NVDA could rise five fold in the next ten year. Is this one to buy, even with a higher stock price than preferred?

Q: NVDA shares have been increasing in value recently by leaps and bounds. I am happy to be up >100%. (A shout out here to 5i's excellent advice regarding this stock.) What is causing this meteoric rise...and, more importantly, is it sustainable? Wondering here if I should let this winner run (it's 6% of my total portfolio now)...or start to divest.

Q: What’s up with Verizon? It’s fallen by about half over the last few years, but doesn’t appear to have ever cut its dividend which is now north of 7%. Is it all debt concerns? Is this an opportunity currently or trying to catch the falling knife?

Q: I have been slowly accumulating ISRG. It has just gone above its 52 week high. Considering another small purchase based on hopefully continued momentum. Is it still a good long term plan or time to pause and wait for a pull back and better valuation? Thanks

Q: Hi, Can I get your take on Sea Limited’s recent earnings? I thought they looked pretty good but this morning’s market reaction, not positive.

I’m at a loss on this one in a registered account but I still like the long story. Am I wrong? Would you hold, sell or add at this level? I understand it’s a personal decision…

Thanks,
