Q: Nvidia has been a ten bagger for me and I’m obviously ecstatic with this momentum. I’ve trimmed with my original stake at just under 100.00. It’s about ten percent of my portfolio. I know you don’t advise on individual portfolios but might it be wise to trim more and diversify further within the sector with Oracle! I also own Vertiv Holdings. Thanks. Your support and knowledge have been tremendously helpful over the years.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I recently tuned into an interview with Jim Roppel who was previously bullish on the pharma sector, especially Eli Lilly, but he now recommends staying away from Eli Lilly and other pharma stocks given the incoming Trump administration. His position was that although Eli Lilly is and will still be a good company it will likely underperform and it would be better to invest in sectors that the new Trump Administration prefers.

Would you agree with this premise and either lighten up your position in Eli Lilly or even sell a full position for the time being?

Thanks as always,
Jon

Q: Hello.

What are your thoughts on Citi these days? It seems to be getting a lot of positive attention following the restructuring(s) from last year, and seems to be a large US bank favourite for many well known analysts.

Any concerns if one was to consider initiating a 2% position?

Thanks as always.

Q: I have 2 Stocks in my Portfolio both of which have taken large hits recently resulting in sizeable pullbacks.

Both of these companies seemed to previously be doing well.

Would u say these stocks developed valuation issues or there was a material change in their fortunes currently or perceived going forward?

Would u hold, Buy more or sell these stocks at this point?

Q: Happy new year to the 5i team and readers! In your Jan.6th answer to Judith you ranked App no.1. Can you please elaborate on why it’s a top pick and comment on valuation. I am concerned about valuation - but then again, I’ve sold many a growth stock prematurely due to this concern and missed out on gains!

Q: Good morning everyone,

Has your thesis remained intact on URI? It appears to be making the turn. At a reasonable attractive entry point along with some potential catalysts in 2025.

Would this be your buy in this sector? AXON is already owned in a full position. Along with TFII on the CAN side.

Is their an industrial or similar name you'd rank above for the coming year?

Thank you.
