Q: For some diversity on the US side of my portfolio, I added both ZLU and ZVU. It has now been roughly three years since I bought them and ZLU has averaged 12% including distributions while ZVU has averaged 1.5%. What do you think selling ZVU and adding to ZLU, or buying ZDY? The goal is to offset some of the volatility from my growthier US stocks which include many of the top names in the S&P 500 Index. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and Team.

Yesterday, Peter (a member) asked this question: Q: tesla sinking….byd recharges in 5 minutes…? EU and Canada to reduce tariffs on Chinese EV in retaliation ..

I don’t know about the EU, but Canada is keeping the 100% tariff on electric vehicles from China.

Thanks for all you do.

Q: Hi,

Just curious, KoyFin is showing Tesla sales forecasts growing by 13.2% in 2025, 19.5% in 2026 and 17.24% in 2027. Earnings forecasts are growing by 13.09%, 33.05% and 26.71% respectively.

I would think at least the 2025 numbers are materially wrong at this point.

When does the reality of plunging global sales get reflected in these forecasts?

Thanks very much,
Michael

Q: Are you still long term bullish on either TT or URI? I've been comparing these two companies for an industrial add.

TT is significantly larger, however URI seems to have better historical revenue CAGR, stronger EPS growth, and better margins, with a significantly lower forward earnings multiple and historically significantly more FCF per share.

What's your opinion on URI at these levels? With all the discussion about re-shoring manufacturing and data centre build-outs do you like URI's future prospects?

Or is TT better suited to capitalize on these trends I mentioned above in addition to the increasing need for HVAC in a volatile climate?


Why is the market assigning a significantly higher premium to TT over URI?
Any other industrials I should be considering?

Q: Hi - I'm trying to get a sense as to how much these companies have the trade/tariff war issues priced in. I know it's a short term question here, but would you wait to buy these great companies given the economic uncertainty? My sense is purely anecdotal, but my gut tells me that people are pulling back on extra spending....so while COST and WMT benefit from people looking for low prices, they may also avoid the spending on extras. Thoughts? In other words, would you expect negative earnings revisions over next few months on these companies? Even if trade war averted (unlikely), they still may miss this quarter as people are already tightening their belts.

Q: I initiated a starter position in ISRG & IJR several months ago in the U.S. growth portion of my RIF. Currently down approximately 5% for each. Considering selling IJR (1% of total diverse portfolio) and putting funds into ISRG (2% of total portfolio) . Or trimming a bit of my NVDA (8% of total portfolio with great gains) and adding to ISRG and CRWD (1.5% of total portfolio and still with a small gain) . Have been hit with decision paralysis!
Your comments would be appreciated.
