Q: I have held Heico for 4 years. I am up 168% over that time. HEI hit another high today. CFRA has a SELL on the stock. Do you think this is based on valuation or due to its long run-up? I have been trimming on the way up.

Thanks very much.

Mike

Q: I keep holding and waiting expecting this to turn around. I only see positives with their fundamentals and management seems stable. With the economy and jobs staying pretty hot I can’t explain this one. What am I missing? Should I be accumulating this one?

Q: Can you comment on Crowdstrike’s recent earnings. It seems to be the best performer of its peers. What does the current valuation look like compared to its historical averages?

Here is the question.

Which are your favorite cyclical stocks presently, Cdian and U.S., for strong growth in a TFSA ? Could you comment at the same time on CAVA-N, COIN-Q and PDD-Q ?

Gratefully,

Q: What do you think of SVOL for income generation? It seems like the etf is doing what it's designed to do and prices have leveled out since initial offering. What's the biggest risk with holding this wtf?

Q: Hi 5i, Would you buy chipotle before the split 50-to-1 (Need to hold shares in the company by the end of the trading on June 18) , is there an advantage ? why ?
Thanks

Q: In many of your answers regarding the AI phenomenon, SMCI used to pop up along with VRT. VRT has hung in there very nicely, but SMCI is struggling near a 60% haircut from its peak. From your last comment on May23, you advise to keep both eyes on it, but I,m wondering if some compitition is affecting the company. Who are its closest competitors? How did the last quarter report compare to the previous 7 quarters, and would that explain the current negative momentum? What should the next report show that would give me comfort to hang in there?

Thanks, Lionel

Q: You have often noted your preference for investing in stocks exhibiting positive momentum. Do you promote this strategy to obtain the best price for the stock - i.e. not buying a failing knife or to ensure that the stock being purchased has a solid following with other investors and therefore a "good future"? I reference CELH and VRT in this question in order to determine the best way to purchase these stocks as both have been declining significantly for a short time ( although I think any volatile stock could be used). There is no question in mind that I want to buy both. Normally, I would wait to see their prices turn north before buying but both have shown in the past that a 10% - 20% one-day rise is not impossible. So is a partial buy-in called for here and risk missing in on a one-day big jump? Or is it best to see positive momentum first in case the stock isn't coming back?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Why is the price of MSFT dropping so radically since May 29th, 2024?

Q: I would like to add another tech name. With software being weak as of late, I was thinking of either ADBE or CRWD but would be open to another suggestion or two as well. I currently own GOOG, TSM, AMZN, and MSFT.. VRT and BKNG as well even tho they aren't really tech names. Thank you.

Q: Looking for your advice on stocks with accelerating capital returns, excluding IT, for 5 year hold.
