Q: Thanks for answering both of my questions on ATS and BYD earnings. In reviewing past answers on these 2 companies it seems to me that this in not the first 'disappointing' quarter they have had.

They seem to be in a slump on earnings and in performance which naturally follows.

ATS -31% year to date and -30 for 1 year.

BYD -18% year to date and -3% for 1 year.

Both significantly lagging the S&P and QQQ.

How much longer will you give these 2 in your portfolios before they are replaced?

If you were to replace them today with good quality US stocks with good performance numbers, which would they be?

Thanks


Sheldon

Q: Could I have your opinion on PFE earnings please. I see from your notes that Pfizer is not your favorite; could I have your view on its recovery potential please from what appears to be a depressed level.

Q: I currently hold NVDA in non-registered account and two registered accounts. In view of the poor performance and perhaps a low future growth in the automotive industry, I am thinking of selling my position in the non-registered account, harvest a capital loss and initiate a position in NVDA. I am trying to take advantage of the pullback in NVDA and increase the growth profile. Understanding your limitation in providing advice on this move, your opinion of the pros and cons of this switch would be appreciated.

Q: Previous answer: We think software may be the next area to move, with names like PLTR. There is some consolidation happening but we do not see AI as being 'over' as a theme.

Can you provide your three best ideas outside of Palantir and provide a brief summary of why you see growth? Please present in order from most to least conviction.

Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter…I see both SIS & NFI set 52 week highs today with NFI up 40% year to date. I have owned SIS for a number of years thanks to 5i, so thanks again! I also owned NFI about 10 years ago and sold my shares in stages generating a profit every time, and yes the profits shrank as time passed! I know you’re negative on NFI, but you also recommend buying stocks which set new highs. I’m considering selling my Super Micro and buying either NFI, SIS, MDA or SHOP. Of the 4 I have an existing position in SIS only. I believe I am an “aggressive” investor but Super Micro’s roller coaster ride is testing me. I have owned NVDA since 2017 which I consider to be a core holding. Maybe I don’t need to own 2 chip makers? I’m perplexed, could you give me some guidance?
Thanks,
Jim

Q: A few months ago I became interested in ATKR after some favourable comments in the Q & A's. The financial matrices seem fairly positive and I took a position. Ouch. It began to decline and in 2 months the share price is now down about 33%. The weakness began well before the wreck of the last couple of weeks, and it did not participate in the recent small cap run or even pick up on the couple of days when there was a bounce in the markets. Out of all that, what is your current view on ATKR? If it were you, would you sell, given (this is a taxable account) or would you hold looking for a rebound (hope is not a strong investment strategy), and why? Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Just read a very interesting artice by Tony Seba regarding his prediction of a humanoid disruption in the not too distant future where robots and AI repalce much of the labour market, starting with more basic functions and developing into more complex. He believes its not as far off as we may think. He believes this to be of critical importance for the success of countries moving forward. Thoughts on his theme? Which individual companies do you think may benefit from a prediction such as his, as well as are their ETFs which invest in a basket of such companies (both AI and robotic)?
