Q: Can you comment on this fertility company and it’s recent earnings? Insider buying and ownership? Revenues and earnings are increasing, very little debt as far as can see? Why is the stock down for the past 5 years? I’m assuming the demand for fertility is increasing as we move forward (CAGR?)
Seems like s great opportunity to buy, but I’ll look forward to your opinion as always and it’s future prospects. What’s not to like?

Q: Good morning Peter and Team!

I have small positions in both SMCI and BKSY. After recent results, I’m considering consolidating into one company.

Which name do you have more conviction in, given a two-year time frame? For some context to other holdings in my portfolio, I have a very overweight position in NVDA and 3.3% in Nebius.

I echo the other members in thanking you for the NBIS idea, as I hadn't heard of this name until it was mentioned by 5i Research!

Thank you,

Brad

Q: In a recent question I asked you about strategies to protect gains you wrote :"Selling a covered call January 2026 $200 strike price today brings in $24. So if exercised the net selling price is $224. If the stock is below $200 in January the $24 is simply kept". But what happen if the stock is above $200 ? I 'd like some clarification.

Thank you very much in advance

Q: Hi,
I'm looking at a clip from the Kobeissi Letter which reads as follows:

BREAKING: Nvidia, $NVDA, and AMD, $AMD, have reportedly agreed to give the US government 15% of their revenues from chip sales in China.

This is being described as an "unusual agreement" with Trump in order to obtain export licenses for the chips.

2025-08-10, 1:56 PM

Having done some quick math, I am thinking this could amount to as much as 2.5 billion based on the value they sold to China last year. If that's correct, then is it possible 2.5 billion amounts to just over 4% of 2024 revenue for NVDA?

These seem like very large numbers to me, but I have to ask whether or not you feel this could be material to NVDA or not?

Of course this tidbit happened to be published on Sunday afternoon, which seems to be the usual time Trump decides to find yet another monkey wrench to hurl at the US economy. I also wonder about the 'unusual arrangement' comment, as that same thing was mentioned in the deal that allowed Japan to purchase US Steel, was it not?

Any thoughts you have to offer would be most welcome.

Thanks!

Q: A lead article in the NYT this morning stated that NVDA and AMD are expected to pay 15% of the money they take in from selling AI chips to China. It appears to be the price they must pay to do business with China. There is some concern about security issues. I would appreciate your take on this news,

Q: Hi,
I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you think CRWV will fair on next weeks earnings. A lot of analysts seem to have it on 'hold' and I'm not sure that's just due to earnings being close, or lack of confidence in the stock.
Many thanks for all you're insight!

Q: I read an opinion piece in the Globe & Mail on July 25/25 titled "A billion-dollar bet on artificial intelligence is about to hit reality." The gist of the article was that companies are pouring billions of $'s into AI on the premise that it will "lift global GDP by trillions, create entirely new industries and transform how we work." That is to say, the underlying bet is that machines will eventually deliver what humans can’t: scale, speed and 24/7 output. The author believes that while there will be some benefit from AI, it will not be as big as people believe. He says, user results to date remain mixed. More than 80 per cent of businesses using AI technology are not yet seeing significant earnings gains, and most (new) AI deployments have a failure rate of up to 80 per cent. Yet, the spending keeps increasing even though results underwhelm. An MIT economist and Nobel Laureate Daron Acemoglu estimates AI may lift U.S. GDP by a mere 1.1 per cent to 1.6 per cent over a decade, translating to annual productivity gains of 0.05% (nowhere near the level implied by current valuations). If this opinion turns out to be true, I'm wondering if the (tech) market is setting itself up for a massive fall or correction down the road (not unlike the dot com bubble burst of 2000). I'm curious as to what 5i's view is?
