Investment Q&A

Q: Could you please give us your opinion of AB’s latest results? Is it a buy/hold/sell for income investors?

Q: QCOM How do you interpret the recent gap down after it reported its earnings on Feb 04? What is your view about this company in the future? Is it a good time to add?


Thanks a lot!

Q: Five below just keep climbing… do you think it is in overvalued territory now ? It is a good winner for me so far … should I just let the party go on in your opinion ?

Q: What are your thoughts on this company? They own some great brands like Moen..Please let me know on their finances and future prospects also does it look cheap or expensive? Thanks.

Q: With all of the fear around software being made obsolete due to AI, are there any particular businesses that you might see as being inappropriately oversold in this mass sell-off? I’m specifically wondering about TOST, as it seems that because it is so integrated into restaurant ecosystems, this would be hard to replace with AI… any thoughts on this? Many thanks.

Q: Allo,
FRSH is going downhill since it was mentioned in one of your presentation in 2025. Besides the Olympics and the software market, any particular reason? Thanks.

Q: Company is getting slaughtered after earnings. Do you see any long term potential for a patient investor?
Thanks

Q: How would you rank the listed names for buying today for a growth oriented investors?

Q: Hello and thank you for all of your great work last week as we all navigated the flurry of earnings, particularly as it related to the big tech names.

I have been hearing more and more about Anthropic, and how much more potential it may have over the long term versus OpenAI. Some have suggested that comparing the two names now is like what happened ~ 25 years ago when there were comparisons being made about Netscape and HP. We all know who won that “battle”. But many commentators are suggesting that the entity that goes after “enterprise” will ultimately prevail - this is what happened with HP. And the entity that goes after consumer/retail will ultimately fail - this is what happened with Netscape. Some have even suggested that with the most recent funding round of OpenAI, where valuation is predicted to be ~ $850 billion, that this may in fact be the high water mark, and that it may very well be downhill from here.

So - my questions are as follows - (i) Who do you prefer longer term, OpenAI or Anthropic? And (ii), would you be concerned about MSFT with respect to the significant investment it has already made in OpenAI?

Q: Hello 5i Team,

Given the current pull-back in the market, could you please provide your 6 highest conviction Canadian or US stocks (ranked in order) for (i) small-cap, (ii) mid-cap, and (iii) large-cap companies considering a 3+ year hold.

Thanks in advance for your always helpful advice!

Q: Good Morning
With all the increases in Capex spending what specific stocks do you see as benefitting short and long term? This might seem like an obvious question but with all the negative momentum it needs asking. Thank you

Q: Can you please comment on earnings, the lawsuits/verdict and whether this is a buy, sell, or hold? Thank you!

Q: Hi gang, would like to buy between RDDT OR HOOD. What would you suggest for 2-3 years hold. And at what price would you recommend and why,
Thanks. Alnoor

Q: Thoughts on AI's effect on these stocks. Are they getting lumped into selling software, and if so, how? Do you still recommend holding these? Thank you!

Q: Are you still very positive on Google after earnings? Big tech getting negative press with some calling to boycott due to connection to ICE. Do you think this can have any effect on Google? Thank you!

Q: Hi 5I.
Samsung has announced that they will start large-scale production of the next generation of high-bandwidth memory chips as soon as this month which seems to be a significant threat to MU who's recent success lies in the production of HBM chips. I was about to take a position in MU and this news has dampened my decision. Your thoughts and guidance please.

Q: Hi 5 I
I’m rebalancing nvda, and thinking of purchasing defence which I don’t have. What would be first and second choice of ktos, krmn, rklb.
Also would ens system be a good buy right now, and if so where would it fit in with the above defence. Thanks very much for all your good advice.

Q: Please review the earnings. Is this a buy for future growth? What would be a good entry point?

Q: Hello Peter & Team,

Is there any reason in particular MSFT is down (almost 20%) in the past 3 months? At what price would you say MSFT is attractive to re-buy shares?

Thanks for all you do
