Investment Q&A

Q: Please comment on Docusign and whether you would continue to hold (if owned) or sell into the latest strength

Q: Given all the negative news and the recent "retirement" of the CEO, what are your thoughts now on INTC? Has the last shoe finally dropped or can it get worse? Hard to believe the US gov would let the company dissolve given its desire to maintain leadership in chip design and production (although INTC has not been a leader in either for some time). Is this stock worth buying as a (gradual) recovery play or as a takeover target? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,

Currently hold shares of INTC at a loss and have held the stock for a few years.

Purchased the stock on the thesis that Pat Gelsinger would potentially execute his his plan to build additional foundry's in North America as an alternate to TSMC. Tailwinds of "on shoring" government incentives and the growing "AI boom" market lead me to believe that this was feasible.

Given Pat Gelsinger is now retiring and INTC execution issues I no longer believe that will be the case. I have held on to the stock for now due to the low valuation and the potential that it would be broken up and sold off.

Would appreciate you thoughts on whether or not it makes sense to hold onto.

Would also appreciate your thoughts on potentially switching from INTC to ASML.

Thank you,

Greg C.

Q: Which ETF's would you recommend that cover some or all of the "Magnificent Seven" stocks? Thank you.

Q: What’s the advantages or disadvantages in holding an s&p500 ETF in Canadian dollars (XUS) vs holding it in US dollars (SPY)? Which would way do you recommend? Would you still recommend buying in US when the Canadian dollar is so weak like it is right now?

Q: Wow. Is the market rational?
I find it's certainly getting far more explosive in qtrly reaction (up or down).

I am happy with this (what I think is) wild crazy lift in 1 day as Docu has morphed into a 'normal' software company (as in, making $, having profit, high GM) vs hype of 'future $'.

But, stepping back. To me, it is now trading at a "fair" valuation based on 8-10% rev growth and now >20PE.
How do you like how this company has turned itself around ? Do you think this move is simply a catch up or do you see a fundamental re-thinking of docu and there is more room for stock price re rating?
30% in one day? wow.

Q: In regard's MRVL's last question on Sept 27 you noted a sales decline. I understand they reported on December 4 and seem to have done well. Is sales growth still negative year over year and is it's forward PE ratio still with-in reason? I suppose they are a competitor of NVDA which may be a risk more than an asset even if its chips are cheaper than NVDA's. Have they invented a better chip or is there anything about them which is better than NVDA other than price? Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.

Q: What is your opinion of the Motley Fool 100 index ETF ticker TMFC ? It looks like they just copied QQQ holdings/weightings with a few minor adjustments.

Q: What do you think is a better investment in terms of growth for the next year or so, NVIDIA or NBIS? Do you think we should wait for a pullback in NBIS?

Q: What are your thoughts on DHR as a long term play in the healthcare space? Stock seems to be unloved for the past couple of years after fantastic long term performance. It's spin off of Veralto created value but wondering what is the next catalyst for this stock / company?

It seems punished due to concerns on China but the company reinstated its buy back program last quarter and I would assume that since the stock is even lower they are seeing value and purchasing shares.

Is this a good position to continue holding and even adding at today's prices?

Q: Wow, SNPS announces results and the stock falls about 13%. Is it still a hold for the long term? And for CRM, is it still a hold for the long term?.....Tom

Q: Hi 5i Team,

What’s your thoughts on Tradeweb as an investment? Looks to be breaking out and at its 52 week high.

Thanks,

Q: Looking for growth. What do you think of Axon & Isrg for a 5 year hold and how would you split a $20,000 U.S.investment between them?

Q: At this time and for a long term hold, what 5 US large capital stocks or so would think would be a worthwhile investment?.....Tom

Q: I was reading online about how Citron Research has been charged with pumping and dumping stocks before. They are currently tweeting positive things about this stock (even though they are a short seller). What do you think is the likelihood of them putting out a short report and shorting it after their positive tweets?

Q: Please provide an updated opinion on ACM Research. Do you see it as having strong growth going forward?

Q: Any idea why Sentinel one dropped 13% today
