Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: In researching this company, to me the balance sheet looks fine, fairly steady profit margins and okay debt levels. The stock price appears to be reasonable, and they mention the use of AI and digital transformation in their business.

I’m trying to figure out what the risks are, besides a downturn in the economy. Any thoughts? Would on-shoring benefit a company like this ?

Also are there already small nuclear reactors been built or up and running.
Thank you

Q: PRL and LMN are examples of small cap stocks that have recently moved in price to reflect their earnings and future potential. However, only after a period where their performance and promise were not yet recognized, and investment was stagnant. Do you have stock suggestions on the US and/or Canadian markets that might be on the verge of similar recognition and subsequent transition to prolonged growth?

Considering growth only with a multi-year hold, what do you suggest - trim all three, trim two, or sell one full position, and if so which do you suggest. Thanks!

Q: Portfolio Analytics indicates that across all accounts, we are underweight in the Basic Materials sector. The two stocks and CGL.C listed above are the only holdings in this sector. (CGL.C is a small holding. as it can be traded with zero commission)

Please suggest some additional Canadian and U.S. stocks in this sector to improve diversification, include reasonable entry points, and rank them in order of what to purchase first.

For a Canadian ETF, what is your opinion of XMA?

Please deduct as many credits as necessary.

Thanks
