Investment Q&A

Q: Hello 5i,

We are in sync with the theory that hardware stocks will slow down and software will be the next phase. Which stocks from this group would you purchase today if not owned. We will assume that those not mentioned may be purchased on a pull-back. Of the list, are there any stocks that you would swap out for another stock?

WMT, NVDA, VRT, FTNT, GDDY, EVLV, SPT, UEC, FFIV, PYPL, SYM, BMY, LLY, APPF, ARM, MNDY, ORCL

Thank you for your help.

Q: I recently sold my NVEI shares (basically broke even over the highs and lows) and have some cash to deploy in my TFSA. I am looking for recommendations on some growth stocks (US or CDN) for 3-5 year hold minimum that have good prospects. I already own PRL and LMN and was thinking about ARM, AVGO, and NVDA. However, is it too late for these stocks due to their impressive gains over the last couple of years. Any other stocks to consider? Thanks for your feedback.

Q: As a senior, I found the AI revolution quite confusing with so many companies involved. I wanted to understand their roles better before investing more. The explanations I found on Google were too technical and didn’t give me a clear picture. Then I discovered Bing and Meta AI, which were very helpful. I asked them to explain each company’s work using everyday analogies. Meta AI used the construction of a vehicle to illustrate each company’s role, and I found it much easier to understand. It was so interesting that I wanted to share it. Thanks!

Here's an analogy using the construction of a vehicle to explain the work of the above AI companies:

1. _NVDA (NVIDIA)_: Engine manufacturer (GPUs) - Provides the powerful engine (compute power) that drives the vehicle (AI system).

2. _AVGO (Broadcom)_: Electrical system supplier - Ensures seamless connectivity and communication between various vehicle components (devices and systems).

3. _SMCI (Super Micro)_: Chassis manufacturer - Builds the strong foundation (servers) that supports the vehicle's (AI system's) components.

4. _ARM (Arm Holdings)_: Vehicle architect - Designs the efficient and powerful blueprint (chip architectures) for the vehicle's engine and other components.

5. _PLTR (Palantir)_: Data analyst - Helps the vehicle's (organization's) mechanics understand and optimize performance by analyzing complex data.

6. _ASML (ASML Holding)_: Precision toolmaker - Creates ultra-accurate machinery (lithography machines) that crafts tiny, precise components (chips) for the vehicle.

7. _TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor)_: Chip manufacturer - Builds the intricate silicon components (chips) that power various vehicle systems.

8. _VRT (Vertiv)_: Power and cooling specialist - Ensures the vehicle's (AI system's) engine and components receive reliable power and cooling, preventing overheating and damage.

In this analogy, each company plays a vital role in constructing and optimizing the vehicle (AI system), from designing and building components to ensuring efficient performance and maintenance

Q: Please provide your assessment on the quarter and your view on the next 12/24 months

Q: Hi 5i
How were Arms earning and how do you view them going forward.....Would you be interested in them at current price going forward.... Why the continued drop? Fear of nvda earnings maybe?

Currently have small position, interested in average down for at least 2 years hold...
Thx

Q: I have held ARM since the beginning of the year. For the last month it has fallen 20%. I decided that I would add another half position to it on 04-17. Once the market opened it was in the $122 area and slightly moved up and then pulled back and I bought it for $122. Over the next hour I watched it fall to $109. Should I have got out of it once it started to fall fairly rapidly as opposed to sitting there and watching it fall? Thanks again for your professional knowledge.

Q: Why these two keep falling. Is it time to sell them?

Thanks,
Milan

Q: Hi 5i

Is there a share lockup period period for softbank on ARM shares....If so, do you know when this lockup period ends?

How big an effect would this have on share price and the available share float... It seems this would be negative for sp at least in the short term.....



Thx

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Respecting you don't have a crystal ball, after such a robust few weeks for ARM do you think the current entry point ($142) is high and one should wait for a pull back before buying in? Or do you think based on its fundamentals there is still a long runway ahead if one is looking for a 2 year hold.

Can you share what the FY 2024 projections are and if you would be a buyer?

A million thanks for all you do!

Q: With today's jump in ARM and current valuation, would you suggest selling and buying back when things settle ? I was tempted to sell when it hit $120+, but did not...

- I love many facts about the company and thought buying at $78 was expensive, but realistically what are the 5i Crystal ball suggestions and recommendations ...

Happy Spring in February!
Thanks

Q: With recent gain in tech sector, are you concerned with valuations getting stretched. Is there some kind of euphoria being building which draws some parallel to 2000 tech bubble. Like 20-30% jump on META, NVDA, SMCI, ARM. Is there a suggested to mitigate risk while maintaining decent exposure. Thanks
