Q: An analyst quoted in Bloomberg said "Ferragu downgraded the AI-focused chipmaker to neutral from buy, writing that the stock is “getting fully valued” after soaring 154% this year, on top of a gain of almost 240% in 2023. Shares fell 1.9% on Friday, compared with a gain of 1% for the Nasdaq 100 Index.

Additional upside “will only materialize in a bull case, in which the outlook beyond 2025 increases materially, and we do not have the conviction on this scenario playing out yet,” Ferragu wrote.

It seems he's alone in his downgrade to 'hold'. Do you share his view? Should we bail out of the stock now, or take some profits at least?

Q: I have narrowed down 4 choices of Industrials to add to my portfolio: DRX, HMM.A, HPS.A and BYD. The reason is they are all currently under valued compared to fair value according to Morningstar.
Please rate these 4 in descending order of confidence. Preference is growth in the next 3-5 years. And also please include suggested entry price. Thank you very much.

Q: The Go Easy stock has see close to a 12% drop following the announced CEO transition which has been viewed as negative due to uncertainty in the succession.

Do you expect the stock to fall any further as the transition for Jason Mullins (the CEO) is not expected until the end of the year and Jason will then still have a presence on the Board of Directors?

Do you believe the reaction to the news has had an exaggerated impact on the Stock valuation.

Q: My teenage daughters have some extra cash from grandparents and odd jobs. I currently maximized their RESPs but would like to see them invest the money in some stocks to have them learn first hand about investing. I realize you aren’t tax experts but wondering if you could point me to how best to do this. I understand I have to be account holder so for them to get the stocks I would have to sell them when they’re 18 and I pay capital gains or is there a way to transfer it to them and they pay capital gains tax? Any help on this would be appreciated.
