Investment Q&A

Q: Hi Folks!

Could you tell me what the 24 month expected growth is for Datadog and Celestica? Do you see this as a good entry point or are these companies expensive based on your metrics? They have had quite the run up.
Would you wait for a pull back or be fine hopping in now.
This is for a 2-3 year hold.

Thanks so much for all you do!

Q: Hello 5i

Back in 2019 I asked if you could provide a "growthy" USA portfolio.
The above stocks were your recommendations.
Could you provide an updated "growthy" USA portfolio for 2025?
Thank you!
Dave

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: Hi, in your estimate, which of these three stocks would give the most bang for your buck over the next three years? Please rank them. Thank you for the service .

Q: Which stock would you replace for PLTR which has growth potential, but at a much lower valuation?

Thanks for your service?

Q: Two part question:
You are often asked to suggest 5 companies for a TFSA or for growth and are consistent in suggesting names like CLBT, TVK and NBIS. My question today would be for you to introduce five high growth companies that you are watching but not recommending from the US market. Can you please list companies that excite you but have not yet been mentioned here?
As part two, can you state what you like about each company AND what you are watching for before actively recommending? Take 2 or 3 credits or whatever is needed to provide a comprehensive answer please.

Q: I have full positions in all of these. All in the positive, no tax implications with selling. Do you see any unnecessary overlap here? If so, what would you sell and what would you keep? CRWD up 18%, DDOG up 47%, TTD up 355%.

Q: What are your top 3 software companies that would benefit greatly from AI going forward, please pick 3 CAN & 3 US.
Thank-you for your great service as always!!

Q: Any company specific reason for the recent strong stock performance? How were their most recent quarterly results? Do you still view this name as a long term winner?

Q: Hi,

With the stellar performance of NVDA over the last two years, what inning do you think they are in for future gains and what's the risk/reward setup? I'm up over 500% and NVDA is one of my top positions. I hear the AI revolution is just get started and its only 7pm and this party ends at 3am. As the AI revolution continues here, who are the top 4-5 companies that are next to benefit where they are trading at a fair valuation currently? Would it now be the software companies and enterprises? I can either continue to hold NVDA or thinking of occasionally trimming to buy some smaller companies that have more torque, such as PLTR (expensive) or CLS. Any other suggestions? Thank you!

Currently holding SHOP, CSU, CRWD, TOI, NVDA, LMN, INTU, VRT, SMCI, CLBT in tech.

Q: Hello, can you please share your top 3 names ideally in the tech or industrials/manufacturing sector that most closely resemble Axon of 2-3 years ago:
- Lots of growth opportunities
- Business model with high recurring revenue
- Potential to be industry leaders
- Expensive for good reason
- Chance at doubling over the next 5 years
Are there others you think could grow into that type of business?
Thank you!

Q: Morning Team,

I currently own DDOG and thinking of swapping it for PLTR. Would like to get your thoughts on this and if you would agree to such a move?

Cheers,
H

Q: Could you review ESTC earnings and call? And if your feelings about the company remain strong.

Thx, M

Q: how long before DDOG is profitable who their major competitor and what degree of insider ownership

Q: It is my understanding that these two companies offer similar services. Are they direct competitors? Can you please compare and contrast these two on balance sheet strength, potential moat, growth prospects and current valuation?

Q: Hello Team,

Looking to purchase a couple stocks in my US dollar trading account, are you able to rank the above stocks from 1 to 12. Don't worry about size, industry or risk, will be holding for 3 years. Thanks so much!

Q: Previous answer: We think software may be the next area to move, with names like PLTR. There is some consolidation happening but we do not see AI as being 'over' as a theme.

Can you provide your three best ideas outside of Palantir and provide a brief summary of why you see growth? Please present in order from most to least conviction.

Thanks!

Q: Would you kindly provide 4 US stocks and 4 CDN stocks that would be your best bets today to increase in value by 1000% over the next 10 years. Thanks.

Q: Looking for tax-loss proxy ideas for CAN: DCBO and US: NXT, SMCI, and PLTR. If there are simply better names to consider as replacements, those would be appreciated as well. Thank you!

Q: I presently have $66,000 to invest and am looking at these stocks to buy. Please place them in order of preference . Best choices first and if there is some you would not buy at present prices ? I could have an extra $5,000 available if I sold my DDOG. Is it a hold or sell ? Thanks for your help !
