Q: Hi,
We own no crypto stocks. I feel that we should have some exposure in our portfolio. Now there has been a bit of a pull back… I cannot decide on what combination of stocks or ETF’s (cnd or US$) to buy in this sector for total portfolio weight of approximately 4-5%. What 3 combination of companies and/or ETF would you buy for a balanced exposure to the sector.
Thanks for all that you do!

Q: I hold a 3.55% position in COIN which has a nice gain so far. Recently I started a position in GLXY which has a weight of less than 1% and now trading at a loss. Is it a good idea to continue holding both? Should I persist with GLXY or go ahead with some tax loss selling.

Q: Hello 5i,

We are perplexed on which payment stocks to purchase. FOUR seems to be somewhat of a disappointment so far, though many have fallen from grace this year and a path to digital payments through crypto looks promising though we are not sure how this will shake out.

Can you comment on the best way to capitalize on stocks in this sector and rank the top 3 payment stocks (in order please) to hold for 5 years or longer.

Thank you

Q: Is this primarily a tech company or more of a 50/50 hybrid with the financial sector?

Q: Hello 5i,

There is a lot of noise about Stablecoins, gold, US debt reduction and opportunities in crypto coins to take advantage of servicing transactions. IF Stablecoins are rolled out by the US gov't, how will this affect GLXY?

Do you have Crypto suggestions if Stablecoins are backed by the US gov't? Most of this is above our heads but Trump knows how to go bankrupt and make a fortune.

Thank you

Q: I am planning to invest $5k for the long term (10 years) in Ethereum/crypto-related stocks. This represents 1% of my portfolio.

Should I split my money equally between COIN, GLXY, ETHQ/ETHA and BMNR?

If not in what order should I buy these stocks? Are there any that you would not consider?

Q: In a recent response to a question, you suggested that US financials were your second highest conviction sector, after tech.


With that in mind, could you please share your top six U.S. financial picks, ranked by conviction? Does BRK.B make the list? I’d appreciate a brief justification either way.

Thank you,

Q: Hello 5i,
New to portfolio analytics, can’t say enough about this team! Bravo.

Circumstances forced me to shuffle financially this past year.
43, pension, rentals. 55 freedom or forget it.

Highest conviction, growth, maj; tech, leaning themes to the next decade, a sprinkle of sector diversity, large/mid/small caps, predominantly US. I’m aware of course of all the caveats here lol. A 12-15 starter pack would be fabulous.

This is you starting today; You have 300k.
I do add 700 per week, please exclude
BN, TRI, ISRG, COST, HIMS, NBIS, NVDA, BKSY.

Eagerly waiting! Thank you.

Q: There has been a huge run in the AI related stocks which your service has nailed. Thank you! Are there other sectors that you think have growth and upside right now, and why? If you have a sector(let's say gold, or consumer, etc), could you give a couple names US and CDA as well? Or should I just look in your portfolios for your picks?

Q: HI guys,

On CNBC last week Michael Saylor discussed MSTR and one of the things he mentioned was it was designed to be 2X BTC movement.

I'm talking short term history here, not over years.

In the past 5 days Mstr is -1.32%, 1 month it is -15.96% and the past 3 months it is - 13.43%

However BTC has performed past 5 days +4.67%, 1 month - 2.31% and 3 month +11.1%.

As you can see BTC has outperformed MSTR quite substantially over the recent past.

Why would you think this is happening? Is the MSTR trade done? What do you reccomend for BTC exposure?

Thanks
