Investment Q&A

Q: Hello,

Can you please comment on the recent performance of the stock. It's current performance is quite a bit lower than analyst ratings.

Looking forward to your comments.

Q: Would you please shed some "non-jargon" light on the open letter issued by RIOT? What are the implications, if any?

In a different vein, is RIOT still worth holding on to? Why/why not? Thank you.

Q: I hold all these in my TFSA and they are all down considerably (ranging from -35% to-90%). I am wanting to clean some of these up. Are any of these worth keeping?
Thanks

Q: Thank you for the great explanation on bitcoin and the upcoming halving a few days ago. I have owned a few bitcoin mining companies for sometime, definitely been going up and down over the years but recently they have gone below 30%. Would I be better off selling the mining companies and putting my money into the bitcoin ETFs?

Q: Your thoughts on BitDeer (BTDR) please, and how it compares to other Bitcoin miners.

Q: Hello Peter,
While Bitcoin has been on a tear the past week, stocks like MARA,RIOT,CLSK,IREN have been trending down. When one looks at the graph, the negative co-relation is baffling.
What in your opinion is going on? Is this a buying opportunity or there will be better one when Bitcoin takes a pause and consolidates.
You do not think the stocks are a sell do you?
Regards.
Rajiv

Q: Can you suggest some Canadian and US listed stocks and ETF's one might want consider to get a small exposure to BlockChain in a TFSA. Do any of these companies make any money? Do you think the ETF's are reasonable proxies for BitCoin but with less volatility?

Q: With the launch of bitcoin ETFs what "crystal ball prognostications" can you have for such companies as Galaxy, Riot?

Bail? Hold? Buy?

The last week has given them a proper lathering, and I'm wondering if there is more (pain) to come or if it's a good time to add to the position?

Q: I hold approximate 5% of my portfolio in Crypto stocks (ETF's and Mining companies). With the SEC's approval of ETF's should I consider selling a few of the above and purchasing one of these new ETF's and if so, which one would you recommend. Thanks

Q: What is their balance sheet.
In what order would you buy them?

Thanks,
Milan

Q: With the potential Bit Coin Spot ETF ruling on January 10th from the SEC being a positive one for BlackRock, Vanguard, Fidelity, Ark and other Investment Companies, does it make sense (and dollars) to take a nibble on HIVE or MARA (knowing there would be a 30% currency hit in the case of Mara)? I realize things will be very volatile so just a small position to start. Thanks, Lesley

Q: This stock was around $20.00 earlier this year when btc was 25k. BTC is now 36k+ and this stock is hovering around $10.00. is there an explanation for why this is occuring?

Thank you

Q: Any specific reason for the significant gains today in CLSK, RIOT and MARA other than bitcoin price ?

Q: Hi,

Currently have no exposure to crypto and have been a spectator on the sidelines mainly. I held positions in HUT and HIVE awhile back but sold those. With almost certain approval of a spot bitcoin ETF, the market is gaining optimism and it seems investors are more bullish on crypto. What is your view on the current crypto market? Is this run up going to be followed by another crash or do you see more sustained rally with the new ETF? Is this rally going to be followed by another selloff once the ETF news is approved?

What are some low, med, higher risks positions to gain exposure if one wanted some small exposure. Here are some I'm watching. Can you rank whether they are low, med, or higher risk.

HUT, HIVE, BITF, RIOT, DGHI, MSTR, RIOT, COIN, GLXY

I know you own GLXY in the model portfolio already. Also, what would be your top ETF for exposure?

I'm a very disciplined investor, but on the edge of FOMO ; )

Thanks!

Q: Apparently there was a crypto or blockchain conference within the last week attended by some of the wealthiest individuals and companies on the planet.

Would you know what it was called?

1.It seems clear that some very influential people want this area to have a place in the world banking and trading worlds.


2. One commentator ( Josh Brown ) expressed the opinion that for the foreseeable future it will be very high risk kind of like gold mines over the years. But there might be money to be made in the picks & shovels companies..

Do you have any suggestions of companies that have merit or look to have potential in that picks & shovels areas?

Thank you

Q: Hi Team,

Do you see this as legitimate business model similar to a hard asset miner but 'digital' instead? Or do you see this more as fluff and a casino model? Trying to objectively look at both sides.

Which 2 or 3 would you consider if one was to purchase?

Thanks!

Q: Hello,

Given the Core Scientific bankruptcy filing, can you comment on Riot's financials to weather the crypto winter.

Thank you!

Q: Do you have a canadian stock or ETF you can recommend that is focused on blockchain technology. Thank you for all your insight

Q: Hello!

What are your thoughts on this company? Looks oversold at this point.

Thanks in advance!
