Q: Greetings: 1-80 gold
Would you be kind enough to help me with the above company. I could not find any past questions. Do you think Equinox is done selling? What is your recommendation. Is it to small to own. Where is their mine located and is it in production.
Thanks, Ben.

Q: Hello team,
Following OPEC'S meeting this week-end seems like there is much confusion and a panic reaction as to the extension of cuts into 2025 but also the fazing out of some cuts in October. I am looking at averaging down on Tamarack and looking more at there disciplined approach to paying down debt and repurchasing shares.Is this a good opportunity to purchase and looking at holding for the next year or so?
many thanks, regards,
Jean

Q: Hi 5i,

I realize this company is newly public so with little history it is hard to comment on fundamentals.
But do you feel the nuclear fission industry has a significant play in AI energy and basically is there anything compelling about buying this name for a 3 year hold?

Really appreciate all you folks do - the community you’ve created here with your expertise is inspiring!

Q: Good morning 5i
I am using Berkshire as a kind of etf for the US market. The problem i have is that it is classified as in the Financial sector. It looks more like a conglomerate of businesses, though. And that is how it is listed on your asset allocation model. But, i feel that it skews my asset allocation in classifying it thus. First if all, should I try to change its asset allocation classification from just financial? And secondly, is there any easy way to do that on your portfolio tracking tool?
Thanks for the great service

Q: Both KXS and MANH offer software solutions to manage supply chains.

KXS has low single digit operating margins and ROIC.
MANH has high operating margins (20%+), and high ROIC (40%+).

They have similar gross profit margins (~50-60%), and in fact, KXS is the higher of the 2. In comparison, is KXS "bleeding" money on certain expenditures that MANH is not, or why does MANH screen so much better? What is MANH doing different that has allowed its stock to grow over 3x the CAGR of KXS over the past 5 years?

If your investable universe included US stocks, would you side with MANH going forward as a replacement to KXS in your model portfolio?

Thanks,
