Q: Hi,
As a Canadian investor, looking to buy into OpenAi, could you tell me what ETF’s have OpenAi holdings please? I have tried looking into Ark VX, but it appears I can only access that through “soFi” software. I am open to any suggestions you have.

As always, you’re insight is always much appreciated. Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i researchers,

I have been holding ATS for a while and bought it around $55 in a registered account. Yesterday reading your answer to one of our member's questions, you mentioned about "we like ATS' business but it has had some fundamental issues over the last year..." could you please elaborate it a bit more for me to understand what kind of fundamental issues? any other better name or names in the sector to replace ATS that has some fundamental issues? Thanks

Q: Hi team,
What's your take in NVDA announcement yesterday regarding the partnership with Accentra. Jensen had also mentioned in his interview that Blackwell chip demand is now "insane". NVDA stock has been essentially flat now since June. Do you see this as a healthy consolidation period with potential to breakout for another leg up? Or a caution sign? What's your prediction for the stock from here in the short to medium term? Is it time to buy more/ hold/ or take caution with a trim? Lately it feels like the NVDA stock run is over...but in my view AI is just getting started.

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Based on the webinar that Chris presented it appears that the equal-weight S&P 500 has lagged compared to the market-weight S&P 500. Based on this I suspect you would recommend having some exposure to the equal-weight S&P 500? If so, what would be a good ETF that you would recommend or are there any individual stocks within the equal-weight S&P 500 that you think might have a bit more upside than the average?

Thanks as always,
Jon

Q: Most sectors have done well as the market has reached all time highs in recent weeks.

Assuming that interest rates will continue to be cut over the next one to two years, what sectors do you think will continue to do well in this environment and what sectors do you think will struggle. What sectors would you avoid?

Thank You

Q: I have only ENB in energy stocks and am looking to add a basket of stocks with at least a 5% dividend, but also looking for capital appreciation. With the dividend, I don't mind waiting for the appreciation. Do you see any red flags with any of these, and how would you make up a 5% position? Would you sub any other energy stock with a 5%+ dividend?

Q: Bell used to be known as the orphans and widows stock, so I purchased some for the dividend which was better than a GIC at the time thinking that Bell was a fairly secure and stable stock.
Now I am under water by quite a lot and wondering what to do with it. How long do you think it will take to recover at least some of its losses. The dividend is good but if it keeps going down, then the dividend is not much good.
Is it a hold or a sell?
If it is a sell, what is a good replacement?
I am a senior.
Thanks for all your help.

Q: Hi,

Assuming the conversion from a trust into a corporation, and if you were holding the shares, what would you do as it pertains to the offer @$37 prorated based on the current trust holders choice. At a minimum one will get a third of their units in cash, and the balance is new shares. Would you take the money now and buy back the corresponding shares once the dust has settled? I don’t see the share price maintaining $37 over the short term, if it would, it should already be there.

Your thoughts?

Q: Follow up question

Please advise if one has over $1M including Registered and CASH account at one brokerage. Do you suggest to move some to another brokerage or will that will be cover by CIPF.

Q: I think I understand how CIPF insurance works. But wanted to clarify… if one has over a million dollars in stocks, bonds, ETF’s, mutuals, and cash in a non-registered account at a brokerage, is it best to move some to another brokerage? As CIPF covers only one million per non-registered account per brokerage?
