Q: Can't say that I'm an "experienced" investor in stocks but I have been dabbling for a number of years now. It feels, and I know that's not proof, but it feel like the markets over time trade more on sentiment than fundamentals now than what they did in the past. I'm thinking the computer trading algorythms are reacting more to sentiment then the real experienced investors do. And now we will have an enhanced AI Computer Trading platform - do you have any worries of the market setting realistic stock prices (let alone our jobs) with the rise of AI everything?

Q: I've never really looked at investing in a long shot. Mostly just well established business. Do you have any thoughts on if this company will get off the ground (pun intended)? Do you feel it will take a decade before it realizes any profits? Can a Canadian launch company attract world businesses to use their facilities? I'm really not sure what questions to ask on something like this.

Q: 1.We have a bit of a debate going on regarding the merits of shorting stocks and doing so when they have the kind of pop such as Nvda had last week.

If someone shorted $10,000 of Nvda at the close of business last Friday, how much would be lost as of the close of business today ( Thursday)?


2. AVGO Same type of situation: buy AVGO end of business yesterday….and loss as of today ( Friday ) close ?

Thanks.

How would that person minimize his loss ( other than by NOT shorting it in the first place )?


Thanks

Q: My TFSA, holds my riskier investments and is 3 % of my total registered and non-registered accounts. I am looking at adding one of these two for a weighting of 25 % within my TFSA, so total allocation of this ETF to all accounts would be less than 1 %.

What is the difference between them and which is more appropriate? Thanks. Derek.

Q: Can you please comment on CAE latest earnings released today. Was there anything of particular interest to note from the call the call (either good or bad)? What is your view of this company after this latest report (buy/add, hold, sell, or trim like you did with model portfolio)?
