Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi Peter and crew. I know that US tech companies are "not in your wheel house" and I also know that you have great insight. so I am interested in your opinions on the following.
I am watching that both Rivian and Global Foundries Inc. are applying to the SEC this fall to go public. Both appear to be in a good space for long term trends/needs. I am interested in long term investing in these companies when they come to market.
Thoughts?
BTW - Peter, Loved the article in the FP about your father-in-law. Maybe the 2 above companies will give him " the action" he is looking for!

Q: I have an interest in Circle (https://www.circle.com/en/) – expected to go public sometime before end of year.

I really like what they are doing. I have not invested in any cryptocurrencies before but believe that a stablecoin/this stablecoin is on the right track as they are working closely with regulators, are trying to be transparent….

1 – Your thoughts re this company are appreciated (if you have any background on this company).
2 – The IPO is being handled via a SPAC – with Concord Acquisition Corp. If I acquire stock in Concord (ticker symbol CND in the US) am I acquiring the equivalent of Circle ahead of its IPO? My understanding is that a SPAC can only acquire one company and if that is the case, is it the same as acquiring Circle (ahead of its IPO)?

Thank You.

Q: A few months have gone buy since this company listed and I see no questions on it. Can I get your thoughts on HAYW now that they have reported a couple of quarters. The price has had a bit of a hit, but the Q2 didn't look too bad. How would you consider the growth potential for HAYW? Is there still some settling out that needs to occur or would this be a good time to jump in?

Q: I had bought this when the SPAC mania was high with the belief that this SAPC from Goldman Sacs would be a good investment and provide a decent gain as well as an Initial buy-in into a great company as people like us just cant get in any decent IPO..
Unfortunately, this too has dropped and I'm almost 20% down. Is there any news as to which company they are pursuing and please advise if I should hold or sell this and invest in a growth stock, as they are back in favor.

thank you as always your advise and guidance.

Q: I see price has been lowered and share count increased- surprising given the
ESG and renewables play. Are we seeing a top in the space or just a few too many issues flooding the market. Would you be a buyer here
