Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi Team,
Atz beat earnings and things appear to be going strong on all fronts for the business…yet the stock tanks some more today. Is this one of those disconnects where an investor should be buying more shares ?
Also …with the brutal tech selloff what are some of todays choices to buy for potential multi bagger over the next few years once the carnage stops? Thanks!

Q: I am down about 30% with Keysight. I am thinking of selling it to harvest the loss and purchasing Qualcomm in place.

QCOM is much bigger and has a noticeably lower P/E (14.87 v. 27.10) somewhat better Price to Cash Flow (17.9 v. 21.3);

But QCOM has a higher P/B (12.18 v. 6.87) and while not worrisome, a noticeably higher Debt / Equity ratio( 1.8 v. 0.53).

Which matrix would you use to evaluate these 2 companies?

Which of the 2 do you see having a better prospect going forward?

Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: I own WISH as a portion of my speculative portfolio. Last Wednesday it reported what I thought was another good Q - continued acquisitions, rev up 107%, GP up 119%, Gross Margins of 68% (up from 63%). The stock has continued to tank since the announcement and is down 19% from the day before it announced and down over 50% from its 52 wk high. Am I missing something to this story and the stock is indeed undesirable for some reason, or is the market miss pricing this one? They seem to be doing everything right but I may be missing something and would love your perspective.
Many thanks
Scott

Q: Hi,
I'm currently holding all of these at a loss, mostly in RSP's - so the loss, if taken, won't be helpful tax wise. I'm aware you are still recommending GSY, but assume that is because at this point it is a reasonably buy. It has been a particular disappointment for me, as I purchased near the recent highs, so I wonder if the remaining capital I have might be better in the energy sector, as I do hold other financials. SNAP and SBUX are looking a bit more like they will take a very long time to show positive momentum - would you agree? Or do you feel it is worth holding onto all of these? I don't need the cash, I'm just wondering if it would be more prudent to stop the day by day reduction in principal, in particular when there are options such as ENB that pay a sizeable dividend in a more positive sector.
Many thanks for your thoughts, as they are always appreciated.

Q: I have a full position in AMZN as well as half positions in both SHOP and BABA (which actually began as full positions). I'm thinking I may have overdone it a bit in the on-line consumer shopping space. Would you continue to hold all of these and if not how would you suggest reducing my exposure?
Thanks
