Investment Q&A

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

Q: https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2026/02/ai-demand-and-profits-are-better.html

This comment is to replace the two I sent yesterday. Please delete them.

I wanted to rewrite to say that these charts and video from A16z (venture investors Andressen Horowitz) are a very interesting look at what is happening with Ai. The video goes through the charts with commentary which I think is good.

Thank You
Peter

Q: Will you please let your members know if you see any significant insider buys from the Csu family as this could be the bell ringer for the bottom? What is a good site to track insider moves?

Thx

Q: Reflecting on the Software apocalypse... Given that most trading has been automated for years, I assume that it is now largely AI driven.

A question asked only partly tongue in cheek, is it possible that trading AI's see the software companies as adversaries and the stock market as one avenue of attack?

Q: Hello Team 5i & Everyone,

If anyone is interested in a "roadmap" for how new technologies (ie, railroad, electively, telephone, internet, AI, etc) have historically been adopted into society - I'm currently reading this book on the subject: "Technological Revolutions and Financial Capital: The Dynamics of Bubbles and Golden Ages" by Carlota Perez.

It's become a popular reference point for the implementation of AI.

Thanks,

Sandra

Q: In your answer to Kevin’s February 13 question about AI outfits scraping and using proprietary information, you referred to the legal consequences to doing that; there is currently an application to a Court in California to approve a $1.5 Billion settlement by Anthropic for copyright infringement by authors and publishers. Presumably that kind of amount will be something of a guardrail.

Q: Dear Peter et al:

You have alluded to poor "Sentiment" as an important factor in poor performance of certain stocks. (CSU & it's off springs plus SaaS companies)

What kind of metrics and tools that you use to measure "Sentiment"?
Price or volume or Technical indicators or any other tools from proprietary services?

Many thanks.

Q: You guys must be getting annoyed with all the questions on these companies, but I will press my luck with one more from a slightly different angle. I own them and I am trying to determine how low they go if earnings and commentary show any kind of slowdown. I am trying to better understand the risk/reward in continuing to hold versus just stepping aside until there is a clear reversal in trend. I am thinking that if there is no growth or a reduction in sales and earnings these could still fall much further, and I am hoping for your thoughts on how much.
Thanks

Q: Hello, I have recently invested in CSU (2 months) and saw the stock price go down by a third so far. In your crystal ball, do you believe there could be a catalyst at earnings’ time, to get the share price jumping? Is there a chance they might do a conference call, for once? I am tempted to sell for tax loss reasons, but it would be frustrating to see the price jump 10-20% afterwards… Thanks
