Investment Q&A

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

Q: In their recent press release shorting SHOP, Citron says they will donate $200k to the Robin Hood Foundation if the stock is higher one year from today. (Google search says there is a charitable Robin Hood Foundation)

Although the Citron downgrade of SHOP is not new the placing of a bet on the outcome is new - at least to me. Assuming it is legal, have you ever seen this done before? Does Citron actually pay the money if they are wrong? Is this a material amount to Citron or just the cost of doing business to them? If this is for real, should I diarize March 2020 to note that another short attack on SHOP will be forthcoming if Citron is indeed wrong and need to cover their butts?

Appreciate yoru insight.

Q: Re Micron from RBC, " Though the industry is experiencing positive sales growth as a whole, MU has been unable to grow sales and is losing market share. This trend continues from the previous year when sales growth at MU and the Semiconductors industry were -20.62% and 3.53%, respectively. Also, " Joint venture partner Intel will be ending its partnership with Micron, which creates another competitor for Micron to deal with." Thoughts on the market share statement and any idea how big of an impact the ending of Intel relationship will be?

Q: Hi, several analysts started coverage of Lightspeed, yesterday with most price targets in the range of $25-$26 and Buy/Outperform ratings. Thank you for your analysis, in advance, during past 3 weeks. I have taken a small 1% position. The 1st set of earnings is not expected until May. Do you feel comfortable to build up the holding to 2% at current price, or it's prudent to wait until results ? Thanks
