Q: Good morning,
I currently hold BABA.US in my RRSP and was considering a switch to AMZN.US. In an effort to further reduce risk while maintaining a tech component in my overall diversified portfolio, I'm now looking at selling my current BABA.US holdings and buying either QQQ.US or XLK.US which both hold some AMZN.US.
What are your thoughts on this potential move and of the two ETFs mentioned, which would you recommend and why?
I thank you and look forward to your response.

Q: It looks to me that SHOP is a bubble. I have no doubt that it has a great potential, but I do not see how I can justify the actual valuation. If I assume a 30 % annual sales growth, a 30 % net profit in the future and a valuation at 30 times the EPS, it would take 7 years to justify the actual valuation. Please correct me if I am off the track. Thanks.

Q: Quarterhill wins the Apple court case (again) and has been awarded $85.M
Can Apple appeal this judgement? This must be considered a substantial amount of money going into the QTRH coffers. What would you think this should do to the value of the company? It seemed someone knew about the award before qtrh halted the stock yesterday as the stock price jumped and
volume was over eight times the average.

Q: LSPD is a medium sized cap stock, less than $10 billon in market value. In general terms what does that mean for investment managers like: market size, investment strategies, company sector categories etc. When it gets to be a large cap stock, greater than $10 billon market cap, what does that mean for investment managers. Will more managers be buying the the stock to get their sector quota or and will it be followed by international investment firms etc,

Q: I bought a smallish position in MU after Peter had it as a top pick on BNN last year. It has done well thank you. I always considered it as a trade rather than a long term hold. Your BNN comments today confirmed this. I am aware of your views on market timing. What conditions or at what point would it be best to trigger a sale or partial sale? I hold it in an RRSP so here are no tax consequences. Thanks very much, Frank

Q: I own LSPD and am up 30%+. Would you recommend staying the course with Lightspeed or selling and purchasing KXS? This represents the 2% of my portfolio I allocate to higher risk equities. (In my TFSA so capital gains is not an issue.) Thank you.
