Q: Your sudden sell recommendation on abt totally shocked me.
Your thesis has always has been to invest over the longer term.
This stock was your favorite not to long ago and now all of a sudden management is lousy and you have no confidence in abt anymore.
Other people you tell to wait a couple more months ,see if things turn around.
My question,did you ever talk to management?did you visit their offices?
You mention it as a take over candidate....which companies could take this over?
Are their growth prospects taken longer then expected,or is it not expected at all?
Is the dididend safe?

Q: This may fall into the category of a question that can't be specifically answered, but can you tell me why Micron Technologies P/E is so low at 7.5? Currently Apple trades at 18, NVDA is at 48 and Google is at 59. MU has good income growth and profitability but seems to trade at a much lower multiple than its peers.

Q: I've followed this stock from $15 through $35 and back to $20. It seems like it's in the right industry, holds cash, has low debt, has been increasing both revenue and earnings (from what I can tell) but just can't get itself together.

Despite its 'widow maker' status, when is it just to cheap to pass up? When does it get bought out?

Q: Hi, do you see anything alarming in BOX's recent release?
The market has shaved close to 20% off the stock price today. Would this be a good time to take an initial position (I generally buy in 1/3's for initial positions), assuming it is still a good representative in the cloud space.
I have reviewed the prior questions on this company and it was deemed as favourable in recent comments wrt to the cloud companies.

Cheers,
Steve

Q: I have too many question to ever use them up, so please consider this three separate queries. I have a high risk tolerance and follow my portfolio extremely closely. Technology is one of the few sectors performing well recently and I would like your opinion on whether these would be investments or gambles. Are any of these worth a full position (5%) or a half position. Or are there ideas you currently like better.
Thanks for all you do, this service is the reason I'm retired.
