Q: I currently have a small loss on a small position in Elevance Health. Very poor momentum in the stock currently. I am considering a switch to UNH, but note that it trades at 2x the PE of ELV. What are your thoughts on adding to to ELV at these levels? Or adding at lower levels once it levels off? Would you make a switch to UNH, or abandon this particularly area of the healthcare space for another area such as devices or biotech?

Q: May I have your latest thoughts on SYM? Has its momentum improved? Are they still reducing their debt, generating positive cash flow and increasing their top line revenue? Are insiders increasing their positions? Still an “show me” story? Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jim

Q: I hold NVDA (7.5%), VRT (7%), MSFT (5.5%), AMZN (7%), and GOOG (5%)- all up significantly in registered accounts. Question #1: what is the maximum weight you would be comfortable holding of each of these five stocks? Question #2: I also hold LMN (2.5%), which is barely above water. Deeply disappointed in its recent performance and considering replacing it with either ISRG or AVGO. That said, I'm concerned that adding AVGO puts too many eggs in the AI basket, given my other holdings. If this were your portfolio, would you opt to replace LMN with either ISRG or AVGO? Please explain why.

Q: I sold my SMCI around mid June and put the proceeds into the above stocks. Overall I'm pleased with their performance and am now thinking of holding same over the longer term 2-3 years rather than a momentum play. Do you see any glaring red flags going forward other than wars, election fallout and a possible recession that one should consider with these stocks. By the way thanks for your recommendation of VERT. Regards david
