Q: Hi team ,
Once again Pinterest is crashing. I was hopeful things were on the uptrend with the name lately. Is this another earnings over reaction? I thought the Amazon partnership was quite interesting for transforming the platform into a e-commerce enabled site…potentially very lucerative once it gets going. But, market not liking results. Should I keep patience with this name or dump? Part of the reason I was holding was I believed this name will be taken over at some point at a much higher share price.

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: Dear Peter,

This question is based on your excellent article in Canadian Money Saver Nov/Dec 2015! How time flies, eh?! Titled: Setting up a US income portfolio with call options.

Several years ago I had asked if you have written any follow articles on this strategy? If you have, please post the links for all of your subscribers. That would be helpful.

But my question is this:
Based on the criteria that you highlighted in that article if you had to choose Five stocks what would those stocks be today?

I am semi retired senior citizen who can allocate 10-15% of my portfolio to this strategy.

Many thanks in advance.
Mano.

Q: Hi there, I've been holding nxpi at a loss for about 2 years now and I'm getting fed up. I am into it at about $200 a share. Would you suggest that I hold? It had a run up to the $180s in Feb but has since fallen back. I find it painful as it seems to fall all the time. Should I hold and wait and see or move on? Thank you,

Jason

Q: You have taken some heat on WELL and some other small caps, so I thought we would throw in a comment for some balance. In mid March I was thinking of taking a flyer on FRC and you were very cautious about such an idea. You said, and I paraphrase, 'we don't like stocks than can potentially go to zero'. That was enough to keep me on the sidelines. Now, FRC is down about 65% since then, and might not make it through the weekend. I wanted to thank you for your advice, and sometimes the 'don't buys' are good as or better than the buy ideas. Thank you for your service and keep up the good work.

Q: I am considering a purchase of ON Semiconductor. It has been pulling back significantly and this is making me question if I should buy. What factors would you highlight for buying or staying away?

Q: I hold the following in loss positions and need to raise some money and sell 2 of these dogs. In the past I have sold my winners hoping for recovery on the losers but I am trying to fight the psychology of that tendency. Could you rank these in with the 1st ranked being the highest conviction sell. Also, if inclined perhaps you could comment and provide your perspective on this most annoying human trait. John

Q: Hi, I was interested to read the question and answer you had yesterday on whether you would pick google over Microsoft (you sided with google). I hold google at a loss (down around 15%). I have been concerned by the argument that ai search will ultimately harm google’s main income source - it’s search engine. One analyst even said google is at risk of cannibalizing its own business with its ai search engine. The other argument against google was that it has only market share to lose against the bing/Microsoft challenge. Can you address these arguments? The fear seems to be that google is a potential candidate for being the next yahoo or Kodak which of course is a little premature to call but that seems to be the bear argument on google.

Thank you.

Q: This company is Delinquent in its filings. Should I sell it? I noticed in a previous question you were positive on this stock as a hold, do you remain so?

Q: What are your thoughts on Newmont for a long term hold? I'm holding ARIS and thinking to swap out as I'm an income investor.

Q: I have this as very small percentage of porfolio. Is there any hope or reasons to hold it or else take the tax loss and move to more attractive risk/reward. Could it recover well in a lower rates environment?
Thank you.

Q: I am interested in investing in companies that are leaders in developing AI. So far I have identified GOOG, MSFT, NVDA, and AMD. Do you agree with this list and are you able to add to it? I have seen AMZN, AAPL, IBM and META with regard to AI, but are they simply users of AI rather than developers?
Thank you.

Q: Hello

Q: I have held this stock for a few years and I am getting impatient. I guess I bought it at the wrong time, I am considering getting out. If I do exit do you have another health care company that you would recommend. Your overall thoughts please. Thanks
