Investment Q&A

Q: Hello 5i
I thought I asked this question but maybe it didn’t go through.
The last question on ROOT you indicated it looked good but it was very expensive.
Now that it has dropped 30+% how does it look?
Thank you
Dave

Q: What would you consider a good entry price for Netflix today?

Q: Good afternoon,

I have been purchasing ISRG on its' slide, taking advantage of lower price points then stopping a few months ago at 1/2 a position.

You provided some comment on the company last week, and I would like to follow up

- below what price do you view ISRG stock as a clear buy opportunity?
- would you buy in small bites if this decline continues or at this point hold until something catalyzes the stocks rise?
- what are the factors causing the continued downward drift at this time?

Thanks as always.

Dave

Q: I have a question about 442
why is ISRG down so much? thanks Richard

Q: This Tom Lee run company is modeled after Mr Saylor's MSTR but is based on ether instead of bitcoin. I own a small position in BMNR which though volatile is currently up from my entry price. You explained the value reduction of MSTR in a recent question based on competition. You referred to the investment approach in its current circumstances as "Ponzi-like." Could you explain your view on BMNR and whether it too has a Ponzi-like set up. Also if you held this equity would you sell and instead hold an ether ETF as a "safer" way to invest in ether as you recommended regarding MSTR and investing in bitcoin or is there a distinction between MSTR and BTMR such that you would continue to hold the latter. Appreciate your response.

Q: I have owned MRVL since the early days of the tech growth story. I felt it would be one firm that could grow their business exponentially as the tech story evolved. That has not been the case.

I would appreciate your opinion on MRVL as a future growth story, or should it fail to hold up to scrutiny, what 2 firms would fit my involvement in the story (if any). I hold NVDA, AMD, CLS, ASML, MSFT and PWR as representative of the buildout of the AI/Datacenter environment.

Thanks, as always, for your comments.

Q: I have owned ALNY for a couple of years now and it has done very well. As there are no other questions I assume you likely don't follow it. It recently spiked up again and I'm starting to get worried that I should sell some. I realize you can't give personal advice. However, can you provide me analytics that would help me to make a more informed decision. Thanks.

Q: Between ALAB and VRT which do you think will perform better for the next year?
Do you see either declining for the year?
Thank You

Q: At what level would you hold NBIS - full position, half position or…?

Q: Hi there, regarding your recent answer to fashion retailers, where in your opinion do you see price support for LULU being?

Also, where in your opinion do you see the bottom in a market correction where it becomes too irresistible to start adding for a full position?

Thanks!

Q: Considering buying SBUX because of its new leader. But I find LKNCY very attractive as well. - with good momentum this year.

What would your inclination be here? ….or both?

Thanks.

Q: could you confirm if Pagaya DOES NOT take any credit obligation from issuing personal loan asset-backed securities?
This was my ChatGPT research that provided this answer.
This would be an ideal business that just facilitates these transactions.
I put a laughably small amount into this stock so that i would not forget about it. I am up 23% and now want to initiate a 2% position.

Q: I know you have mentioned HOOD as a high conviction stock before. I haven’t followed it but have always thought of it as a bet on crypto. In doing some reading, I see the platform is quite popular among young people, not just for trading crypto but also for stock trading. It has recently expanded outside the US and just announced they are launching a social network. Could I please get your thought on the new social platform? Could it have huge potential? HOOD has had a huge runup and is now around its all-time high. Would you buy HOOD today? If so, would you want for a pullback? Thanks.

Q: If I hold NBIS and NVDA am I concentrating the same sector? My understanding is that NBIS owns hardware and "rents" or sells the use of that hardware. Who completes with NBIS? Is it Amazon and Google?

These seem, individually, as great companies but if AI sentiment shifts or another game-changing breakthrough happens it could be painful. Thoughts?

Q: Why the sudden rise today? Would you consider this a buy, sell or hold?

Thank you as always!!

Q: If OpenAi decided to go public in the next few years with a Market Cap of 1-2 trillion dollars, do you think this would launch Microsoft’s stock price? I’m guessing their original investment in OpenAi has compounded several times over.
Thanks

Q: I was reviewing INVH for income because portfolio is excessively growth oriented. INVH seemed to me well-positioned with good prospects for price appreciation. I also thought INVH could be a good inflation hedge. It seems I am wrong on all the above. The value of INVH shares is down by more than 12% over 6 months, and down by over 16% in the past year. Is something wrong with the business? Or do you attribute poor share performance to negative sentiment? The latter seems too simplistic a reason however. But if it really is just sentiment , do you expect investor attitudes to grow warmer towards boring income producing companies? Like many other investors, I continue to stay dangerously in love with growthy tech. I have been trying hard to shake off the addiction.

Is INVH a good candidate to offset a growth-oriented ‘portfolios? If not INVH, then do you have other suggestions for income ?
If not real estate , for income, under current conditions do you prefer mature slower growth dividend payers over REITs? ( I have no clue on bonds). I would appreciate suggestions on conservative income-producing securities that you like that are available at reasonable prices currently (US, Europe, UK). Prices to buy below at are *always* helpful .

Q: HI guys,

On CNBC last week Michael Saylor discussed MSTR and one of the things he mentioned was it was designed to be 2X BTC movement.

I'm talking short term history here, not over years.

In the past 5 days Mstr is -1.32%, 1 month it is -15.96% and the past 3 months it is - 13.43%

However BTC has performed past 5 days +4.67%, 1 month - 2.31% and 3 month +11.1%.

As you can see BTC has outperformed MSTR quite substantially over the recent past.

Why would you think this is happening? Is the MSTR trade done? What do you reccomend for BTC exposure?

Thanks


Sheldon
