Q: My question has two aspects. One genral and another one specific
First. numerous analysts and professional investors (and not necessary professional short term traders) use to claim a golden rule saying if a company following poor results in the earnings season, slides 10% or about, you sell immediately and the sooner the better. What is your position on this issue?
Second. What kind of application could be envisaged in the specific case of a stock like Cloudflare with a recent splash of more than 17%?

Thank you very much in advance

Q: Hi,
We have held a small position of PLTR since the IPO. Could you please comment on PLTR’s earnings? Street is obviously not happy. Thinking about switching to VRT. Which company do you think is better going forward PLTR or VRT? We already own NVDA, Google and Meta.
Thanks!

Q: Hi, I would appreciate your current view and level of conviction on this company. Based on numerous comments, it's been a 5i favorite for quite some time, although, stock pulled back from its highs, during the month of April. Stock price seems to stabilize a bit for past week or so. Utilities ( Power producers, specifically) also seem to be slowing finding some favour, possibly due to expectation of incredibly large demand for electricity/power from Data centres, over next 10 years or longer.

Would you consider this co. to be a good fit to have an exposure to this area and if so, whether the recent concerns have been mitigated and what price levels would you suggest to start a position.

Thank You

Q: Good morning 5i
A number of people have commented on the large amount of cash that Berkshire is holding and worry about it. Mr. Buffet says they haven’t seen much to swing at and mentions that it is not a bad time to hold cash, given numerous unresolved and potentially dangerous situations in the world at the moment. I realize that Mr. Buffet has much more money than the average investor and that makes buying significant assets more difficult. I would be interested in your take on this?
With appreciation

Q: I used to own NVDA at <$100/share and foolishly sold it around $300 USD before it started to climb vertically. I am now too chicken to buy back in. What would be some names to own in the AI and Semi conductor theme that are still reasonably priced? Or would you suggest sitting out of this theme for now?
I already own MSFT and GOOG.

Q: Can you account for the recent drop in TMO and possibly also for its quick recovery.

Portfolio analytics call for more in my healthcare sector. Do you prefer ETFs or individual companies here?

Please recommend a few of your favourite quality long-term holds for both (more American than Canadian, but both if possible).

Thanks as always.
