Q: hi,
thank you for, and this question is in reference to, the answer to the "baby Mag 7" question a few days ago by "JR". are you able to do a short analysis of these 7, compared to the "adult" Mag 7 in regards current and future valuation, growth, debt/equity metrics. further, do you have any guess on the timeline of googl/meta etc.'s development/utilization of their own AI chips in house?
take as many points off as needed, this question seems like a bad homework assignment to me!
thanks Chris

Q: Just a comment - thanks! Most of my questions have usually been about when something for me has gone wrong…well this one seems to be working. Honestly, if it weren’t for your positive comments, not only may I never have bought it but I would’ve sold as soon as I had a small profit. The same is true for nvda - another awesome name that you’ve stuck with for years even when things looked downright gloomy! Thanks be to 5i.

I could not find Maplebear inc in you r data base.... Could you provide any insight/opinion to the following comments by wolfe research and the possibility of a potential acquisition ....

" the stock has rallied 13% so far this year, aided in part by a Wolfe Research analyst call last week that suggested Instacart could be a good acquisition target for Uber. Instacart last week declined to comment on the rumor. "
