Q: Would appreciate your comments on the 3rd quarter 2023 financial results for WCN, Waste Connection Inc. The drop in the stock value would seem to indicate
that the market was disappointed. Is it still worth holding or has the outlook changed?
Thank you for your information.

Q: Hi,

I hold CWW and have decided I'd like to instead concentrate my "water" holdings on two stocks: AWK and XYL. Are there any obvious red flags with these two companies? I know there is no comparison between and ETF and individual stocks.

Thank you. Michael

Q: Hi,

I hold VIG and have decided I'd like to instead concentrate my holdings on two stocks: UNH and V. Are there any obvious red flags with these two companies. I know there is no comparison between and ETF and individual stocks. Sector is not a concern.

Thank you. Michael

Q: What would be your one pick of smci, shopify or bkng? I see these are all liked by you. I am looking to add one more growth name to my holdings and not not concerned about what sector. I am leaning towards smci which I have bought and sold in the past but have not held as it seems to have big ups and draw downs which makes me nervous. Thanks,

Jason

Q: Sooner than later the US Congress and Senate will have to deal with the US debt ceiling. One option is to cut expenditure for certain categories, like health care or medical expenditures. With this in mind, I searched for revenue from the US Federal Government for each of the health stocks that I hold but with no luck. Did this as I think that if such revenue is cut for such healthcare stocks the price of the stock could decline. Can you estimate such revenue received for each of these stocks - ABBV, ABT, BSX, ISRG, SYK, UNH and ZTS? Or do you know a source for such information? .......Thanks for the assistance.......Tom
