Q: Hi,
I think UPST was down on every possible metric in its earnings report. Did you see anything at all positive? Do you still see it as a Hold?
Thanks
Q: Hi! Doing some cleaning up and wondering if these are buy, sell, or hold. In reference to Shane's comments I also agree that it wasn't too long ago that so many advisors were recommending growth stocks at lofty prices. Having always been a more of a value investor I dipped my toes, but am feeling like I'd be too scared to ever enter any kind of a growth stock again. I know if interest rates peak you feel these can do well again but only time will tell and many investors have lost lots of money on the high growth names like in Cathy Wood's funds. Happy to hold any of these names if there could ever be a turn around. Thank you!
Q: It would seem that the future looks bright for the nuclear industry focusing on small modular reactor (SMR) technology. I would appreciate your thoughts on investable (and hopefully potentially highly profitable) companies in this area. Thanks very much for this great service. Dan
Q: I have a few questions on PLTR. What annual revenue growth rate has the company set and what will it achieve if it meets its q4 revenue target? What affect has the employee remuneration in shares having on total shares outstanding? The optics of PLTR missing analysis estimates each quarter is problematic. Do you believe the company will improve it's ability to meet or exceed analysts estimates (and its own) or do they just don't care? Maybe there is a better explanation for these misses. Alex Karp ses to revel in and seek out a guru status, but can he deliver the results he promises. He certainly isn't conservative in setting targets and seems to have new explanations each quarter for missing expectations he has set. That said, the business is growing, I'm just not sure how investable the stock is. I am considering selling at a loss in a registered account, but can hold for a very long time if the value of shares could improve over time.
Q: I’m losing patience with Disney after another poor quarter and poor management performance. I don’t want to give up on the franchise, but wondering if holding this stock at a time is costing me staying out of other opportunities at this his time. What are your thoughts on Disney? Hold or sell and move on?
Q: I have been doing a deeper dive on the result from CRWD and NVEI, both have increased their share compensation to employees substantially in the last year. As an investor do you have any concerns, I am wondering how much of the future gains will go to shareholders?
BYND released outlook that they will be cash flow positive by the2nd half of 2023. Are there data estimates to suggest they have enough cash on hand to survive without any new capital for the next few quarters?
Q: Hell of 5I,
I currently own NVEI and am wondering if PayPal has the same or more upside in your opinion. Also the executive pay is out of whack I read. Is this true or a one off.
Thanks
