Q: Can you please explain your enthusiasm for ROKU? Every time I think of following your advice and buying I can’t help wondering how long it will be before Google and Amazon and the TV manufacturers squeeze ROKU out. I see it similarly to my reluctance to buy into Bombardier when hey were trying to manufacture jets…it seemed like only a matter of time before “the big boys” (Boeing and Airbus) squeezed them out of the business. And they did.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I currently hold FSLY in my RRSP (3%) and Non-reg (5%) accounts. My average holding cost is approx. $65. I have only been a DIY investor for approx 2yrs and I purchased this stock with the intention to hold 5-8 years.

I would appreciate your opinion on FSLY at this point in time in terms of Risk/Reward and whether my funds would be better deployed elsewhere.

I am beginning to question my original thesis on the company due to high debt ratio and the possibility of bigger market players targeting FSLY should they continue to succeed on a larger scale. The past/future volatility in the stock price does not concern me as much.

Thank you in advance.

Q: Hi - it's been a while since I've seen comments on SHW so wanted to know your current thoughts as it approaches its earnings release in a couple of weeks. Does it seem to be a bit pricey based on it's historical valuations? Do you have any concerns about this qtr and their possible upcoming commentary? Is it a price taker or setter. Bottom line...any concerns in near term and especially since market seems to be in mode for beating down high multiple stocks. Thanks as always

Q: I have always been hesitant to invest in the auto industry for various reasons but I am thinking with all the shortages of new cars which will continue for quite some time that perhaps now might be a good time to invest. Would you agree with this line of thinking and would it be better to invest in the car manufacturers or the parts makers like Magna?
