Q: I own both of these companies, and would like to add more to my current positions. I know you like them both as long term investments. Do you prefer one over the other?

My other question is: What is your opinion about selling puts to add to these positions? Volatility is very high on both, so I would get a decent premium, and I (possibly)get to buy them at a much lower price. This just seems like win-win to me. Are there any risks in doing this that I'm not aware of? I am not using any margin for these purchases.

Thanks for all that you do

Q: I know you follow and like both adtech companies APPS and TTD but there have been no questions on applovin which seems to be a big player in this market as well + recent purchase of mopub. I was wondering your thoughts on this company and its outlook how would you compare it to apps and ttd and where would you rank it for growth potential?

Q: Would you be agreeable to selling BABA for tax loss and replacing it with PINTEREST? Baba is cheap but the China problem does not look like ending any time soon and Pinterest also looks attractive. Thankyou If you have a better tech idea feel free to mention it.

Q: I'm hearing that pharma and biotech company valuations are at multi year lows. With one chart showing the percentage of US biotechs with market caps below cash value is at a 25 year high, and by a wide margin. Do you feel this sector shows a big opportunity to get good companies for cheap in a sector that will one day improve? If so what companies look best to you in Canada or US? Are there any sectors that are more beaten up? Thx

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide the names of some beaten down stocks that have a decent chance of recovery over the next year or two. This is a relatively short timeline but I'm looking for companies that still have a good balance sheet, are well managed, have good prospects, and yet have still been caught in the downdraft along with the negative market sentiment. Any sector and any market cap but with a focus on small to mid-cap. Thank you.

Q: Based on todays prices, which of the beaten up tech is the "best" (most likely to do well moving forward, best monopoly / moat safety, most safe earnings, best books today, best P/E) to buy for a long term hold (over ten years)?

qualifying them on the above characteristics would be appreciated or any other variable that you feel is important.

If my list missed any other tech considerations, please let me know.

thanks

Ernie
