Q: Good Afternoon I am looking for your thoughts on VISA,

I held it pre-covid as I love the type of business it is and the margins it has, and at the times I figured with trends and expecting e-commerce to grow steadily I felt it was a good long term hold and certainly still do. Now with Covid transforming the way we live our lives, I feel like its dominant position as a payment processor should only help its business, with the accelerated growth taking place in e-commerce and contactless payments. The stocks is essentially even since Jan 2020, PayPal is up over 100%. I own both so I am not complaining and I get why PayPal is up a ton, as its more of a true cash-less play with bitcoin helping it gain more exposure. But any reason as it why it has lagged so much?

Considering Visa's moat, financial health and the fact that consumer trends are aligning perfectly with its business, where would you rank Visa in the realm of the other large cap stocks (FAANGM etc)? top 10, 15,20.... I look at it as "set it and forget it" stock for 15+years but I am very tempted to add more. Have a great weekend!

Q: Howdy,

AYX seems to be at a crossroad. It may turn things around and resume high growth by upgrading their cloud offering or perhaps be displaced due to their older server based software architecture. Should I sell AYX to initiate a position in NVDA or increase an existing CRWD position? Or just stay put with AYX to see how it turns out? Appreciate your opinion.

Thanks.

Q: I currently own some ARKG and CRSP. If you were to buy a few more individual stocks in this space and had a long term time frame and high risk tolerance what would you buy?

Q: I believe MITK earnings are coming out later this week and I’m wondering what your opinion is on picking up a small position before earnings and possibly adding to it after earnings. Do you feel earnings could be better than estimates and maybe it makes more sense to buy a larger position before they come out or just wait and buy after we see the results of their earnings.
Thanks John

Q: Hi 5i team,
I follow a number of communications and 5G stocks. CLFD rose 13% yesterday but I see no news on it. As I understand it, CLFD is more or less a picks and shovels player for fibre networks, providing the glass enclosure. So, I do not know if it has any competitive advantages or not. I just thought I would get your opinion on it. I do not see it in your database.
Thanks again for the insight.
Dave
