Q: If you held Facebook, would you be concerned with the revelations coming out now from the whistleblower? Are you concerned that FB is going to be more heavily regulated in the future, which will impact revenues, and therefore share price?

I have a small gain as most of it has been wiped out. Not sure what to do with this one.

Thanks

Q: Hi Team,
I was debating whether I should sell PLTR to buy MORE of either NVEI or LSPD. Which do you see having more long term potential here? Or should I simply keep holding PLTR? It is a little frustrating watching it go from being up 14% after hours last night to only 1% as I write this. Seems like nothing wants to move the needle anymore with PLTR. Thanks

Shane.

Q: Thanks to rising oil prices, I have cashed out of an oil stock at the original price paid 5 years ago. I feel lucky to have done so as this is a sector I wish to avoid. This makes my TFSA ( small part of total portfolios and is my fun money ) 50 % cash.
Knowing that momentum is important to you, what are your thoughts on the momentum of the S&P 500 ? The growthy small caps seem to be out of favour at the moment. Do I wait until market sentiment has changed back or look at other larger growth stocks ? Your 3 suggestions for a risk oriented TFSA is appreciated. Derek

Q: Hi Peter,

SKLZ has been on a freefall for some time now. Its starting to look interesting to me, but i could be totally incorrect.

Its trading at ~6.1x EV/sales, has no debt and has about $1.72 in cash per share. It seems to be growing revenue quite well each quarter and has a high GP Margin of 95%.

Is this a quality stock that is now at a decent price? May I please get your take?

Thanks,

Q: Hi team,
I bought Verizon two years ago in expectation of a stable price and a good dividend. Two years later it is down 11% eating up the dividend and leaving me essentially where I started. Would it make sense to sell VZ and use the funds to buy IBM which has a similar dividend and perhaps some growth potential? I can also claim the tax loss on Verizon.

It’s seems to have been hammered pretty hard over the last few months, is there something I am missing?

Thanks for your excellent and unparalleled service!

Q: Hello,
I am wondering if you can weigh in on these two companies and make a case of which one (if either) are worthy of new money.

VTEX - recent IPO sitting just above IPO pricing. Sounds like a sort of baby Shopify with a Latin American focus and some major clients on board. Small market cap. Would you endorse this or stay away?

WRLD - Friday recommendation in another service and it sounds something like a small, US based version of GSY. It seems to be doing well and the stock price is reflecting that in recent months. Do you like or not and why?

I guess an overriding question would be if these small caps offer enough growth to justify not just putting money to work in SHOP (vs VTEX) or WRLD (vs GSY).
