Q: I am thinking of putting a substantial portion of my portfolio in the MAGA stocks Microsoft, Amazon, Google and Apple + Facebook. I understand that this will not be diversified as probably most would like to be but these stocks have performed incredibly over the past 10-20 years and I don't see much changing in the future. Any thoughts on this strategy other than lack of diversification.

Q: I have a follow up question on NKLA (thanks for the very quick response by the way).

Just wondering how you would interpret the fact that the there is such a divergence between the at the money put and call prIces. For example, at $65 strike, July call last traded at $7.20 while put traded at $31.20. Is option market telling you something quite different than stock market? Is such divergence from put-call parity common?

Thx,

Steven

Q: Will the new arrangement SHOP has with WMT hurt it's business with AMZN? and why?

Steven Roach was speaking yesterday and says that he feels that with what the fed actions are and have been he sees the US$ retracing by 35% in the future. Do you agree and why? Also, what do you reccommend 5i readers do if they have substantial money invested in US equities?

Thanks

Sheldon

Q: I own IBM but not the others. Do you think the Red Hat acquisition will result in IBM significantly narrowing the performance gap between itself and the others. Respective dividend yields are not an issue.

Q: Hi, I see online education as a growing theme for the future. I was wondering if there are any growing companies in this sector you could suggest other than GOOG and MSFT..I was looking at a company call D2L but seems it is not listed.

On another topic, what are your thoughts about the upcoming IPO of Palantir..it seems to be nice investment opportunity. With a great leader, I read a book by Peter Thiel ..he seems to be a of a very high caliber. I have great respect for him.

Cheers,

Shyam

Q: Hi 5i team,
CLDR has been on my watch lists for awhile. It seems to be at a decent valuation on P/S for a cloud stock. In the past week or so, it has been subject to some takeover speculation by IBM. I don’t like buying a company just on takeover speculation, but it is a nice kicker if the underlying fundamentals of the company are solid. Is CDLR a decent buy in the data management space and what is your outlook from here?
Thanks again for the insight.
Dave
