Q: Hello and thank you. I’d like to add some exposure to video gaming in my portfolio. Would you have any concerns starting a new 5% position in GAMR at this point for a 10 plus year hold? This would keep my tech targets within limits I’m comfortable with.

Q: I would appreciate your advice upon IPGP. I have held this stock for a number of years and still show a small profit of 18%. However it has declined severely in the past year and is very volatile. Would you continue to hold? If not, would you suggest a couple of possible replacements.
Thanks for your help.

Q: This name had a run up to about $107 (when I bought) and has since pulled back. They announce earnings next week. Any idea why it’s down other than general market issues? It makes me concerned that it’s going down so much prior to earnings release. Should I sell or hold? It’s in my rrsp so should be long term but I have an aversion to holding a losing position and don’t know what to do. Thanks.

Q: Would you consider this is a good growth stock to add to a portfolio after the latest earnings? Revenue growth looks to be increasing faster, and guidance was increased. They have a good track record with beating earnings too. Can you add any insights on their management team?

I’m looking for my next TEAM, AYX, TTD, RPD all of which I own thanks to you! Any other tech suggestions in the US?

Thanks

Q: May I please get your thoughts on Smith Micro Software Inc (SMSI)? Recently reported results that the market reacted very positively to. Should I wait for the dust to settle a bit or do these results lend credence to starting a small speculative position (0.5-1%) for the high risk allocation of my portfolio at current price levels?

Q: I'm down 23% on this one. I don't want to take a loss and am willing to hold long term. Do you thing that's the right decision. Do you think management is reasonably solid. Is raising the dividend prudent given that they had a rough quarter. looks like this is a last gesture that the CEO put out as he rides into the sunset.
