Q: What is your view on NFLX at this point? The recovery has been very nice, but I am wondering it is getting close to pull-back again. The increase in pricing will help earnings, but could they be doing that to offset a slowdown in sign-ups? Also, competition seems to be coming fast and furious now. Your thoughts?

Thanks

Q: Hello
Is there a low volatility ETF traded in US similar to BMO's ZLU?
It is my understanding that if the Canadian dollar appreciates against the US dollar the increase in value of the ZLU will be eroded. Am I right on this?
Thank you for your ongoing assistance

Q: Hi there,

This stock has not recovered at all and seems to be heading down further. I have owned for a long time but this trading pattern seems a bit unusual. Is there some news i have missed. From what i can tell from the last quarters report, all of its business lines are expected to continue growing for the next 3+ years.

Thoughts?

Q: Hi team,

ROKU crashed last fall with a lot of tech. It is a very volatile stock, even for tech, as it reacts to every headline. I bought a small position again a couple of weeks ago, before the CES, expecting some positive announcements. There were several, including active users and streaming hours up nicely, a new partnership with Westinghouse TV and a new partnership with TCL on 8K TVs. Then, as usual, the rally was cut short by Andrew Left with a negative tweet about it regarding further AMZN inroads. He keeps going long or short on ROKU, I assume just after he bought or sold short.

Cord-cutting keeps accelerating, and ROKU has a strong position but in a highly competitive field with AMZN, NFLX and now Hulu gaining traction. It is also viewed in the M&A picture for a bigger tech/media player this year. What are your thoughts on it at this point?

Thanks again,
Dave

Q: I have been watching Weight Watchers (WTW) ever since Oprah put her considerable marketing support behind the company and it seemed to beat estimates quarter after quarter. I felt like I missed the boat when it went from $12 to $105 from Jan 2017 - June 2018. Ever since it has dropped like a rock to its present $35 price. My questions are 1) what caused this huge fall and is it over sold? 2) what are the current EPS estimates and PE? 3) when do they report next? 4) what is their debt load and is it manageable? and finally 5) do you think it offers a compelling entry point?

Many thanks
Scott
