Q: What are your thoughts on Avalara? Is this a 5+ year hold? My investment thesis is over the long term online cross border shopping and digital currencies will require sophisticated taxation software. Governments will eventually require sale tax filings at point of sale which this software can accommodate. Thanks!

Q: I understand that dividends on US-listed ETFs that hold US stocks, if held in a taxable account, are taxed as interest income. Would the same hold for individual US stocks?

Q: Hello,

I am a long suffering holder of Vector Group Ltd. (VGR:US). The company seem to steadfastly pay out a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per share and has done so for many years running. Despite that fact, the company's share price seems to be in an almost continual, slow decline (much like VET).

I would very much appreciate your thoughts on Vector Group's recent earnings announcement. If possible, I would also appreciate your thoughts about the likelihood of Vector Group being able to continue to pay out the $0.40 per share, per quarter, for the foreseeable future.

Thank you!

Q: Hello Team,
I am overweight in technology growth names and have been caught in this “sector rotation” from growth to value. My question is do I now hold steady and ride out the storm, or trim back my growth holdings and switch to value? I am a buy and hold investor typically and believe the names I am invested in are best in class in what they do, and believe the way the world is going that technology will continue to advance and should be where the biggest growth is now and into the foreseeable future. So, with the names listed do I buy more , hold, or sell?Thanks for your input on the matter.
