Q: I bought shares in this company last week hoping for a good earnings announcement yesterday. The earnings were a little lower than expected and the stock is down roughly 8% from my average cost. I don't see that any questions have been asked about this company before and am interested in your thoughts. Is this one worth holding onto? Thank you as always.

Q: I came across this company while running a few screens over the weekend. Growth is impressive, and they're in a rapidly growing niche. It is acquisitive and reminds me somewhat of the DOCKs here in Canada. I know it's on the small side and that US stocks aren't your specialty, but can you give it a quick look and let me know if you agree with my findings? If you approve, I'll likely make it a 3-4% weighting.

Q: Thanks to good advice from 5i, my tech stocks have done well enough to make up close to 40% of my holdings! Within the sector, these are my waitings:
CSU - 12%, KXS - 12%, SHOP - 11%, CLS - 5%, GOOGL - 9%, SQ - 11 %, AAPL - 10 %, NVDA - 9%, AMZN - 15%, and SPOT - 6%.
Some of these are broadly spaced within the sector, and I hate to let any of them go, but I’m getting a bit nervous about vulnerability to a general tech turndown. Do you have suggestions for me?

Q: Granted there isn't much to analyze given that IPOA is still a SPAC that has yet to announce an acquistion, what are 5I's thoughts based on the people involved and what, apart from announcing a bad deal, would be the down side?

Thank You
