Q: Hi team,

With 22 tech stocks weighting some 34% of my portfolio, I assume you would recommend that I rationalize my approach for a better diversification, both in my tech sector and in my portfolio as a whole.

To accomplish that, while keeping a strong growth approach, could you indicate which are, in your view, 1) the « must own » stocks, in order of importance 2) those which could be dropped because of « double emploi » or high risk, 3) those missing to properly cover the tech sector ?

Please feel free to use as many credits as you see fit.

Gratefully yours,

Jacques IDS

Q: I have to add US tech exposure (missed the boat) and only 4 percent which translates to $350,000. I already have 60 holding (total portfolio) which is already high but I’m ok with it given the size of my portfolio. Which would you pick? Should I just buy all 4 at 1 percent holding increasing to 64 holdings or pick just 1 or 2?

Q: Rank the following stocks in which you would own/purchase for growth over next 5 plus years, sector and risk are not a priority.

Also what are you thoughts on recent earnings for RKT and also regarding the billion dollar buyback they announced if yahoo is correct and their float is 112 million (assuming because of IPO lots of stock are in lockup?) with share price of $21.6. That accounts for roughly 41.3 percent of the outstanding shares. Is this a big move for a event ipo... is it bullish?

Q: I own trade desk, roku, magnite and google (thank you all for great advice) that all popped due to a strong return to advertising. This coincided with the election results and it made me wonder if some of the pop would be a result of massive ad spending from the Republicans and Democrats? If so, would the end of that $ flow affect earnings in following quarters or is it minor or non-existent in the recent advertisement boost to these companies? Thanks as always. Brian

Q: What are your thoughts on OSTK? Would you start a position with a less than a 1 year outlook? It has had quite the year given COVID, but unsure how it would fare in a post covid world and where it ranks for crypto. Any recommendations you have as alternatives with a high short term growth potential (albeit with higher associated risk) would be welcome.
