Q: Hello dear 5i,

I have a question that may seem silly. Here it is. When you talk about Shopify, you often talk about duopoly, but I can't find with whom they are, even by searching assiduously on the net.

thanks

Interest-paying vehicles are not preferred. Please provide your preferred strategy, specific names, and reasons.

Thanks so much for the invaluable service provided by 5i.

Q: What a remarkable market. GOOG has been my largest holding. I have a significant loss and am looking to take a tax loss. First, with a FOMO fear that it might bounce, I am thinking of selling 1/2 my position; if you were me, would you simply sell 100%? Second, would Apple be a suitable substitute? For 30 days or long term? Thanks much.

Want to sell GOOG and AMZN in my cash account for the tax loss.

Q: Hello 5i!
At this point in the cycle can you please rate the following as buy, sell or hold. I know you sometimes say in a different kind of market high growth can do well. Can you please comment on whether one should decrease technology holdings in general or just wait for tech to shine again one day. Thank you!

Q: In January, regarding the above to companies, you stated "We don't like the valuations in the sector (especially RIVN, LCID)..."
My question is, after a significant drop in both, and the requirements for European countries to move into EV's in the coming years, is it reasonable to take a small position in one or both to sit on the shelf for 10 years. Is there another co (next to Tesla) that might be a better "shelf" stock. Thanks!

Q: With the above four big tech companies above disappointing on earnings and being beaten up for it, is this the beginning of the tech earnings recession going forward? And do you think the stock market will begin to move more on earnings now and less on the actions or potential actions of the Fed? ie. if we want to buy these names would it be smart to sit on the sidelines now and let this play out for a while? Thanks.
