Q: I own 3 of the big 7, Apple, Amazon and Nvda and manage the positions for weighting. I would like to own Microsoft and/or Google. Please suggest if you think it's necessary to expand to one or both of these, and if better to have a half position in both, or full position in one or both considering the other holdings. Thanks!

Q: Can you offer your thoughts on Roku results and its future potential? Increasingly, it looks vulnerable to larger more powerful players and its competitive position and ability to price for value to customers appear to be eroding. Any comments are welcome. It is noteworthy that after an 80% drop it is up 100% this year. It is yet dramatically lower than its peak.

Q: hi,
thank you for, and this question is in reference to, the answer to the "baby Mag 7" question a few days ago by "JR". are you able to do a short analysis of these 7, compared to the "adult" Mag 7 in regards current and future valuation, growth, debt/equity metrics. further, do you have any guess on the timeline of googl/meta etc.'s development/utilization of their own AI chips in house?
take as many points off as needed, this question seems like a bad homework assignment to me!
thanks Chris
