Q: Hello Peter et al,

From your answers your faith and belief in GOOG seems unshakeable! Would say it is worth nibbling at this price? Or is it worth buying cash covered puts and be ready if assigned? In other words, wade in gradually (DCA as per your recent editorial in CMS!) or use options strategy? If you do hazard a guess, what would be the floor for GOOG? 90$? Your crystal ball is as good as anyone's on CNBC!!

Mano.

P.S. BTW miss you at BNN! You folks may want to consider regular webinars for the subscribers with a Q&A function.

Q: Good Afternoon

I currently hold TEAM(even), VEEVE(-10%) TRADEDESK(-10%),CROWDSTRIKE (-35%) and UNITY(-75%). Each of these positions make up less than 2% of my portfolio. Unfortunately there are no tax losses applicable. If you were to consolidate which ones would you keep or in turn what would you buy as a replacement

Thank you

Q: Hi 5i, May I pls have your thoughts on latest results and if you would continue to hold or upgrade.

I have few other dogs, maybe LGO also, that I'm looking to consolidate into either GOOG, META, DIS, PYPL or AMZN. Which 2 or 3 would be your preferred choices? PYPL worries me a bit, seems other fintec companies might be eating their lunch. DIS is interesting given old CEO is back and cost cutting the company. Pls give your pros/cons when ranking. Thx for your great advice!

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I’m down on all the above stocks as follows CRWD Down 36%, ETSY down 40%, PINS down 52%, PYPL down 64%, SQ down 72% and U down 77%.

With a 2 to 3 year horizon which of these are worth holding and which once I should sell and can you suggest US replacements and not necessarily in the same asset class. Just good stable companies that have good growth potential to outperform the indexes.

Take as many credits as you feel necessary.

Thanks
Joe

I manage a very small RRSP for my daughter and was hoping that you could give me 2 Canadian and 2 US stocks that I could add to her portfolio.
I would appreciate an entry point for them and also your reasons for the selection.

Thanks,

Q: Hi Folks,
I have a question concerning what affect a recession would have on Tech stocks such as Apple, Microsoft, Google and even Constellation Software?
I am nibbling away at buying these now but I am wondering whether I should wait to finish buying my full position on each until the recession is over.
Thanks
