Q: People who are very close to the market having connections that I don't have. Here are examples: PINS - in May it was $50 and up until recently it was up as high as $82, then it started selling off and eventually quickly plummeted below $60. AMAZON - this was not doing much most of the year by July it was at $3760, a short time latter it was $3300. PINS started selling off fairly rapidly once it hit the low $80's. I think some people knew that the writing was on the wall for this stock. In the case of Amazon, since it wasn't doing much anyway - it sold off rapidly over a short period of time down to $3300 - again I have the same feeling as I have with PINS. PAY PAL had a massive sell-off and ROKU in July at one time in July was $490 plus and now it is down over $100 and seems to continue to fall I wish I had got out when it reached the $500 value. Would you say these lucky people who got out at the high price are well sophisticated traders or have a lot of connections? Your opinion. Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i what are your thoughts on PINS, SPOT, ATVI and RBLX recent declines, I think all are overreactions for varying reasons (ATVI/RBLX getting dragged down with China crackdown on gaming, PINS USA MAU declined but everything else looks good, SPOT ... not sure what really changed here but it took a huge dive..) I like to buy a stock I know and follow anytime there is an overreaction like this. I know ATVI has culture issues with female harrasment and that has dragged them down as well but I don't really see how any of these stocks trajectory/themes have really changed all that much. How do you view these 4 stocks?

Q: There has been talk recently about averaging down. Awhile back 5i seemed to like AT and EGLX, and my price on it was in the $12.00 range. Since they were favourable about people having this, I averaged down at the time it was $7 and change, it is now down over the past 5 days 16.9%. What I have read lately with 5i, it seems now I should not have averaged down. I am happy I didn't with AT down 9.4% in the past 5 days. Once a stock goes sour - rule of thumb it usually stays sour? On another note, PINS was having a nice recovery, but over the last 5 days it is down 10.2% - I averaged down on that one 4 or 5 months ago. In the future, I don't think I will be averaging down.
Your thoughts are always appreciated.
