Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: What you interpret or put value on 1 year target price on yahoo finance. example -
VRT at 63 and 1 year target price is 53
DDOG at 135 and target is 129
AXON at 270 and target 258.
Does this mean these have reached at prices as expected by analyst and as such not much upside (until analyst revise prices)? Don't have position in these. Is it too late to start. Thanks

Q: I'm a fairly unsophisticated investor so your advice has been well worth the price.

I am trying to understand the metrics to better value a company.

The price of some companies like Costco and CSU has soared, but you have mentioned such rises not being a bubble if other metrics like P/E ratio are in line with that. Is that the case for these two companies or are they now over-priced?

Also, you seem to be recommending VRT but the P/E ration on that is around 90. That seems very high.

Q: I hold a U.S.$ portfolio of 9 stocks geared to growth - all of which are doing well, in large measure to 5i questions/answers/ comments/suggestions.

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Q: NVDA now compromises 9% of my total portfolio. What's the maximum weight YOU would be comfortable with? Alternatively, would you consider selling - say - 2% of NVDA and buying VRT? If yes, can you please compare potential risk/reward for both NVDA and VRT over the next two years on a scale of 1-10? Thank you.

Q: Hi,
Kicking myself in the butt for not buying SMCI a few months back after humming and hawing about it. I guess because I have a large NVDA and GOOG position already so didn’t want too much AI exposure.

For some of these names that have run hard over the last 3-6 months, would you add or initiate new positions? I own NVDA, HPS.A and TVK and have nice gains but want to slightly add for long term. I’m reluctant now to buy these new daily highs in SMCI and VRT, afraid of a sharp pullback. How would you proceed? For all the stocks mentioned, what inning do you think we’re in for each? Still long runways? And I know it’s hard, but what would be good price targets to buy if they pulled back? Thanks!

Q: If you had to put together a portfolio to hold for at least one year for max gain what would they be? No concern for risk or the size of the company. Must be traded on a USA exchange although not necessarily a USA company. I’m guessing you will include smci, vrt, google and amazon. Part two of the question is whether I should sell some smci to lock in a gain? I’ve never in my life enjoyed such a large gain so quick. Thanks.

Q: Hi, I'm still down about 57% in Nuvei and haven't realized much of any January bounce in CTS. I'm considering a consolidation of these two into my existing VRT stake .
