Q: Hi team,
What potential , if any do you see in Rblx currently? The shares have been making a slow recovery lately. Wondering if there’s a big future yet for this name, if they have areas to monetize in such as advertising on the platform? Or partnering with someone like meta for a VR metaverse future? Would you rank buy, hold , or sell today ?

Thanks
Shane

Q: Hi team,
What do you think of the short attack on roblox today? Stock seems to be recovering from initial loses earlier today. I had been holding Roblox with hopes the name would recover with its advertising potential and growth prospects in future omniverse development and being a leader in VR games. Should I continue to hold this smaller position or is it time to run away. On a side note I always thought they would make a good aquisition target for meta for the headset usage and advertising expertise within the rblx platform. However regulators don’t seem to let Meta aquire any company these days . Thoughts ?

Q: I would like to do some tax loss selling and was wondering if you might be able to rank RBLX, SQ, TOY, GH, OVV, and COW in order from those with the least potential to recover over the next year, to the most potential. I appreciated your help last year on the same topic. If I were to sell them all, are there any you would consider buying back after 30 days? Thanks.

Q: Hi Team,
I am sitting on a small position of roblox in a US cash account with a 56% loss. Would you recommend holding this name with expectation of an eventual comeback ? Or is it time to cash out and accept the capital loss? If so what name would be your favourite to buy today with the funds either US or Cnd regardless of sector for a 10yr hold?

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: Hello,

I have small positions in these 6 stocks, all in the red - MTCH, ROKU, GNRC are in registered accounts, RBLX, UPST, ZM in non-registered. I don't find it easy to sell any stocks but in the spirit of 'pulling weeds', can I get your opinion on which of these, if any, you would sell. Any that might be worth adding to at their current valuation?

Thank you for your insights, Doris

Q: Hi Team,
I hold the following 3 aggressive names in a US cash account (sq, rblx, apps). As a group they are down 65% , in close to equal weighting’s . What do I do with this mess? Hold at this point waiting for recovery ? Consolidate into a different safer name? Any chance for these 3 with a 3-5yr time frame ? Or is it time to take the loss and high grade to something such as a goog ? Or Maybey crox in a different sector ? Or …hope for a aggressive pop at some point , then high grade later ? Your opinion is appreciated .

Q: Hi Team,
This is more of a general question/ observation of todays price action. On a very negative day yet again, across all major index's where it seemed almost everything is down, some of my worst performers which I thought would be down even more yet were actually positive on the day. In specific (RBLX,SHOP,SQ,TOI (almost NVDA...was positive for a while). Anyways, should we read much into this? Is this a sign that some of these beat down names may actually be flirting with bottom? Or is is just wild trading and a one off perhaps? Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

Shane.

Q: Currently, the largest paper losses in my non-registered account are in ROKU, TTD and U. I am considering selling one or all of them for capital losses but do not want to miss out on any pending gains in the short term. How would you rank these for selling with a low chance of price turn around over the buy-back restriction period? Please suggest a few names for surrogates.

Also, which US stock(s) do you see as a stronger growth name for permanently replacing one or all three of the above? Sector allocation is not relevant in this case, and I do not currently own any FANG stocks.

Thanks.

Q: Hi,
I’m thinking of doing some tax loss selling. Can you suggest proxies for the following companies: Roku, Trade Desk, Twilio, Unity Software and Zoom Video.

Would you also be able to suggest an ETF that would serve as a proxie for all of them? I’m thinking of a high-growth-stock ETF like the SPYG.

Thanks
