Q: Watching these two companies putting in new 52 week lows today. I know that the financial sector is out of favour but when I consider the growth rate of these two names I am wanting to purchase them. AFRM just stated it will exceed 3rd quarter and y/e outlooks. Could you give update and thoughts on these. Relative to growth are they expensive?

Q: I have been looking at recommendations in the questions and have picked the companies listed above to look into.
Without considering sector diversification, would you say each of these individually are strong companies to invest in, or would you separate these into different tiers?
In what order would you take a position in these stocks if you were to invest today? (e.g. may want to wait until prices for growth stocks like TIXT/TSU stabilize)
Also please provide suggested entry prices for each.

Q: Hi 5i
We don't have any Canadian tech companies but lots of AAPL, GOOGL and NVDA. With current pullback, SHOP and XIT are down a lot (70% and 40% off highs) but CSU only about 15%. Would you buy CSU or XIT?
Thanks,
Greg

Q: At the current price of $187.67 FB, according to the company data section, is trading at 3.7 sales and analysts estimates show earnings $14.43 in 2023 for a forward PE of 13. Earnings growth is estimated to be 18.3% ($12.20 to $14.43). The analyst estimate stock target price $225 -450.
Question 1) Do you think the numbers in the company data are reasonable at this point?
Question 2) What would be the arguments against opening a position at this price if the hold was for 3-4 years

Thanks
Mike

Q: I have been watching UPST for quite a while, and I do own some (not a lot...yet). I notice that there has been consistent insider selling for quite a while, and can't help but wonder if this persistent selling (over months) is what is causing the stock to plummet. Does it suggest that there is a problem with the stock/company? I do understand there are many reasons for insiders to lighten up, even if the stock is solid, but the amount and persistence of the selling here does worry me. I'd like to get your impression of all the insider selling.

Q: Hi 5i
In answer to my question earlier today about where to best find earning report dates and estimates, you provided a link to a US site. Is there a decent Canadian site that does the same or nearly so? Just wondering where I can go to get a concise calendar of upcoming Qtly reports along with street consensus estimates, without having to search company by company. If such info is only available through payment of a fee to the provider, that's OK (depending on how much ...).
Thanks, for any further info about this you're able to provide.
Peter
