Q: Hi Team
I have heard the term, window dressing, where the fund will sell their "dogs" and buy stocks that have gone up at year end so it looks like they have done well. My question is, if the sell at a loss, does that not show up in the year end results showing that they had a bad year?

Thanks

Q: I don't know what to think about this co. Not a lot of shares, real liquidity issue, no insider ownership, no dividend, posted another loss re earnings. Yet full year rev will be quite a large increase and profit expected. Tangible book value is 2x current share price. Why would someone buy, or thesis for buying?

Thanks for your insight.

Q: I hold the 3 following positions : SHOP (3%), LSPD (1.5%) with a 30%loss and NVEI (1%) with a 65% loss.
I want to clean a bit my portfolio, and clear at least one of NVEI or LSPD.
In which one would you prefer to consolidate? Would you even consider consolidate all in Shop or there’s a good case for keeping NVEI or LSPD?

Thank you!

Q: I’m selling Appian (APPN) and Fulgent Genetics (FLGT) for a tax loss and am wondering what suitable proxies would be. Or would you recommend just selling, and buying something more promising? (I’m not limited by sector here.) I have more confidence in Appian than in Fulgent. Is that appropriate in your opinion?
