Q: Hi 5i,

MELI has had a sharp decline in its share price the past two days and I can't seem to find any news that would explain it.

I know.... I cringe when I see a question about "why did this stock price drop" and usually the answer is "because the market is crazy and doesn't have to make sense short term".

I am asking this question because when I take a look at what I would consider MELI's competitors/similiar business, like AMZN and SHOP, their stock prices are moving in a positive or at least stable direction. Can't help but feel as though I am missing some key info.

I have held the stock for over 5 years and intend to hold it for at least another 2-3years. Still have confidence in the Business model going forward.

Maybe I'm just letting the market noise finally get to me.

Would appreciate your thoughts.

Thank you,

Greg C.

Q: I recently sold Nvidia in my tfsa. I sold a call option on it and it was pretty close to the strike price, I let it get called away, since I am overweight Nvidia. Now that it is down I am tempted to buy it again. I can’t let myself forget the overweight aspect, though. Do you have another suggestion that I could replace it with? I want something nearly as good that I can sell options on, thus no or a small dividend. Sector doesn’t matter. I am also full weight on Shopify and Google. I am also open to smaller stocks that could show growth and are relatively safe—celestica and Nebius?
Thanks
