Q: I have two questions on HOOD: first, on the 5i stock profile, HOOD has a PE of 87, while on Yahoo Finance it is listed as 32, which is right?
Second, after the decline from recent highs, is this a buying opportunity or would you wait until it levels out/consolidates?

Q: Do you have data on their current sector allocations? I have tried text searching and reviewing the Q&As for the past many months but cannot find anything. I also have positions in BEP, BIP and BIPC but I believe they are more narrowly focused on their sectors from what I read.

Q: Propel stock had, lately been doing well, hitting a high of $42, late January, after an analyst upgrade. Today, a month later, it has done full circle, back to $34.50, where, it was trading since October, 2024.

Is this just profit taking or a shadow of the big brother GSY ( just reported ), in your view, or something has changed ( Trump jitters ) ?

Do you still continue to expect excellent growth ( UK acquisition etc ) and would be comfortable adding after this pullback ?

Thank You
