Q: Hi 5i, I'm struggling to keep the mentioned companies in the face of pending 25% steel and aluminum tarrifs. Would appreciate a review and some comforting analysis :)
One thing not talked about is the dollar impact on these companies which have US sales, and the potential benefit of monetary policy easing faster now that this tarrif nonsense has basically put on hold any investment in our industries.
My gut is telling me that our last year recession, masked by insane immigration, will become an official recession this year.
Q: Seen this stock drift down almost 20% in the last few weeks. I see they have earnings report in Mid March. Wondering if you have a good explanation for slide despite no obvious news. Not sure if it's tariff related. Your opinion of best of action. Eg Sell or wait for earnings report. Not a big fan of average down when rest of market is flat or going up. Thanks. Chris
Would you be comfortable buying in on POWL at its current valuation? A half position and watching for momentum to change following its decline on deepseek etc.
Q: Using your SMID rotation theme in the i2i report, please suggest a basket of stocks that fit this theme and an entry price if it's beneficial to wait for a pullback. Would you look at buying, for example, 5 or so at 2%? Thanks!
Q: On Gear: I understand that 82% voted for the Gear Energy sale, and the new company Lotus. Does Gear have a timeline, for settlement with the shareholder. As an example, if one has 1000 shares, how would the settlement happen, how much cash would one receive, and how many Lotus shares ? When will Gear be delisted ? Given the poor deal that was struck by Gear, I have trouble believing 82% voted for the deal, but that is another topic, for another venue?
Q: At an average price of 111$ today down 14%.I agree with your take on not to sell in the Trump threat but? Already overweight so can not add.Are you confident a hold is best or ? Much appreciate your insight.Thanks Larry
Q: Do you think the insiders have a solid track record and have enough "skin in the game"? Do you think they have enough capital for the next couple of years to execute their plans or would you be expecting routine dilutive offerings over the next five years? Your thoughts on the pros and cons of this company please.
