Q: Hello Peter and team,
Is it a good time to initiate positions in Paypal and Square (block) for minimum 2 to 3 year hold? What are the PE ratios for both and would you consider them as value stocks at this point? Thanks very much

Q: I'm holding this one at a loss - and I see that it was downgraded today by Citi. Can I have your thoughts on the name? I liked it for the high buyback yield, and relatively low p/e ration and ev/etbta and the fact that they were into chips for electric vehicles. I like it less now that I'm holding it at a loss though. Thanks,

Jason
