Q: I want to like SHOP but get put-off by the (forward) P/E. MELI scores better on P/E and RoE and appears to have momentum. Then there's SE, which shares MELI's P/E but shows better RoE growth; OTOH, it's somewhat more opaque.

I can see how SHOP might stand out on the basis of its global reach (i.e., which offsets possible weakness in North America), but have to wonder if, in the new world order, SouthEast Asia is the territory for e-commerce growth; ideas?

Q: Hello Peter,

I am undecided over how to handle my Constellation software holding. I have done well with it and it is 15% of my portfolio. I am vacillating between trimming some and letting it ride until there is a threat from a black swan event. You must have encountered such situations before and your opinion and reasoning may help me take a decision.
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Hi 5i.

I am hoping you can answer this question, which has been puzzling me for awhile. Every day, when I look at the list of the top-traded stocks on the NASDAQ in the Financial Post, MSFT is never there. I can't understand why this would be. Is it because a huge percentage of the stock is held by institutions that simply do not trade it?

Q: My mag7 holdings have only really consisted of GOOG and NVDA, is this good enough? Seeing MSFT and META with strong earnings, should I diversity more into the other holdings? If you were to rank the mag7, what would they look like? Was considering a stake in AMZN and I know they report tonight. Thank you!

Q: Zebra Technologies just reported earnings and, while it beat expectations and has a solid backlog and pipeline, the outlook is looking rather dismal due to so much macroeconomic uncertainty. I was also wondering, with so many customers buying during the pandemic, how long until you think they will need to upgrade? I know the company is expanding into adjacent markets and internationally but wonder if most businesses now have the technology in place. Would you move on? Or hold? Thank you.

Q: I understand that DSG and KXS operate in different spaces, but had thought that, as the market put April 9 behind it, they would recover along similar trajectories - but KXS has clearly taken the lead, today matching its December, 2024 high. Supposing that at least some of Trump's tariff plans come to fruition, is KXS the better investment? DGS's RoC (per your database) is far more attractive.

Q: Can I have your thoughts on Cisco and Nvidia partnership? Do you think that Cisco is a buy at this level for growth and dividend?

Q: Can you give your thoughts on INMD's earnings today? The market isn't liking the continued rev and profit deceleration, and again lowered guidance. They blame economic forces but this pre dates Trump and the recent pullback, so one has to believe their previous products keep losing brand power. They have a lot of cash, and they bought back a lot of shares but its seeming like a bit of a value trap since the buybacks aren't making up for the business decel. They released a newer product in the last year but at this point we have no clue if its going to do well. Is this still a hold for you? Thx
