Q: To get a well diversified portfolio of value oriented stocks, with a large component of cash, can I do better than simply buying BRK?

Q: AXON stock has taken a breather after reaching a high of $690, recently.

There have been some analysts' upgrades ( Price target as high as $800 ) and renewed enthusiasm in this Co., in light of the reports that the new incoming US administration will be focused on more spending on protecting US borders and law enforcement.

AXON stock's addition to Nasdaq 100 Index ( Dec 23 ) was also confirmed, this morning.

Many companies involved in production of military grade drones have also seen their stocks flirting with new highs, after reported sighting of drones in some parts of US and its defense bases.

All of above bodes well, I believe, for AXON Enterprises, being a pioneer in some of the most modern technologies and innovation to support the growing security needs of the Governments. Do you suspect that there could be a meaningful impact of possible US tariffs and competition from its larger US competitors?

How do you see the company's growth trajectory and its capability to justify its high valuation (per your recent comments)? The volatility of this stock was in full display, in Monday's trading when, after reports of Nasdaq 100 inclusion, some investors took profit and stock traded as low as $603, after opening much higher.

We recently initiated a position and after some addition, today have a 1.5%, weight ( ACB $635 ). Would you be comfortable adding on dips like today for long term, as a core holding ?

Thank You

Q: Hi,

I have speculative positions in SOUN and SMCI. Both of them are raising capital and SMCI has been dropped from Nasdaq100 as well. I would like your opinion on this capital raise and the companies in general; independent of my view.

I think SOUN stock price is being pumped and it would be prudent to exit the position and wait for share dilution to happen before entering again.

As far as SMCI is concerned, I think that the company is trying to come clean and start afresh. Even then I am a little suspicious. I also think that the exit from Nasdaq100 had been priced in and should not contribute further to the slide. And that they are raising capital is indicative of a strong order book. It is a matter of establishing credibility and feel it would be rewarding to give them a chance..

How would you deal with these two? Buy or Sell? Since these are speculative positions it is not just a Hold into the year end rally (hopeful).

Regards

Rajiv

Q: What insights do you have for the Utility sector in 2025? It was out of favor, caught a bid for a while and now it's falling back again. The yield is obviously nice but do you see the price continuing to decline? Thanks as always, great service.

Q: Good morning,

Q1. With this year's high performance of US Large Cap ETFs such as VFV, would switching a portion of VFV into a best in class US Mid Cap ETF make sense at this point in time?

Q2. if so, I'm considering ZMID and XMC as potential candidates. Which of these two US Mid Cap ETFs would you recommend switching into and is there another US Mid Cap that you would consider preferable as the best in class?

Thank you and I'll await your sage advice.

Q: Why do you think LHX had been weak lately? Is it related to the macro of Trump being less focused on war and the anticipation that there will be less war in the next 4 years? Or more company specific?
