Q: May i have your thoughts on this one? It released earnings last night which looked great but the stock is down 20% or so today and I'm now holding at a loss. I read the conference call transcript and I can't figure out why the market sent this one lower after what looked like a nice quarter with significant year over year earnings growth. I don't know what I may be missing. The same thing happened to me on Peri and Meli, which I thought had good earnings but fell the day after, only to recover a bit in the following days.

Thank you,

Jason

Q: I have US exposure through a company pension that tracks the S&P. It represents about 20% of my overall holdings. I have recently come into enough US cash to add two or three new individual holdings, or perhaps buy an ETF or two that would complement the S&P tracking pension. I would welcome your thoughts and suggestions for individual stocks or ETFs that would be suitable additions.
