Q: Hi 5iTeam,

I realize that it was up a lot earlier this year - unfortunately I bought it after that ride was over. Do you have any thoughts as to why it hasn't been performing since June even on good days in the market? It also seems to be a low vol stock without much interest. I am waiting to see what happens on their earnings but I fear that the results may lead to a further dump. Thank you for your time and comments as always.

Q: Hi 5i,
What are your thoughts on the rumoured, from several sources, PYPL bid for PINS at around $70 a share? It seems like a lowball bid. Not much of a premium and not even close to taking out the yearly high of PINS. On what metric would you evaluate this bid and how does it compare to peer group acquisitions in the past couple of years? How do you see this playing out in the market? Other potential bidders?
Thanks again.
Dave

Q: Hi Peter,

I have been waiting on the sidelines to buy into the October volatility as we go into the end of the year seasonal strength. What would your sector preference and ranking be between industrials /materials/technology?
In the meantime tech has almost recouped its losses.
I have been dithering between AMD and MRVL and both have gone up nicely. Would you suggest I buy now (and which); or wait for a pullback end of month? I do have NVDA and QCOM, am a growth investor and any suggestions if I should keep QCOM or migrate to one or both of the two mentioned above ?
Thank you in advance for your opinion.
Regards
Rajiv

Q: I have this for a number of years, and think to drop it, as its market performance has been poor. What is your opinion on it. Looking to replace it in a tfsa with any of your recommendations for growth, sector does not matter in view of overall portfolio.
thank you for your excellent services.

Q: I notice CELH has been up and down between $87 and $97 over the past month. Anything causing this? The Entertainer from CNBC was very high on Netflix and Tesla. Netflix's stock dropped on a good earnings report I think because people had bid it up prior to the earnings report. Your opinion is needed before making a final decision on either one. Thank you.

Q: What do you think about this: https://cloudflare.net/news/news-details/2021/Cloudflare-Announces-R2-Storage-Rapid-and-Reliable-S3-Compatible-Object-Storage-Designed-for-the-Edge/default.aspx

Seems like they will be able to compete with Amazon with this product. Is that why the share price has gone vertical since that was released?

Q: Good morning!!!

Love the Q&A. Thanks for all the hardwork behind the scenes. This service provided has been a boon to all.

Could you please give me a break down of this company's numbers. Is it intriguing enough to begin a position? Worth watching etc. Of course the family connection as well as set up comes to mind here.

Thank you.

Q: On Sept 21st I asked a question about Circle. In your response you mentioned.
- Buying the SPAC shares is the same as buying Circle, but note the acquisition has not closed yet.
- Like all SPAC deals we tend to be extra cautious.
Re the above points,
Can you elaborate on the potential concerns specifically with investing in Concord at the moment in lieu of investing in the new company after going public. (For e.g. Can we lose all our money, some of our money.. if the deal does not go thru…? Any other concerns?)

If you have any additional comments re Circle since Sep 21st, a few words would be appreciated. My understanding is that they now have $33B in circulation but do not know much more (and there may not be much more).

Thanks again. Your turn around time is amazing and the quality/detail of your responses is impressive. Keep up the great work. Have a nice day!
