Q: I've held VEEV for a while and it seems to be stalled. Time to move on? If yes, would you recommend shifting the funds to bring ATZ up to 4%? Alternatively, is there another company in the health sector you would recommend in VEEV's stead? Medium-risk investor.

Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i,

I am not thrilled with QCOM YTD -10%. NVIDIA +70% GOOGLE +64%

Do you think more patience is required or NVIDIA would be just a much better company at this point going forward? I am looking for growth and don't care (great deal) about the dividend (although it is nice to have). I know the valuation risk is different but it was the same risks in January yet the results speak for themselves.

Q: I still think there is big potential for this stock, yet it still is not doing well. Despite their "Planned Innovations to Ignite the Next Era of Communications" which looks forward thinking to me, the market just doesn't seem interested.
Do you think it is still about, "Shares rotating from pandemic holders to longer term positions"? In your experience can you see this falling below $270-$250?

Thanks as always

Q: Hi team,
Just looking for any new thoughts on Med? Any idea why it’s been weak lately? I don’t understand why this one is being sold off so aggressively after beating estimates last quarter, and you would think the “healthy living “ aspect of the company would be a strong trend right now ? I am -21% on it after today . Is it time to sell or hold? If sell , is there anything in particular you would deem a much better buy right now with the funds ? I hold this in a US cash account so if I was replacing it with something I would prefer it to be US listed . I am typically a long term holder , unless the story changes or there’s a much better opportunity that comes along .
Thanks

Shane

Q: I was just checking out the new iPhone 13 and saw that they use Affirm for buy now, pay later. I do own GSY, is there an advantage to also owning affirm? What do you think about buying it after the latest run-up? If buying, is it overinflated and is it better to wait for it to settle down? Thanks!
