Q: I've read the Q & A's on veev and see that it's a name you like longer term. What about the short term? How do you like it at the current price given that it's experienced a nice run in the last month or so. Does it have legs to keep going higher shorter term in your view? I bought some today and it immediately dropped and of course I'm wondering whether I was the last one to join the party. I realize you don't have a crystal ball. Thank you as always.

Q: So if one agrees that a significant US tech exposure in a portfolio seems correct but the Big 5 US mega-techs and their valuations seem scary at the moment, given the recent correction of a stock like Intel, would you recommend that this investor with a 2 to 3 year horizon buy Intel at this level, watch it for a while and see how it settles in, start a partial position, consider other tech companies (such as what?) or continue to build positioning in the Big 5 and not focus on their valuations??? And perhaps a comment from you regarding what you would advise this concerned investor from a safety perspective regarding some of your favourite tech growers that have even higher valuations (Docusign, TTD, Team, etc.) - what is your recomendation and opinion in the context of this question comparing adding to those growthy tech names versus an Intel or a Cisco type tech purchase. I guess in essence I want to know whether you think the extra risk at this time is warranted over that term. Thank you for your anticipated helpful response - Ken

Q: Hello 5i,
In a recent answer you rated VEEV higher than AYX. I have a half position in VEEV and a full position in AYX. Based on your rating should I trim AYX and add to VEEV or is there not enough difference between their respective performances to warrant such a move?
Thank you so much for all you do!!
