Q: Has 5i screened for US-listed shares that are likely to be candidates for tax-loss selling now to end of year 2024? Has 5i done a blog or magazine article or other post identifying US-companies that you would consider attractive to buy? I assume that such a screen would exclude US companies that are being sold off for reasons other than tax-loss harvesting. Thank you. :ao:sab

Q: Dear Peter et al:

I know you don't like to predict and set price targets. But with VRT/NVDA on a tear, surely one has to have a floor and a ceiling price target? I know they are your high conviction long term favorites.

I ask this question with a specific trade strategy on mind. Take a position with say 200 shares. Write a call, just one contract each. Even if one gets called away, I will have the other 100 shares to capture the price appreciation.

Any words of wisdom on this strategy? Price targets?

Thank you for your answer.

Q: Hi team ,
Clbt has really jumped from the $17 up to the $20 level just in the last couple days . Do you feel if a person wanted to buy some shares we should now wait for a pullback day ? Or do you feel it might just keep going higher? Was there any news that would explain the big jump in the last few days?

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: Alphabet is down on the news that they might be forced to sell chrome. IF this were to happen is it necessarily bad?

Companies like CSU and BAM have benefited by spinning off divisions. Could Alphabet also benefit by selling Chrome?

Or if the sale doesn’t take place would the stock likely start moving back up again….. hence making this a good time to add to it given a decent risk / reward scenario?

Thanks

Q: Alphabet is one of my larger holdings, but I am getting somewhat frustrated with it. I'm assuming it's down 4% today because the DOJ wants it to sell Chrome. The incoming Republicans have never really liked Alphabet either. Although it's considered cheaper than the rest of the Mag7, is this a value trap?
