Q: Hello 5i,

Thank you for the great work and your valued perspective through this volatility. How would you rank stocks within the Forestry sector today for an investor with a 3-5+ year hold?

The sector is looking interesting to me based on the present weakness in U.S. housing. WEF is up significantly today and your perspective on long-term opportunities in the sector is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Q: I have a question about Nvidia. Tough to see it down on an up day (Nov 21) for the nasdaq. Not that I know much about Zacks but I see they have a "strong sell" on it today (not clear to me if their opinion is new today though). Are you still strong on Nvidia or would you suggest a U.S. replacement? Thanks.

Q: Hi folks, thanks very much for the Screener-Tax loss selling list of companies. I didn't see Photon Control on it. The stock certainly had more than 15% loss in 2018, by not on the list, does that mean Photon has minimal % projected revenue growth in 2019. I like the company and would you suggest a good entry point at $1 level. Thanks as always, jb
