Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: In response to the question by Satish, your suggestion was to look at tech growth stocks for a faster recovery. I had been considering TTD, NVDA, MSFT, GOOGL ,AMZN, COST and UTX before the correction; waiting for pullback. While UTX and COST have held up the others have dropped by varying degrees.
Could you please suggest your order of preference to buy in this volatile period.
As always, value your opinion.
Regards

Q: My question relates to a stock like TTD (which I have been in and out of) vs holding SIS. I do own SIS and believe it will eventually get somewhere. The dividend while waiting is nice. The ask today is whether you would advocate being out of SIS so as to deploy into something like TTD, AYX or even to start a new position in SHOP if the pull back gets more aggressive? The assumption is that it's either SIS or one of the above mentioned stocks but not both.

Q: I currently hold the following technology equities in my portfolio: AAPL, TEAM, CSU, and LSPD. I'm considering selling LSDP (up 14%) and purchasing either SHOP or DSG. I would like a bit less volatility and more consistent growth. Does this seem reasonable and which would you choose or do you have another idea?
Thank you for your advice.

Q: I purchased these when issued at $115. In a way, CSU used the high issue price to pay the first 3 years of interest payments. I purchased these as part of my bond portion, and had intended to keep this until my end.

For CSU, this interest must be expensive. Given that they released the debentures at a 15% premium, would calling it back be viewed as bad faith?
There is some capital appreciation, should I capture this and flip into a bond etf?
