Q: In the end of quarter conference call, the CEO referred to some exposure to Crypto as one of several economic factors which impact their business. He offered it had some impact but did not disclose details and none of the analysts asked for specifics. I am inclined to believe that Crypto has something to do with the new lows in the stock. Many macro uncertainties in Europe especially and exposure to a rising US$ are also important potential negatives. What do you think about the Crypto impact? I am inclined to think there is too much uncertainty to buy in - even given the stock is at an all time low. What do you think?

Q: I noticed in one of the recent comments that you are selling lightspeed to raise money for later in the year. Is that because you think that there is a good possibility of stocks dropping in the New Year? Better to wait to deploy cash or right away?

ANRG and LSPD are at all time lows. So you're selling at the lows.

Prmw is bullish and moving higher and is near its high and you're selling that as well.

What happened to run with the winners and sell the losers (not at their low)?

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
AP is a small family owned steel company in Pittsburg and usually only trades a few thousand ...10-50 daily. Today they had traded 48,000 and at the bell 1.8 million went through. I am perplexed. Can you give me any idea about this...bad news, multiple sellers, institutional seller or just one large retail order. Any opinion would be helpful...I do not own the stock but have been following its down turn and have been considering buying at a good price. Thanks as always!
