Q: Good morning you fabulous people.

The bloodbath is far too late haha.

I'm looking for the top cyber security company at this time based on future growth and current value.

Is the premium for PANW worth it? Or is FTNT the steal here?

If you have another you'd place above these that's a little ahead of itself (PLTR) please give me your pick.

This is a TFSA holding for me. That is US based growth and longterm.

Thank you!

Q: Hello 5i,

We are in sync with the theory that hardware stocks will slow down and software will be the next phase. Which stocks from this group would you purchase today if not owned. We will assume that those not mentioned may be purchased on a pull-back. Of the list, are there any stocks that you would swap out for another stock?

WMT, NVDA, VRT, FTNT, GDDY, EVLV, SPT, UEC, FFIV, PYPL, SYM, BMY, LLY, APPF, ARM, MNDY, ORCL

Thank you for your help.

Q: Hi,

I know these are some of your favorite cyber security stocks. All of them have drifted down recently. Your uncanny call for FTNT's price of 59 has been reached AND breached!

What would be your new entry points fr these? Please feel free to add any other name if you feel it is warranted.

Q: Dear Peter et al:

PLTR earnings report is May 6th, FTNT on May 02 and SMCI tomorrow!! (30th April)


This is a general question and not personal!

If some had a small position and plan to add more to these three stocks, Worth writing Cash secured puts? So close to Earnings date?

IF you were to write a cash secured put what would be the price that you would choose to write for these three, including SMCI.
(Of course not guaranteed that the order will fill!)

Many thanks.

Q: I held equal positions in Crwd Ftnt and Panw. Last week I trimmed 1/3 of my Crwd at 363 when it bounced up for a large gain. Crwd has dropped back a bit to the 320s. I am thinking of selling my Panw at a small gain and buying back my Crwd and adding to Ftnt.
What do you think of this plan? I appreciate all your good advice.
Thanks Peter

Q: Digital Currency

With the long-rumored conversion of US currency to digital format, and presumably Canadian followup, what types of companies will most profit from these changes and what specific recommendations do you have? Are there any overall structural changes to handling a portfolio that you suggest?
Thanks for your ongoing great service.

Q: hi folks:

would you agree that panw and crwd are the 2 'best' (of the better) c-security firms?

if so, and given the market hit panw is taking, would you consider it a worthwhile upgrade (high grade) to transfer FTNT or even from hack/cybr (realizing an etf should be less volatile) to one of the above 2?


thanks in advance
