Q: Hi team,

As you know from my questions, I like tech and am a growth investor. I do own some lower beta non-tech stocks as a counter-balance; I just don’t ask a lot of questions on them. The cloud is working these days, with a few normal hiccups. I follow a ton of stocks in the space, so I will ask about five (down from ten) that were bid very high going into earnings, that is, TEAM, TTD, SPLK, AYX, WDAY. Earnings and guidance, as far as I can recall were great, yet the stocks sold off. I attribute it to normal profit taking after big run-ups. I own TTD and TEAM. I owned WDAY in the past, but sold it prematurely. I am a bit shocked and impressed today how AYX shot up about 5% when the market had an awful day. I could see no news on that on the websites I check. Any reason for that? How would you rank these five for growth prospects over the next several years and are there any red flags or undue risks for any so that you would avoid that company?

Thanks again,
Dave

Q: Unfortunately, I doubled down on SIS, COV, TSGI and KXS. KXS is the only one where I am basically even. The others have magnified my losses. I run out of patience and sold TSGI a month ago. I like the US stocks that you like and am doing well with them. TTD over the last 2 days has gone between a low of $145 to a high of $165. Do you of any reason why? Thanks, Dennis

Q: Hi 5i team,
All these four stocks have come down in value to different degrees. Based on projected earning growth, balance sheets, and value, which two of the four above should have the strongest rebound next year? Which two will be your preference for a 2 year hold? Would now be a good time to pick up these stocks? Thanks.

Q: Happy Halloween to all.
I know you dont cover US stocks but do you see any good stocks to buy now for 2 to 3 years growth? Ones that have been beaten up too much. I'm thinking NAVIDA GRUB GOOG but suggestions welcome please. Thank you
Ps should we wait until end of November?

Q: Hi team,
I notice you listed TTD as one of your top current U.S. buys in a recent Q&A and I saw it again in Peter’s column in the Financial Post. It seems like you have turned very positive on it. I have been in it for about 6 months but trimmed back before the last earnings which turned out to be a blowout quarter. You just never know with tech earnings. It is now around $125. I am thinking of topping up again.

In the past, you seemed concerned that one of the big U.S. tech guys could easily get into the digital programmatic advertising space where TTD operates. How come no on has and TDD continues to just sail along? Aren’t GOOG, FB, and others concerned about the inroads made by TTD? Could it be a buyout target of one of the big guys?

Thanks again,
dave
