Q: Roku just dropped 20% today.
. This causes me to be at a loss of 35% ($1750).

My ROLU stake in my RRSP is now 4%

Should I sell my winning stocks and buy the ROKU dip. I was thinking to invest $3100 in Roku so that average loss would go to 17.5%..

Or should just sell Roku at this point and move.on?

Q: HI folks
Sadly, I am down on all of these somewhere between 60 to 95%!!! They mostly but not all started out as somewhat small positions 2 to 4 years ago! I have time to wait longer but: 1)are there any that are absolute failures and therefore should be sold. 2) Would you please rate the selIs from 1 to 10 ..10 being the absolute SELL. 3)How many years should I give these? (tough to answer but just a guess). I will not get much at all for any of them! Please take as many credits as you see fit.
Much Thanks and happy Family weekend

Q: Can you offer your thoughts on Roku results and its future potential? Increasingly, it looks vulnerable to larger more powerful players and its competitive position and ability to price for value to customers appear to be eroding. Any comments are welcome. It is noteworthy that after an 80% drop it is up 100% this year. It is yet dramatically lower than its peak.

Q: I have to raise some cash, and have to sell the equivalent of one of the above positions, all up various amounts from 10% to 60%, but all have about the same market value. All healed in TFSA. Considering growth only with a multi-year hold, what do you suggest - trim all three, trim two, or sell one full position, and if so which do you suggest. Thanks!

Q: ROKU had a great 2023. Towards year end, it was hit with a couple of downgrades. 5i continues to like it, in response to Q&As. Could you please list the top 2-3 reasons you have for ROKU to have another good year(s). I am not expecting it to duplicate its 2023 success, but looking to quantify whether ROKU has several more years of growth.

Q: Hello Peter,

After Fed Powell's update today, is it reasonable to push the pedal for a Santa rally into the new year? If so, what sectors in the US would you look at? Would you look at anything in Canada at all? Any stock suggestions for a 'rational exuberance' would be most welcome.
Looking forward to your perspective.

Regards

Rajiv

Q: Hi Team,
Shop is falling again today despite earnings beats and price target increases across the board. Is it a good time to buy the shares from todays profit takers? Also in general do you see this market sell off sparked by the fitch downgrade of the US credit rating a buying opp? There has been some brutal sell offs over the last 2 days. Which names would you be looking to buy in this weakness? Thanks
