Q: Most coming out of COVID stocks have had a big run, and that includes Live Nation. It is near the stock price it had in early 2020. Naturally fundamentals do not look good, but the question is what pent up demand will be for concets, etc. Do you think it still has significant upside in 2021?

Q: Income oriented portfolios:
What is the role of covered call dividend ETFs in a income oriented portfolio and what is the risk ?
If such ETF is supposed to increases income and reduces volatility, shouldn't covered call dividend ETFs become a significant part of income portfolios? even considering that you do not benefit from the entire stock price appreciation ,but that the income is more secure ?

Q: I read about AMY and like the idea of taking a flyer on a company focused on battery recycler technology considering the EV momentum. I see news came out about it on the 21-Jan but it made a significant jump the day before. Is this 'pre-emptive' jump typical?

Are there alternative companies in this space that you would recommend?
