Q: Up until now, I have only part full or nearly full positions in a stock while trying to keep my total number of stocks under 30 in number. However, I am now considering taking a slightly different approach and buying a basket of some beaten-up stocks, likely from those noted above.

Since I am new to this strategy, my question is, what would you consider to be a useful percentage to devote to a stock that will allow for meaningful gains while limited individual risk? I'm thinking 1% is too little, 1.5% might be enough and certainly no more than 2%.

Your insight is appreciated.

regards,

Paul F.

Q: Peter and Team. Happy New Year to you all. In December I engaged in some tax loss selling to lower my previous taxable gains on the above noted stocks. The 30 days has passed and I now plan to repurchase some of them to hold for 2 years or so. Can you please rank which of these you consider are the best to re-purchase in my non registered account. Are there any in this list which you suggest I should forgot about. Thanks for your great advise.

Q: I hold the above six securities in a taxable account in less than half positions. On a tax neutral basis I could sell OKTA,SNOW,GH and PLUG and split the proceeds between ROKU and CRWD to bring them to larger positions. These investments are part of a relatively agressive taxable portfolio.
Two questions - firstly, if you could rank the 6 stocks in accordance with your preference. Secondly, do you think my proposal would create a meaningful stronger position for growth.
Thanks,
Terry

Read Answer Asked by Frank on April 22, 2021
Q: Please briefly describe the major differences between the services these 2 companies offer. Are they direct competitors or are they complementary i.e. diversify exposure. If wanting to add exposure to cybersecurity is one preferable? is there a better long-term growth option in this space? This would be for a long term hold. Thank you.

Q: Both of these has been hitting all time highs.
Looks like STNE passed the 20B market cap and kept going. Any thoughts on valuation?
Re Okta looking to add to round out the position. Worth waiting for it to settle down or things looks good into 2021 and beyond so good as any time to hit the buy button. Maybe the recent cyber attack is helping here.

Thanks
