Q: Hi,
Do you agree with Mr. Ross Healy that NFLX is the only FAANG stock worth dipping into? Would you be a "trader" of this stock? Do you see the potential for a bounce?
Feel free to share your "musings"!

Q: Hi,
Please take as many credits as you feel fit. Our portfolio is a hot mess. We’ve basically been ignoring this downturn for the past 6 months knowing we are are in for the long term. Retirement is 7-10 years out. The above holdings have fallen below a 1% weight in our portfolio. We have limited cash to deploy. Which of these would you add to? In what order? Any you would not add to and just hope that time allows for recovery? Any if these you would sell? For the ones that could be added too. Would you just buy now or put some stink bids in given the crazy volatility in markets? Any additional input is welcome.
Thanks so much,
Kerri

Q: Are there any compelling reasons NOT to buy META at these prices (under ~$160 USD) for a long term investor? Very profitable, ~11x PE, ~7x cash flow. It is the same price as 5 years ago but the company has doubled revenues and profits since then. They are spending a lot on metaverse development and AI but Zuckerberg has always sailed the ship in the right direction. Huge user numbers and WhatsApp is barely monetized. It feels like all the bad news is baked into the price today (revenue decline of 1%, Sandberg leaving, metaverse capex). They are also buying back about 1% of the company per quarter at this valuation.

Q: Some time ago i asked a question regarding the merits of holding a handful of us stocks along with my US etf’s, in order to get a little extra boost. You were ok with the strategy but cautioned against the kind of stocks I held i.e. Google, nvidia, msft, Costco, abbivie. While they were good stocks you said that the problem is that they are well represented in the various etf’s and that if i wanted a “kicker” to provide boost that I should go smaller in size. I wonder if you could provide a handful of stocks that would fit that criterion and would be ones that one would want to own long term. If they were also good candidates for selling options on that would be an added bonus. Thanks for your expertise and advice.

Q: Hello Peter,

In light of the quarterly performance of Meta and Roku, what is your short to medium term outlook for the 3 companies mentioned above? Will they still be candidates for overperforming in a recovery bounce when the market is done with the downward trend.?

Q: Hi Team,
Social media stocks crashed today based on SNAP's earnings. Meta (-7.5%) GOOG (-5.8%). To me...the logic of crashing shares of companies like Meta and GOOG as they are being compared to SNAP is just insane. Did this similar instance not just happen last earnings season? Only to have GOOG crush earnings? I guess my question is...do you agree that SNAP is no where close to being in the same league when it comes to its current business model? And if so...this should be a great buying opp for companies such as GOOG and META? It's days like today that make a person really question the integrity of whatever goes on on the floors of Wall Street. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks

Shane.
