Q: HiYa, I have done very well on CHW since starting to buy in November, and actually going overweight. I have recently liquidated to an underweight position. I would love to buy this stock back on the guess that it goes to 15 or 16 bucks?

Q: With roll-ups like Constellation, don't things tend to end badly? They reach a certain size and can no longer acquire enough companies to expand at 10-20% yearly, it is just an exponential mathematical equation that they cannot acquire every tech company in the known world so growth has to slow down radically eventually. CSU is competing in larger spaces with more competition and fewer companies than their classical 5-40 million revenue companies that they have acquired historically. Is this not a major concern with CSU here?
