Q: YTD: CSU -20%, NVDA -52%, MSFT - 33%, AMD -57%, AAPL - 22%.

These five were a big part of my best year in '21 and they're a big part of my worst ever year ion '22. So it goes. Having stubbornly ridden them down, not wanting to have locked in a loss, do I assume correctly that you still like all these names and would advise hanging in for the rebound?

Q: What are your thoughts on IGV? Buy, sell or hold. Is it worth holding a basket of software stocks or just sticking with Microsoft which is owned? If you were to recommend selling IGV what sector would you suggest? Tempted by energy but know late to the game. However, looking at PEs of energy companies they are still relatively cheap compared to other names. Look forward to your thoughts.

Q: With the above four big tech companies above disappointing on earnings and being beaten up for it, is this the beginning of the tech earnings recession going forward? And do you think the stock market will begin to move more on earnings now and less on the actions or potential actions of the Fed? ie. if we want to buy these names would it be smart to sit on the sidelines now and let this play out for a while? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

With small and mid-cap stocks at very low valuations what would be your must owns for stocks in the US and Canada for solid growth over the next 1-5 years with the core characteristics that you look for including solid growth in revenues, strong balance sheet and etc.?

Over the course of the next 6 months would you be a buyer of small to mid cap stocks or large cap stocks? I'm a long-term investor with a medium to high growth risk tolerance.

Thanks as always,
Jon

Q: QCOM has been dropped a fair amount more in recent weeks, perhaps due to news about a US policy about chips to China. While big on chip manufacturing, does QCOM in fact have more (eg IP assets) that would make the large drop because of the US policy announcement overdone?

In any event, does QCOM have good potential for a recovery in the next short while? Otherwise, I might take a tax loss and add to, say, MSFT; any comment about that move?

thank you for your excellent service

Q: Hi 5i:
I've been away for a while and not keeping up with Questions, so this may already have been asked and answered. if so, please provide a link to the answer.
I'm hoping you could advise what sectors you think will reverse the current trend and begin to appreciate in value more quickly than others and, also, if you could identify three or so names you would expect to 'lead the charge' in each of those sectors.
If time and space permit, any commentary you might have regarding each identified sector and/or name would be appreciated. Thanks!
Peter
