Q: What one to select?...that is the question for me. GOOG is trading at 20.6 x earnings and AMT at 43.1 x earnings. Wow what a difference in this metric.....Guess I go with GOOG, right?!......(Even thought keen to add to AMT)
Then there is PLC...keen to top up, like overweight as some investors are bailing out, while future revenue growth is expected to be strong for the rest of this year and 2023. PLC is now trading at 27.4 times earnings. Time to add, right?!...........Tom

Q: It appears that the acquisition of Link is going to happen. Is this going to be a catalyst for the stock? Investors don't seem to be convinced of the benefits of the deal since the stock after a jump Thursday is somewhat flat Friday.
I'm deep under water on this one. I can be patient when a stock is broken but not so sure if the company is not broken in this instance. Now what?

Q: I have held ULTA for some time and is up nicely. It hit a new yearly high on Tuesday, I am considering selling half and adding to AAPL/AMZN/GOOG/MSFT. I feel confident that when the market turns these 4 will do well. I am not so confident about ULTA. Could I please have your thoughts? Would you sell all/half/none? If you agree, in what order would you add to the others?

Q: Hi, could I please have your view of the Canadian inflation rate over the next 5 years. Do you believe we could return to a scenario of very low inflation and zero interest rates or is inflation likely to plateau at a higher level (or much higher level) and what might that level be? Thanks.
