Q: The Rule of 40 is a SaaS financial ratio which states that a healthy SaaS company has a combined growth rate and profit margin of 40% or more.

Do you prescribe to this rule? Why is this specific to SaaS companies and not other industries?

Is this tied to the price of gold? Would you expect the price of gold to increase as the interest rates decrease?

Q: I have held this stock for low volatility, a little growth and a steady income. However its performance in the last 12 months has been dreadful. Is is just poorly managed or is there some other fundamental problem with the company?
Do you think there is much of a possibility it could be bought out by its major shareholder?
