Q: Thanks for the quick answer, further, then to trimming. If you suggest a 20% total in the sector, would you suggest 5% in each holding, or some 6 and some 3? Thanks for the detail!

Q: Am I correct in being a bit nervous about the tech sector getting ahead of itself? I own the above stocks in tech. I have trimmed SHOP from about 12% down to 7%, and I own about 6% in the others, (all with good gains). So - still about 25% tech. I've thought of selling all tech and sitting on the sidelines for a few months, or, just making a trim to reflect a balance. How would you suggest I proceed to further? Thanks, as always.

Q: Auto Industry
Supposedly a good time to invest in the auto industry is when the economy is coming out of recession and interest rates are low: at time when people haven't been buying cars, but soon will. (Which sounds like where we are now, right ??)

But a lot of financial commentators are saying that it is "too late in the cycle" to invest in autos. Is there in fact a "cycle" or is this phrasing just another way of saying "car sales are slow right now" ?

When do you think auto sales will pick up ?

Thanks Kathy
