Q: Well after 50 years in the market, what have i learnt.
Never fall in LOVE with a stock, protect your capital, sell a portion of a stock when you have made your cost back. Thinking that you are up say 50% in a stock, you have not made a PENNY until you SELL. Investors have a thing in there head that is called GREED, i can make more on this stock. I can name all kind of stocks in say 5i that clients would be very happy if they would of taken some profits a couple of months ago. It takes a long time to make up a 50% loss.
Thanks Again

It assumes it could be related to the Thursday upgrade of Google Gemini 3 Deep Think .
But this upgrade could be viewed as positive rather than negative.

Q: Hello,
To which would you add/start a position in to today? Long term hold. I already own STN and WCN (would be averaging up).
Also, if you could explain the drop in Stantec that would be great.
Thanks!

Q: Reflecting on the Software apocalypse... Given that most trading has been automated for years, I assume that it is now largely AI driven.
A question asked only partly tongue in cheek, is it possible that trading AI's see the software companies as adversaries and the stock market as one avenue of attack?

Q: I read in the Q&A that portfolio analytics does not give a sector breakdown for HXS.

Q: Hello Team 5i & Everyone,
If anyone is interested in a "roadmap" for how new technologies (ie, railroad, electively, telephone, internet, AI, etc) have historically been adopted into society - I'm currently reading this book on the subject: "Technological Revolutions and Financial Capital: The Dynamics of Bubbles and Golden Ages" by Carlota Perez.
It's become a popular reference point for the implementation of AI.
Thanks,
Sandra
