Q: Growing economic inequality and an expanding class of super-rich seem to be basic global trends. Are there etfs targeted to luxury goods and if so, what are the best performers? If no etfs, can you recommend 3 companies?

Q: Looking at these long term compounders in various sectors. Based on current valuation and future growth, how would you rank these and which ones would you buy now or DCA into over time?

I'm already holding full positions in BKNG, BN, CSU, LMN, half positions in V,MA,WSP, and smaller position in TRI. I would either add to my smaller positions or add new positions in the others.

Are there any other 2-3 long term compounders that you would consider good buys currently?

Thank you!

Q: HI,
Is there a future for small EV manufacturers? Most of them are bankrupt or doing poorly (VMC, LEV, RIVN,NIO,LCID). I owned NFI in the past. Seems one of the last survivors, besides large American (TSLA, F, GM) or Chinese companies (LI, BYD). Would you invest in this sector, if somebody does not want to support chinese businesses? Which stocks would you find interesting right now, or post-Trump taking office? Could be stocks related to the sector, but less sensitive. Thanks a lot.

Q: 1. What percentage do you advise allocating to discretionary sector.
2. Included are non-US names because of pricing power/ controlled supply. If I missed any from your favs, please add to the list.
3. Recently you answered my question on industrial stocks based on
a) core [large, defensive names]
b) high growth regardless of size
c) recent strength and positive momentum.
Applying that to my list of discretionary stocks, please rank in each category (1-3, with 1 strongest)
Thanks
Sam

Q: Hi,

I have had Heico on my watchlist for quite some time but never purchased any because of the premium valuation. Everything I read about it (including the questions/answers on 5i) is positive so I'm wondering if it is one of those stocks that warrants a premium valuation, ie. will always be expensive?

I do own some Ferrari (RACE) shares which have done well for me and are also at a premium valuation, but it seems (at least so far) that it deserves the premium. Same story for my Tesla shares. So I am wondering if Heico is similar to RACE and Tesla in that way? Would you consider a purchase of Heico for a growth investor with a long time frame?

Thank you,

Q: Could you please share your top 3 picks in the luxury goods "sector"? Please order starting with the best and a (very) brief reason for the pick (if I'm not asking too much and the time allows). Got interested because, it seems to me, that the wealthy and the luxury companies they're buying things from are doing just fine, recession or not.
Many thanks!
