Q: Hi 5i.

I am hoping you can answer this question, which has been puzzling me for awhile. Every day, when I look at the list of the top-traded stocks on the NASDAQ in the Financial Post, MSFT is never there. I can't understand why this would be. Is it because a huge percentage of the stock is held by institutions that simply do not trade it?

Q: Zebra Technologies just reported earnings and, while it beat expectations and has a solid backlog and pipeline, the outlook is looking rather dismal due to so much macroeconomic uncertainty. I was also wondering, with so many customers buying during the pandemic, how long until you think they will need to upgrade? I know the company is expanding into adjacent markets and internationally but wonder if most businesses now have the technology in place. Would you move on? Or hold? Thank you.
