Q: I was in my car yesterday listening to CNBC when a chain of events occurred.
3.59PM - We look forward to to the results from Amazon's quarterly report after the bell.
4.01 PM - Interesting but AMZN is up 5% after the close. We await the results.
4.03 PM - We now have the results
4.05 PM - AMZN beats top and bottom line. The stock now up 10% "after hours"
Next morning the G & M reports the results. Stock is up 13% "after hours".
My questions are these . Who are these people that trade "after hours" and how do I get into this club?
Say I placed a $2000 US sale order at the beginning of the week on AMZN, is that only good during "normal" hours. What if I wanted to take that down after seeing the results? Or was it able to be sold at 4.01 PM yesterday?
How were people able to discern they wanted to buy the company at 4.01 PM? My guess, insiders who knew the financials prior to release?
Why does the SEC allow this? It only propagates the notion that the whole system is rigged.

Q: I own positions in each of these companies and am wondering about the future prospects of each.
Regarding FCR, does the recent activity of a major shareholder (Gazit Globe) selling some of its shares and an intention to sell more, significantly reduce the future price of the shares? Another way of expressing this is the freedom from Gazit allowing the company to improve their prospects?
REI seems to be a company that has stalled over the last few years. I realize they have been suffering from their holdings in shopping centres but have expected a more positive improvement.
Please give me your opinion on the prospects for each over the next 2 years as I am considering selling both positions.

Q: Currently reviewing my positions in the precious metals streamers/royalty companies. I currently have a 3% position in FNV and 1% in WPM. Thinking of selling WPM and adding a 2% position in MMX. Does the shift from WPM to MMX make sense or should I just increase my exposure to FNV?

Q: Re: "Baby Brother Strategy"
I read PH's FP article of 06/20/19 as it echoed my own thoughts about AT (though I do not pretend to possess the same analytical tools).
Could you elaborate further on that idea? I was also wondering if you can speak to programmatic advertising and if AT has any competitive advantages or moats or is it simply going head to head with TTD and others? Thank you.
