Q: Hi team,
I have not asked about ROKU since May. I have a sizeable position in it as I like its prospects as a major platform provider in the TV streaming space. It has done well this year and every time I am thinking about trimming back, I read another article touting its takeout potential due to its attractive position in the space. There was an article in Barron’s this week speculating that ROKU is now big enough to interest any one of the big tech/media giants. Even AMZN is viewed as a potential buyer even though it is a competitor with its Fire TV services. I know you guys don’t like picking stocks for their buyout potential, but I am wondering about your current outlook on ROKU. It never shows up on your list of favourite U.S. growth stocks and subscribers ask that question almost every week. Is it on your B list?
Thanks again,
dave

Q: Good Morning,
On average how long do strategic reviews take to complete? Does 3-6 months seem reasonable? They are coming up to 3 months so wondering if you think year end is a reasonable time frame to hear something? With Brent oil prices hovering around $85 things look even better for them.
Thanks
