Q: What are your thoughts regarding lingering inflation and the market?

There seems to be heightened conversations around a recession. Is it best to continue to pick away at stocks even though we are close to all time market highs?

Interested on which you think will perform better in a crypto bull market? An ETF like IBIT or something like COIN? Also, the fact that I've warmed up to crypto should be a warning to everyone that it's going to fall. :)

TIA!

Q: This question is more about Portfolio Analytics.

Portfolio Analytics indicated I was slightly higher in energy than I should be. In reviewing the energy holdings, I was surprised that Nextracker Inc was considered as an Energy holding not a Tech.

Although my trading platform says it is a Tech stock, I suppose a case may be made for it being an Energy stock. I was hoping to understand your rational for it.

I have considered PDI as part of my Fixed Income portfolio. Is this wrong?
