Q: I want to like SHOP but get put-off by the (forward) P/E. MELI scores better on P/E and RoE and appears to have momentum. Then there's SE, which shares MELI's P/E but shows better RoE growth; OTOH, it's somewhat more opaque.

I can see how SHOP might stand out on the basis of its global reach (i.e., which offsets possible weakness in North America), but have to wonder if, in the new world order, SouthEast Asia is the territory for e-commerce growth; ideas?

Q: HI folks
Sadly, I am down on all of these somewhere between 60 to 95%!!! They mostly but not all started out as somewhat small positions 2 to 4 years ago! I have time to wait longer but: 1)are there any that are absolute failures and therefore should be sold. 2) Would you please rate the selIs from 1 to 10 ..10 being the absolute SELL. 3)How many years should I give these? (tough to answer but just a guess). I will not get much at all for any of them! Please take as many credits as you see fit.
Much Thanks and happy Family weekend

Q: Hello,

In your response to the last question about Sea Limited, you mentioned that the next quarter would be telling as to its ability to grow profits. Can I get your assessment of this company now that it has reported?

The stock drop today has been brutal and I'm at a loss in a registered account, unfortunately. Can I ask what you would do with it? Thanks,

Q: I’m significantly underweight in my international equity holdings, according to your portfolio analyzer. I’m down a lot on SE and I appreciate you’re not fans of “doubling down” but I can’t help but think with all of the arms of this business that the stock won’t be worth considerably more than it’s current price in the next few years. Any thoughts on its growth prospects?

Q: Hi, Can I get your take on Sea Limited’s recent earnings? I thought they looked pretty good but this morning’s market reaction, not positive.

I’m at a loss on this one in a registered account but I still like the long story. Am I wrong? Would you hold, sell or add at this level? I understand it’s a personal decision…

Thanks,

Q: Hi there, I am down considerably on the above stocks. Can you please advise which stocks have the greatest chance to recover in the next few years? Most are over 70% down and should I sell some to reinvest in better operating companies such as GOOG and AMZN. thank you for your time.

Q: Over the past two years with the downturn of the market, I am down significantly with majority of these holdings in various accounts. I have a long-term 10+ year outlook, so looking to see if you feel any of these can be sold off given the outlook, management of the company? If so, what are your recommendations for a growth investor in either CAD/US stock options?

Thanks!!

Q: Hi! Doing some cleaning up and wondering if these are buy, sell, or hold. In reference to Shane's comments I also agree that it wasn't too long ago that so many advisors were recommending growth stocks at lofty prices. Having always been a more of a value investor I dipped my toes, but am feeling like I'd be too scared to ever enter any kind of a growth stock again. I know if interest rates peak you feel these can do well again but only time will tell and many investors have lost lots of money on the high growth names like in Cathy Wood's funds. Happy to hold any of these names if there could ever be a turn around. Thank you!

Thanks.
