Investment Q&A

Q: Hello 5i, I know you like CRWD as a cyber security company. Over the last 3 years FTNT has increased by 190% whereas CRWD has increased by 61%. I know that past performance is not a guarantee for the future, but if you had to buy just one today which one would you buy? Would you sell CRWD and replace it by FTNT? Thank you

Q: Good Afternoon

I currently hold TEAM(even), VEEVE(-10%) TRADEDESK(-10%),CROWDSTRIKE (-35%) and UNITY(-75%). Each of these positions make up less than 2% of my portfolio. Unfortunately there are no tax losses applicable. If you were to consolidate which ones would you keep or in turn what would you buy as a replacement

Thank you

Q: Good Morning,

For a 3 year hold, in what order might you considering buying these stocks today? If (theoretically) you already held CRWD and were losing patience waiting for its share price to rebound, might you swap it for one of the other two stocks listed or hang in?

Q: I own both of these in small positions. I want to sell one and add to the other. Long term hold. Which would you recommend to keep.

Q: Not clear why this fund goes nowhere or down? Keeper for the next year? Seems odd in the days of hacking and security needs. Your thoughts please.

Q: It looks like I will need to sell a position or two to pay the tax man. Please rank the companies listed. Thank your

Q: Peter; I’m debating adding to CRWD or buying some PANW? Thanks

Q: Peter; Anything on CRWD a this am for the sharp drop ? Thanks

Q: Hello 5i; I would appreciate your thoughts on cybersecurity stocks. I know you like CRWD but asking about CHKP and your take on the best in this space. Many thanks as always. Barbara

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I’m down on all the above stocks as follows CRWD Down 36%, ETSY down 40%, PINS down 52%, PYPL down 64%, SQ down 72% and U down 77%.

With a 2 to 3 year horizon which of these are worth holding and which once I should sell and can you suggest US replacements and not necessarily in the same asset class. Just good stable companies that have good growth potential to outperform the indexes.

Take as many credits as you feel necessary.

Thanks
Joe

Q: Would you recommend purchasing Crowdstrike Holdings (cyber security) at current levels ($129.00/$132.00) as a 3 to 5 year hold? if no, any better recommendations in this field?
Many thanks

Q: Please suggest a buy, hold or sell on the following based on the idea that the markets may not yet have found bottom, and these are likely to sink lower in price before a markets turn around: TSU, NVDA, ROKU, TOI, NVEE, CRWD. Thanks!

Q: In my last question I did not have the correct symbol for Sentinel One. (question picked up on Sherrit, which I don't own) Please compare the three cybersecurity companies in terms of hold for recovery, sell for tax loss. I am holding all three at a loss.

Q: I hold all three companies , all bought when share prices were higher. Comments and rankings on these three please. All have shown some gains recently. Are they worth holding for improved macro conditions and eventual recovery? All three are in a taxable account, so should any be sold for tax loss?

Q: hi, I think you mis-read my question. I own CRWD already. and also you did not comment on BABA. could you please add a follow up... thx

Q: hi, I hold the above in my USD account. I was thinking of trimming NVDA now and see if there is a pullback to repurchase, over the next few weeks/months. MMM not doing much, and you mention not much growth. dividend is nice, but I don't need it. do you think trimming or selling MMM and adding to any of above (?BABA, down again). or do you have any other ideas for the USD account ( growthy, but low-low mid risk). thx, chris

Q: Crowd reported what appears to be good results in their latest quarter, although the losses increased. I would appreciate your comments.

Q: Hello Peter,

I think the market either goes down some or takes a breather for a couple of weeks as it digests the probability of a higher peak interest rate. I would like your opinion please.
In that context I am thinking of taking some profit on some of my long term positions that have rebounded with the intention of raising cash and legging in again as the rebound happens. At the same time I like them a lot and do not want to keep chasing after I sell. Just want to manage my risk without options.
In the semiconductor space I have a full position in NVDA and QCOM and half positions in ON and AMD. How would you suggest I trim, or should I go along for a bumpy ride?
As regards CRWD, I am in a conundrum. I like the space and it is my only holding there. It is also expensive. How would you suggest I manage the risk from here- I do not trade options.
Looking forward to your suggestions.
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Hi Peter,

It seems the market wants to take a breather what with inflation being sticky- makes me hesitant to put in new money?

Would you be a buyer of TWLO after today's price surge or wait for it to settle (and maybe miss the boat)? How would you compare it to CRWD as far as the return on investment is concerned? I have been using CRWD as a benchmark for comparison of risky growth stocks. Do you think that is a reasonably fair and quick method to evaluate ?

Q: Could you please rank the above tech stocks. I am trying reduce the number of stocks i have and I can't decide which of the above i should sell or trim.
