Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I had purchased both Amazon and Netflix in equal weighting for my US holdings, at 2.5% each. I rode the wave of Netflix to top $130 only to see it tumbling down right to where I started. No harm, no foul. The question is, though, is the long-term growth of Netflix intact, notwithstanding its recent slowdown? I tend to have faith in these behemoths re-inventing themselves, but it doesn't always work out. Would it make sense to move this money to Amazon, or does it make good investment sense to hang on. (The other position I was thinking of adding to instead of Amazon is NVDA, now held at 2.5%, roughly.) Thanks, as ever, for your sound advice.

Q: I know you don't specifically cover US stocks. But I've been watching Netflix and waiting for a good entry point as I think it's a good brand that will innovate and stay on top of the industry they are in. The stock is currently rallying and the information I got from Investopedia is that Netflix will have exclusive rights to Disney Marvel, Pixar and Lucasfilm films starting this fall. As an uneducated investor I'm wondering is this a good time to buy or is this simply a frenzy based on a news release that will cool down and the stock will return to trading around $90.00? I know you can't predict the future, but the educated opinions I have received from 5i have me up in 8 out of 10 stocks I have purchased this year.
Thanks
