Executing well. Increasingly employing AI in day-to-day operations. Growing use in government/defense plus strong adoption by commercial customers.

Proving it can turn demand into profit and cashflow. Revenue grew an exceptional 85% last quarter. Valuation remains her biggest concern (roughly 40x next year's sales), leaving little room for disappointment/error. Be cautious.

Let it run. The stock got ahead of itself and is expensive, but if you took shares off the table, hold onto the rest.

The only software name he owns. Beaten down because it's put in the software bucket, plus relatively expensive compared to peers. Sometimes you have to pay up for a best-in-class asset. Last quarter's numbers blew it out of the water. Growing 80% YOY, very profitable. 

Accelerating commercial revenue on top of government contracts. Helping companies adopt AI.

Since September, it's been in a downtrend. Maybe the chart is basing, maybe. Wants to see a breakout first. 

Is a defence play. Is down 28% because it's unfairly lumped into the software space. It will recover over time.

That's a tired chart. It was the go-to name. Big US contracts. A hard one to get your head around. Take a look at the PEG ratio. It's going to be a winner, but is there disappointment risk in the stock?

It can't be hurt by any AI. He stands by it.

It had a massive run and is now consolidating, but is seeing lower highs. Is support the past month, but hasn't broken out. Is neutral-downward. Reaching $150-160 would be encouraging, but is sideways now.

Customers love them, they have a great product, and the company is building a new base, though shares are -21% in the past 6 months.

Fabulous earnings back in February, tremendous outlook, and government contracts with US Army. Pressure on SaaS companies overdone. A Buy now, and a long-term hold. 

Only drawback is that the stock's very expensive. So there's no good valuation support, and she doesn't own it. 

But nothing really wrong with the story, so she wouldn't recommend a Sell. If you liked it a month ago, nothing has changed. Pretty well positioned on defense. Fundamentals are in favour of it, so she'd hold. 

For these high-beta stocks, you can't be getting nervous about them. If you don't want to stomach the high volatility, look for a more diversified solution or for a stock that's less volatile.

Was up 135% last year, but trades at 175x PE. Remains one of the fastest-growing stocks, up 3.68% today alone.

Though up 148% this year, it still has room to run. It just entered a terrific contract with the US Navy to build better submarines. He expects more Pentagon contracts.

A strong CEO. Keeps beating expectations. Good margins. Don't short it. Yes it's richly valued at almost 300x PE.
