It's battled privacy issues in recent years, but not lately because of the virus. Now, we are spending more time online to socialize, so FB is poised to do well. They're growing cash flow and revenue around 21%. They trade at just over 20x PE. Still a cheap stock, and growing fast. (Analysts’ price target is $237.74)

He likes it. The issue is that a lot of their revenue comes from advertising. They saw a flattening out of that decrease in advertizing. He thinks it will come back on others of their digital platforms. He thinks some of their platforms are not fully monetized. We may have to give up some civil liberties to have a normal life here.

He bought in recently. Earnings a few weeks ago actually showed a 2% revenue beat. They really are best in class in return on investment. He sees a near term floor of $200 -- a good level to buy. His target is $300. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $235.82)

They reported earnings last week that were tremendous. Internet advertizing is weak but will probably have growth for the year. It knows what people want. The goal is to be a super app and to monetize payments. (Analysts’ price target is $235.59)

He does not own FB. He prefers GOOG, which has a stronger financial position and has a better advertising revenue model. Online advertising cuts will impact both of these companies, however. He thinks GOOG will remain profitable going forward.

It was in good shape before this crisis. There is no point in businesses advertizing when they are closed, so revenues from advertizing could go down but people will spend more time on Facebook when locked down so exposure should go up. Watch the valuations and how they move into the election due to allegations of false news on their platform.

He's still concerned about getting Facebook's earnings in a month when that is released. Likely then, he will bring down his hedge and get more invested in this and other big tech companies.

Holding cash, now what? It is difficult not knowing what the investor's needs are. You really should partner with a professional. Consider taking a wider portfolio approach. Longer term, he likes FB and GOOG. A sector that will benefit over the next decade.

TFSA? The volatility across markets is extremely high right now. Over the next 12 months, he is liking the risk-return prospects now. The market could still go lower from here. Don't max out your investments now, begin in pieces. FB, GOOG and AAPL are good places to begin.

In times like this, look at areas that have been completely smashed. You also want to own the best companies in the world that have sold off with the market. Stock's still growing at a decent clip, 8%. Still a disruptor.

Talked about launching Libra, an interesting form of cryptocurrency. Washington read them the riot act on it, so institutions that were interested backed away. A great business, benefiting from online advertising. He prefers Google. Had a pretty good run, so hold off on buying. Good, solid free cashflow and business.

$195 is the first line he'd like at--will FB stay above it? $170 is the next line. If this goes sideways at $195, then enter it. The other level is $160, so if it falls below that, then sell.

He thinks now is the time to consider setting an upward target -- his is $248. You could buy it here. There expense growth has been exceeding their revenue growth, which was in line with expectations due to privacy requirements. As an election year, he expects some big advertising revenues. A hold for now.
