\n\t\t\n\t\t\t

Opinion about GIB.A-T: Investor parents in late 80s, this name is down this year. Price target ~$155. Adviser pushing to sell and move into silver. Son is worried.

Opinion about CSU-T: These guys buy SaaS as their general business model. Some concerns in Silicon Valley and other places that AI is going to replace a lot of what SaaS can do. That could be a problem for a company like this one. It's been a great play for the past decade.Going forward, there…<\/p>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n\t

\n\t\t\n\t\t\t

Opinion about SHOP-T: He made some nice $$ on it as it reached former peaks. But the stock blew by those and took out old resistance of 2021 highs. That's a breakout, and it's bullish, so nothing wrong with this stock.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n\t

Opinion about BEW-X: Caught attention of market as numbers continued to ramp up. Very big move, now consolidating. Will probably eventually get taken out for its technology and customer base. Trades thinly. May itself be looking for a small acquisition.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
