Believes recent under-performance in tech due to sustainability of A.I. spending, and ability to continue to generate increased profits. However, if tech companies continue to deliver, performance will continue. The recent market volatility has created opportunities for investors to invest in quality names. Earnings expectations and stock multiples will be most important factors impacting stocks in the next few months.
Not concerned if there is a consumer slow down. Ability to generate consistent revenues. Strong brand recognized around the world. Technology allows for increased growth. Ability to generate strong profit margins excellent. Not concerned about regulation in the business - company able to maneuver around this.
Will continue to hold. Believes company is very high quality. Luxury market will always remain. High income earners will always have capital to spend on high end goods. Price "in-sensitive" shoppers will always exist. Large amount of brands that will always be strong.
Traditionally, company has had very high valuation. Technology is strong, but difficult to justify investment at this time. Cloud technology not going away, and demand will continue to rise. Business model also allows for steady revenues. Good for long term investors, not good for short term investors.
