In this week’s Club Mailbag, Robert from New York raises an interesting question about the Investing Club’s top holdings being tech-related. He points out that diversification has been emphasized over the years, and he has made it a priority in his own portfolio. The response from the Investing Club team sheds light on their approach to diversification in the age of technology, emphasizing factors such as end market exposure rather than sector classification. They provide a detailed explanation in a previous piece and highlight the importance of considering companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet, which operate in different sectors but are major players in cloud computing.
Another question from Vick in Louisville, Kentucky, focuses on how to determine if a company has a share repurchase program. The team explains that this information can be found in the company’s financial statements, specifically in the balance sheet and cash flow statement. They provide guidance on where to look for the current share count, the dollar amount of shares purchased, and how to analyze the impact of share repurchases on shareholders’ ownership percentage and earnings per share.
Overall, the responses from the Investing Club team offer valuable insights into their investment strategy and provide helpful tips for investors looking to understand the role of technology in their portfolios and how to assess companies’ share repurchase programs. As always, subscribers to the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer receive trade alerts and valuable information to guide their investment decisions.
