Q: PLX is an Israeli Bio co. not showing in your system.
I bought a small position 6 months ago as I am very interested in the diseases they are working to try to alleviate and potentially cure. It has gone up in price nicely this week after company update to shareholders.
Would appreciate your views. Is this a hold or worth buying more at this stage. John.

Q: Hello Peter, Ryan, and 5i Team,

I know you haven't been a big fan of these two companies in the past, due to some questionable management issues before they split from Patient Home Monitoring. However, Viemed shares have surged since listing on the Nasdaq (with some help from Covid) and PTQ has shown recent momentum with last week's announcement of a pending Nasdaq listing. Could you please give me your current thoughts on these two companies? Specifically, does the potential for a cross-listing gain with PTQ outweigh some of the other concerns, or would you still be wary? Thanks, Brad

Q: Hello team,

Of the 3 companies above, BEAM has 3 times more shares sold short (18% of the float) but all three have been on a run.
If you could buy only one which one would you choose today as a great company for a long-term hold and which one you would rather avoid? And of course why?

Thanks for making investment accessible for ordinary people.

Q: In your answer to a question recently asked on Genomics, your suggestion was to buy an ETF such as ARKG or EAGB. You also mentioned that if so inclined you could start adding small amounts in specific stocks which of course be riskier. Would you be able to suggest 3 or 4 of these stocks either US or Canadian, preferably at least one of each.

Q: I am interested in investing in Health Care Robotics. I am looking at Stryker and Medtronic. I am leaning toward MDT due to lower entry point and higher dividend. Based on history and statistics which one would you favour? Could you suggest similar companies for consideration?
Thank You
Jane

Q: Hi Team,
A couple different parts to this question. The "Geno" sector has exploded this year. Different hot names in the sector seem to be moving 10-20% daily. I have buddies now piling into these names now, so am wondering if maybey there's a "top" coming here soon? Or if you think this Euphoria will continue in the sector? To me it almost feels like gambling to try to buy in to these things right now. Also on this topic, can you briefly give your thoughts on what has made the Geno sector suddenly start to move this year? Its not like geno work is a new thing...or is it just hitting some major progress this year? Same can be said for the EV sector. For fear of "missing out" I am tempted to sell KXS out of my rsp for a slight gain as I hold this name in 2 different accounts to raise funds to buy EAGB (the canadian version of ARKG). My portfolio is currently heavy weighted tech and I currently have no Geno exposure. Is EAGB the best way for me to play this sector long term, or do you have any explosive individual GENO names you would recommend buying for a multi bagger possibility? I have heard BNGO has some good things coming its way? .....Or should I wait for a pullback in the massive run up before I think about doing this...or not at all? If I did buy EAGB I would probably buy and hold it for years as a way to play the sector. It does seem like there could be some major breakthroughs down the road in geno technology.
