Q: Hello dear team,
Hope you are well and had the chance to enjoy some good weather.
What are your thoughts on this company ?
my known facts(hope they are right)
They have 5 ODD with the FDA and some of them are on the fast track to be commercialized ?
they are partner with one if not the biggest mexico pharma (which is also World wide?) for the commercialization of Cauzma ?
they recently raised something like 10 000 000 $
Everything seems to be going well and on track with the company and they have been delivering.

How do you think they could perform and in how long you think they will start to benefit from their hard work ?
how do you think this company could do in 5 years, if we do an optimistic and a pessimist scenario.

thank you for your time and response.
stay safe,

Q: We have had 10,000 shares at an avg cost of .58 cents of Medmira sitting in our portfolio for years - assuming it was pretty much a dead duck In the last few days, however, it has sprung to life quacking with an announcement of now providing C19 testing kits . I've read the news info but cannot determine if this is just a flash in the pan and we should grab the money and run. Or, is there something really here that might be a business that can bring the share price up to or past our average cost. Would appreciate your experienced eye in looking at this situation and hearing what your thoughts might be.
Many thanks as always.

Q: Hello!
1) I would like to get a good, general US healthcare etf .. what might you recommend now? (Long term income investor)

2) also, I would like an etf that has companies like Sanofi and GSK, at decent weights .. what do you think? I see that VYMI has them but at very low percentages.

Appreciate your advice. Thank you!

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

As luck would have it after being under water for two years on GILD I dumped it at $63.

It’s gone straight since then mostly because of a possible covid vaccine . I note you like it and while I obviously hope they or someone has a vaccine soon , I wonder about your thoughts for it going forward if they do not come up with a vaccine for covid .

Thanks for all you do
Dennis
