Q: Over several years Savaria has grown and evolved from a Canadian company to one that now operates internationally. Is Savaria's leadership evolving accordingly? Does 5i feel that Savaria has identified, and is recruiting, new people to join the Board and Senior Management with the necessary experience and skills to help guide the firm in its next stage of growth?

Q: Dear 5i,
I am interested in speculating on this company with $1,000 to $2,000 which I am prepared to lose. Should I purchase this in my TFSA or NonReg account so I can use the tax loss if necessary? Can you explain your rationale for choosing one account over the other. I purchased Prometics awhile back and it did not turn out well. Would you say "ATE" has the same risk level as PLI?

thanks

Q: I have shares of HLTH in a cash as well as a registered account with TD Waterhouse and noticed that they are now showing as zero value in the accounts. I assume this has to do with them being recently delisted? This is new to me. Do the shares have value? Can I trade my shares now or in the future and how do I do that if they are delisted? If the shares are worthless, how do I go about claiming the tax loss in the cash account? I am really just looking for your guidance as to what you would do in this case. Help!

I also own AGN stock which has been a terrible performer for me. It perked up when ABBV made to offer to take it over. I believe the offer was for $188.24 in ABBV stock and cash but am not sure how that works,...in calculating how much ABBV stock you get, do they use the value of the ABBV stock on the day of the offer (June 25th) or the day of the closing (likely sometime 1st Q 2020)? Do we know what % of the $188.24 will be given in stock and what will be given in cash? Initially the discussion of the purchase was neutral to negative, but I noticed that ABBV has been getting upgrades recently and the narrative may be changing. If you owned AGN stock, what would you advice be?

Thanks You

Scott

Q: Hello Peter,

It looks like GH is caught in a down draft related to market rotation out of high growth stocks. Given the latest correction, how does the valuation look relative to the growth prospects longer term? What is your latest investment outlook on GH?

Great job at the Money Show!

Q: since guardant announced their earnings one month ago, increased their guidance, earnings were excellent, stock hit a 110, since then it has cratered big time from 110 to 80 in one month on no news, i exited at 96 with a small profit. it was too painful to watch.
my question is there has to be some reason, maybe their drug trials are not working as well as people think, something, a short report, etc nothing craters like this on no news.i can always buy it back but this is insanity. dave
