Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I see that Valiant has some assets that other will purchase. Does CXR have any assets that people would want to purchase. VRX had a pop of 10 % today on announcement of selling assets. Any hope for CRX selling something to get a pop in their shares or is it DEAD ! I noticed CXR was up today. Was that in sympathy to VRX move ? RAK

Q: I attempted to ask about this stock yesterday but it appears to have not been received.This stock has been sitting between 7-8 dollars for a few years now. It appears to have a +20 ROE and no debt. Can you think of any reason for it's inability to appreciate?

Thank You, Stephen S

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I have PD and I am currently down close to 40%. I am interested in selling and moving the remained of the money into GUD. I feel like PD is dead money for a long time. What are your thoughts on this trade?

Thank you.

Q: Knight Therapeutics (GUD) is my largest holding. Each morning, I get up and while doing the usual ten minute standing ab routine to get going, I wonder what Johnathan Goodman is doing. Unlike me, he has about $760M in cash in his pockets and, again unlike me, he seems unwilling to part with it. I completely understand this is a long term investment and I look at it as a form of security for our future but if he were to go out and buy "someone big" with a product line and a sales force, I can't help but dream that this stock will multiply significantly. Can you send him a message and tell him to start doing those ab exercises. He needs to get moving.
Am I being a little impatient and do you see any signs of activity that might be remotely encouraging?
Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,

People on social media (myself included) are trying to understand why there is such a high short position for AUPH, best guess is around 12mm. Also, there is confusion regarding the growing institutional holding of around 45% (best guess), are they taking shares from retail. Further, no one seems to fully understand the implications of the options traded (puts and calls). Can you help clarify, is it possible to read anything into these activities?

Many Thanks,

Q: Could you please comment on SIS movement in share price today.
What do you think of PHM's earnings they seem to be trending in the right direction. With the aging demographic are they finally getting it together trending in the right direction. So is it time to move in to the stock. However the shares are slightly down today. Is the negative influence of the original hustler owners not subsiding? Thank you for your great assistance.

Q: 5i research has always been big on gud. It appears that investors are becoming impatient waiting for the company to make a move while sitting on so much cash and the share price trading below $10 for the first time in a while. Is there anything to indicate that some type of purchase is in the offing? Thanks for your response.

Q: I am very pleased with performance of SIS. I have a double past 12 months.

Question is what other Canadian Companies will benefit from the aging of Canadians. I read that 10,000 Americans a day reach the age of 65 ( The Baby Boomers ) and this will continue for the next 18 years. That is a lot of people that will need some form of assistance. We must have similar demographics in Canada.

What U S Companies fall into this category as well as Canadian Companies Thanks very much. bob
