Q: Hi 5i Aurinia pharma seems to have turned the corner with earnings and is also getting the drug into hospitals They are again reducing staff this time by 45%. They also have a new drug in trails. Please put on your speculative hat for the questions.

-would drug (Lupkynis) be of interest at this stage in development for another company to buy them and what would the buyout price be for the right company.
-going forward they will make about $220,000,000 a year this took about 3 1/2 years with a covid launch, what do you see max sale's being with the current set up and how many years to get there.
-Do you think Aurinia is a good speculative buy.

Thank you for your service!

Q: Hi,

If not already asked can you please comment on the most recent Well acquisition and the potential to the revenue and EPS increases going forward, ie accretion with the acquisition.
Is the Walmart Canada mention in this same news release a pilot project where if successful it will get rolled out to multiple Walmart Canada sites or is it already implemented in multiple sites (via the acquisition) and if so how many stores, 25, 50, 75, 100% of all Walmart Canada in store pharmacies?
Just trying to gauge the impact of the news release. The stock did not move much so assumption is that it is not that material.

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Being that the USD is quite high right now, what would be the best out of these three HHL ETFs to buy this fall? I have Canadian dollars so would be moving the money to USD to buy HHL.U. From their site it looks like the HHL.B is the best performer overall but I'm not clear how today's rates effect price etc.

Also would it make sense to have another fund like VHT or IYH to compliment HHL, which would give more upside over time? In one response you like VHT better - why is that?
Thanks so much!
