Q: TransMedics might be trying hold its downward slide at current price $62ish. What would you suggest is risk vs reward senario taking a position here?
Q: Well Health has had a very nice run as of late and you seem fairly confident in its continued growth.
It is now about 3.5% of Total Portfolio. At what level do you think it would be good to trim since it is a small cap? Let it run, or take a bit off the table;)

Q: Forgive my skepticism, but should long term WELL investors be worried about being left holding the bag with the Wellstar spin off?
Q: Can you please comment on WELL announcement today about doing a spinout next year. Do you think is a compelling reason to initiate a position or add to an existing one?
Q: Thanks for your response to my previous question. Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, CVS is down 4% this morning on this news:
A Senate bill, sponsored by Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) and Josh Hawley (R., Mo.), would force the companies that own health insurers or pharmacy-benefit managers to divest their pharmacy businesses within three years.
But surely, if CVS divested their pharmacy business then the proceeds could be used to reduce their debt? So why has the market reaction been so harsh?

Q: If I understand correctly, HHL is a Canadian ETF that holds US or maybe global Health Care stocks, and HHL.U is the same fund in US$.
For US$ Health Care covered call ETF, would you recommend the HHL.U or would some other similar ETF be more suitable?
Thank you

Q: Hi is this company in your coverage universe? First impressions?
Q: On Oct 22, concerning ELV's quarterly results, you said, "a key issue was the 'timing mismatch' between Medicaid reimbursement rates and the higher healthcare needs of members" - an issue linked to post-COVID resumption of full-service healthcare.
But isn't this a case of 'one-off' cyclicality in an industry which was assumed to be secular? In which case, doesn't ELV become mis-priced as reimbursements and higher needs fall back into balance?
Finally, to operationalize this strategy, would it be preferable to seek-out the most beaten-down health insurer (perhaps you have suggestions), or to pick something like IHF (ditto)?

Q: Good evening 5i Team,
Can you please give me your current assessment of Profound Medical?
I've held this stock for about five years. It peaked in 2021 at just over $35, and with the recent drop (due to yet another financing), it's down to about $10.66. I've listened to each earnings call, and it's been the same message for years now that widespread adoption of their non-surgical MRI guided prostate cancer/BPH treatment is just around the corner.
Their "First-time CPT code reimbursement for TULSA" is to be effective January 1, 2025, and they recently partnered with Siemens in a co-sales/marketing deal.
Is more patience (along with patients) warranted here, or is it more likely time to move on? Thanks, Brad

Q: What are your thoughts on DHR as a long term play in the healthcare space? Stock seems to be unloved for the past couple of years after fantastic long term performance. It's spin off of Veralto created value but wondering what is the next catalyst for this stock / company?
It seems punished due to concerns on China but the company reinstated its buy back program last quarter and I would assume that since the stock is even lower they are seeing value and purchasing shares.
Is this a good position to continue holding and even adding at today's prices?

Q: Hi there, now that Trump and the Republicans are in full control for the next 4 years, where does that leave the cannabis industry going forward in the US?
Were the Republicans ever in favour of legalizing the industry in the US on a federal level?
What is your opinion on the industry going forward in the US now, as far as legalization is concerned, federally?
Any thoughts on what happens to all our Canadian companies wanting the market to open up in the US, WEED, TLRY, etc etc
Thanks!
