Investment Q&A

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

Q: Suggestion for 5i. Please be more careful in what stocks you feel will move up in price and raise to your customers' attention.
I see that MRS has fallen like a rock since 5i spoke so highly of it back I believe in April. A mere 7 months ago the stock was 70 cents and now under 20 cents. When 5i first touted the stock, I found it odd as it didn't seem all that solid a company for the long term, something that 5i keeps reminding customers about. MRS had won big government contracts but much was related to the pandemic. What would it do for an encore after the pandemic? I was lucky I guess and chose to pay little attention to it but I'm sure others didn't and had to take a loss. It's on us (customers) to due due diligence and decide what seems like good investments. But I expect 5i to raise names to our attention that fit a long term strategy and aren't get rich quick wonders. I supported the 5i decision to strongly caution against getting involved in the early days of cannabis stocks.
Keep up the good work, thanks

Q: Hi 5i team,
I just received notice from PFB that the board wants to sell out to
PFB Bidco for 24.10/share, a small premium to the current trading price. Am I correct in seeing this as just a way of taking the company private? Would that indicate that the trading price has been too low in their opinion? Any general lessons I should learn from this? (I'm in a profit position, but I was holding under the belief that there was still lots of upside.)
As usual, thank you so much, 5i, for your investment help and opinions.
