Investment Q&A

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

Q: Thank you for your kind answer to my earlier question suggesting PTE,AVO and GSY.
Any sub 5 dollar stocks, other than ECN/GUD? I bought ECN, again reading your Q&A section! GUD is above 5 bucks but bought it anyway as it was your top tax loss selling candidate.
Thanks in advance.

Q: Hey Peter & Team,

Seems I'm all about Cannabis these days. QCC today reported the first sale of their BOSS Co2 Extraction System into the US market and the price immediately jumped and is now up over 55% on the day with a volume of 4.8M. (ave 384K)

Had another frank conversation with an executive in the company and he informed me they have a number of sales in the pike after a very good showing at the MJBiz Conference in Las Vegas a month ago.

Things I have noticed... Moral around their offices is great. They genuinely believe in what they are doing and expect to do very well in the coming years plus, are looking to expand sales world wide. Their offices aren't fancy, don't even have a name or sign outside the building and the inside is neat, tidy and busy with no frills attached. Their markup on these units is 100% and they are expecting to sell a dozen if not more of of these proprietary systems per quarter next year. Makes sense considering they announced their first sale Dec 20, their 2nd the next day and now their 3rd system today.

I know I am in danger of sounding like a promoter but... I am now up almost 300% in less than 4 months and am starting to wonder what I should do. Buy Sell Hold... The original investment represented 0.5% of my portfolio.

If the announcement of three systems does this to the stock, what will happen when they start announcing additional sales at the same pace in the coming year?

Really look forward to hearing your advice.

Thanks for all you do

Q: Before the split, an old PHM share was worth ~31 cents and post split (1 new PHM @ 21 cents and 1/10 VMD @ 30 cents - 1 share currently $3.00) that share is now worth ~51 cents. Is my math correct in that the shares basically increased by 20 cents or 64.5% post split? if yes, can you explain why such a big increase. Thanks

Q: Firstly, JET Canada Jetlines getting ready to launch June 2018. A ultra low-cost airline. I know lots of others tried and failed. But sounds like they are starting small, experienced Team, interesting 5 year growth plan and working out of smaller airports. They say fly for the price of jeans. Are looking for international investors. Everyone looking for a deal. This could be the one that Survives and succeeds. Stock has doubled in last week. Your thoughts.

Secondly, Vertical Farming. Your thoughts on investing in this area.
Are there are any companies presently listed on the the stock market.
With global climate change I truly believe this will be the way
Of the future.

Happy New Year to Team 5i.
Best Wishes for 2018.

Q: Recently there has been talk about this company in news, blogs and investment circles. Does the company have a reliable business model with foreseeable level of profits? Or is it just purely speculative start-up operating in bit coin space hoping some big player will acquire them? Im not knowledgeable about bit coins or mining so request your advise. Thank you.

Q: Good Morning 5i team,

re: Cannabis... QCC gained 50% in the past 3 weeks and over 25% today after announcing the first two sales of their patented BOSS CO2 Extraction System. And expectations have it there are a number of additional sales expected in January with many more in the pike.

I know you have told us this is a small company with little attention being paid, so it is risky. Cannabis Oil is they wave of the future and from what I have learned, this BOSS system is impressive. I also know extraction of "high quality" Oil is a difficult process to master and it sounds like these guys have figured it out.

Would I be a fool to invest in this company?

Thanks for all you do
