Q: I have now read the Jan 8, 2018 research by Beacon Securities, and the Jan 5, 2018 Equity Spotlight by Scotiabank. Beacon has a target of $10.00 and Scotiabank's 1 year target is $3.50. One believes that the current pot legalization frenzy has siphoned off big money from the likes of PLI stock. The other believes that this is the year science will finally give PLI the push it needs to really grow. I'm ready to go big or go home if I see a real upward trend in the making. PLI has huge potential, and it probably has huge negatives that I can't even imagine. Where do you think this stock is going in 2018?

Q: Hello 5i team,

Am a break even CWC shareholder and participated in the $0.20 rights offering last month. Just went through their presentation PDF from a conference today.

With service sector performing better in the US and oil patch guys getting more $$, might there finally be interest in this company controlled by BAM?

Thanks, Alan

Q: This stock was talked about by an technical analyst at BNN recently. The chart was trending down for a long time and recently started to break out to the upside and he thought it would be a good time to enter this stock. Also, on BNN ET was a favourite. Could you give me your opinion on these two questions? Thank you very much. Long time member Dennis

Q: Request 5is view on Caldwell Partners.
How is the company's business model, quality of management and profitability?
The gross margins seem to be good but net margins seem too thin and not sustainable.
How big can they grow? Currently they are at $58 million revenue. Can they scale up or will they remain small company forever?
Does it have potential to attract institutional investors?
Too many questions but Im trying to understand the company because the stocks liquidity and trading is nothing much to speak of. My concern on trading is will this remain a penny stock and later get in to restricted list or get delisted?

Q: In a national post article, you mentioned that this could be the year of takeovers. I know you don't have a crystal ball but what stocks do you think could be attractive to a bigger player, e.g. the acquisition of Pure by Xlem. I note that Celestica appears real cheap but doesn't move. Perhaps someone might decide to come and buy this baby. Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter.
Just read your Post article and looked into current losses for pruning. My losses are the four highlighted.
I have a sense however that it is too early to prune the small caps(ITC, GUD and PTE) since I have held them for very short duration; not even a single earnings report. And it is likely a good idea to hang on to CGX given its monopoly position and new slate of movies generating Buzz.
I continue to hold CPG for the now 3% dividend and hope of investors returning to Canada and CPG.

Except CPG, all the losses are small $ value as I was only beginning to step into each of the small caps as they tumbled........(and all the losses are in registered accounts)

Would you allow these names to be included in the new years clean up or give them more time to let current themes run their course; current oil price movement for CPG and business execution for ITC, CGX, GUD and PTE?

Thanks
Dave
