Q: QHR Corp/Technologies
Hi Peter and Team,
QHR has been continually growing, just had great Q2 results, has had insider buying more than 200,000 shares in the past week (as shown in Can. Insider - marker tab)and stock is still declining and trading sideways for some time now. Stock should be continually going up, am I missing something? Would be great to get your opinion on the Q2 results, and you overall opinion of this company and perhaps why stock hasn't moved up.
Thanks,
Brenda

Q: Team,

Can I get your opinion on MCR's results please.

Obviously the headline numbers are a huge miss (and the market is punishing it accordingly). I would have thought the losses in their fixed contract fiasco, and subsequent impact on margins, was already priced into the stock, but I guess not. They claim to be moving away from fixed contracts moving forward. They keep referring to that contract as a 'strategic contract' (I assume that means they were trying to buy a relationship by under cutting their competition...), do you see this bearing fruits by way of future (non fixed) contracts moving forward?

I purchased a very small position earlier in the year, and have averaged down a couple of times (I own MCR and E as my small cap exposure to energy infrastructure). MCR is still a small position in my portfolio, maybe I love punishment, but the market cap is now only $100MM, It almost makes that much revenue every year, assuming they can fix the structure of their contracts and win a couple bids, it seems like it has nowhere to go but up??!?… of course, I’ve thought that for some time now. I don’t like holding positions under a 1% weight in my portfolio so I feel like I should either cut it or add a little bit more? I’m fairly patient, but don’t want to keep throwing money behind a sinking ship either.

Q: Hi 5i team, The recent run-up in the shares of WIN. Is it a result of: (1) a change in the market's sentiment toward the company and is therefore broadly based or (2) a few big investors including maybe hedge-funds buying for a fast flip or (3) someone buying a stake for a bid or for activist influence? Afterall, the stock was at $8 plus when the company's situation was't that different from now. Thanks as always. Henry
