Q: Hi 5i
With the current run up in the gold and silver markets , what is your outlook for this sector going forward and the potential impact of upcoming fed meeting. Are lower interest rates a positive or negative for gold/silver.
Would you be comfortable continuing to hold a company such as AYA with expectation of further gains and time frame, how far out would you be looking.

I am always wary of sudden surges in share prices and thus reacting by selling to early.

thx

Q: Good morning,

Could I please ask for your general thoughts on this company. Earnings seemed (?) strong but it plunged. Smaller-cap, but might it be a buy/hold? All your comments necessary!

Have a good day, and thanks!

Q: I currently own a small position in GSY in my TFSA. Tired on the volatility of this stock and considering changing for HPS.A. Sector change is ok.
Which of the two would you consider to have better growth prospects for a 5 year hold? Why?

Thanks,

Jim

Q: I see Volkswagen has licensed QS’s latest battery fabrication process called “Cobra”. Risks persist certainly but it is a milestone achievement. My take on the company is they may make batteries for the auto industry in the US but they will try to generate significant revenue from having other world wide businesses make them and collect royalties. There is a danger other companies will try to reverse engineer the batteries so money will need to be spent protecting their patents.
It never gets easy!

Q: In my TFSA the following companies are all in the red: ATS, DRX, KSI, LUCA, NTR, PSI, PXT. Can you suggest which ones are likely to recover in the next year or two, and which ones I could sell as laggards and reinvest the money in something "growtier". Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter,

I have a question on Well Health and their Competition Bureau issue. Would it not be bullish for a company of Well's size to be considered to have a competitive edge on Telus, Loblaws et al considering it only has about 2% of the Primary Care clinics in Canada. I am wondering if this is an opportunity especially during tax loss.

Q: In your answer to Murray about the Q3 ZOMD earnings report, you said that eps was .097 and revenue was $24.93, both meeting expectations. Their report indicates that eps was .06 cents - are you making adjustments to get to the .097 figure? If so, what adjustments are you making? Also, the reported revenue was $16.1 million US, which would be about $22.5 million Cdn, so I am wondering how you arrived at the $24.93 figure. Thanks,

Q: Hello Everyone,

May I have your thoughts on SMX:US (security matters) please? Talk about an absurd chart. Is there something real here in the premise of its molecular-level verification system that is permanent through the processing stages as a form of verification? Or is this more likely a pump and dump?

I only heard about it today, so I'm just staring to look into it and would appreciate your assessment. It's done 1000% in 2 days. Yikes.

Thank you,

Sandra

Q: I’m only interested in Canadian compounders. Compounding companies that are mid to large cap that I am invested in are CSU, TOI, LMN, TFII, and ATD. Can you recommend 5-10 possibilities for 5-10 year compounders in the Canadian small cap space?
