Q: SVI is currently at $1.69 on the TSX Venture Exchange. Analysts high target price is $1.70. Current average buy recommendation is 1.25. However, the Parabolic SAR is at 1.74 and falling; MACD (0.04) is at the same level as the Signal and falling; the Histogram is at -0.003 and falling; the Price ROC is at 2.42% and falling; and the RSI is at 60.30 and holding. It made a profit of +0.01 in its last quater' it pays a dividend of 0.592%. Market Cap is $493.286 million. What is meant by a negative Beta (i.e. -0.415242?)
What has been driving the stock up since March of 2016 (i.e. 0.78 cents to $1.69; x2.2 approx.)?
Is this stock worth buying in a pull back?
Many thanks for this.

Q: Dear 5i,
I reviewed the Intrinsyc technology website to gain a better understanding of their products. ITC has a lot of innovative products/ideas with many future applications. I don't have a lot of knowedge in this area. What is there competitive advantage? Who are their main competitors? I assume there are many major tech companies developing similar products. ITC has a tiny market cap creating more risk/growth. What makes them a better company?
Thank you,
Kerri

Q: The first thing this morning I read a BNN headline: "Shopify reports bigger loss as expenses soar." Well, one thing for sure that's soaring is shopify's stock, up 6% on almost triple volume on early trading.

If anyone can shed some light on this predicament, it would be 5i.

Thanks as always

Rob
