Q: I would like your comments on FLGT's Quarter and future guidance. It looked like a blowout to me but the market reaction seems quite muted at the time I am writing this. Guidance is also impressive, calling for revenues of $800m in 2021 a 90% yoy increase after an impressive 2020. FLGT has great margins of around 50%, so 4X next years sales tells us its trading around 8 times next year’s expected earnings….8X forward P/E is what you might expect on a sleepy, slow-growth stock. What am I missing, or is this simply being ignored on a bad market day? A Buy?

Q: To Claudettes question. The unemployment benefit news came out at 11:30am stating the unemployment benefit was reduced from $300 to $400. One could deduce people view this as the first of many hits to the 1.9 Trillion infusion which investors seem to see as the trigger for inflation.

Q: As a relatively new investor, I am not sure what to do with Unity Software (U). I am currently down 40% since I picked it up leading to its earnings report which was not horrible. Since I am new to investing, can you offer some advice on how to approach this situation. Is it time to cut my losses and put it into something else? Or is this just a matter of picking it up at a bad time just before earnings that did not meet market expectations and now this big sell off in tech? Should i just take a deep breath and give this one the appropriate amount of time (how much time would you suggest?). I am trying to not be an emotional investor with such a loss so your advice would be greatly appreciated.

Q: The CBC has an article today ( https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/instalment-loans-payday-lenders-criticism-1.5936331 ) about the high fees being charged for high risk loans. Reading between the lines, there appears to be some speculation that the government will make changes in the next budget to drop the allowable interest rates being charged. Given this possible development, what is your view about the risk to GSY?

Thank you for your excellent advice and this wonderful service!

Q: Hi Team,
After a record year, my portfolio is getting smashed. (22% down already from peak). Very gut wrenching. I am heavy quality tech names (most on your favourite US list) as I believe long term this is where the most growth is in the world today. Question now is, does a person continue to hold at this point? Sell out? Or try to add? Also, do you believe the 10yr bond yield at 1.5% is really this big of concern for the fundamentals of these tech companies? I find a lot of the quality tech names have very little debt, and when they do need money often raise money using their high share prices instead of borrowing debt anyways. Your thoughts please on the current situation? Thanks
Shane.

Q: This company has come up on a couple of screeners that I have been running and I was wondering if you have any familiarity with it. I was surprised to see an $800 million dollar market cap. It strikes me as a possible candidate for a buyout from a company looking to expand their operations into the regions where SFC operates. In the meantime you would be able to collect a decent dividend. If you could weigh in regarding dividend safety I would appreciate it,
Thanks!
