Q: Have had this on my watch-list for awhile now and would love your analysis as an alternative to pot in general and do you think it has the ability to get back to its high of $140 or was it just the pot hype that drove it there.

Q: LSPD punished on Monday. A China based virus seems an unlikely catalyst for the 7 % decline on a day when not much moved so significantly. Simple profit taking after the run up or has something changed? Is it a stronger buy on Tuesday than it was Friday or do you monitor now for lost momentum?

Q: Hi
I want to reduce tech in my RRSP.
Did very good with XQQ thinking of changing to EQL
Why:
EQL only 13% tech Vs. XQQ 57%
EQL 11 sectors Vs XQQ 8 sectors
EQL higher dividend

Does this make sense?

If any other suggestions please feel free.

Thank You

Mike
