Q: With this latest revenue fiasco at RHT I am swearing off Canadian healthcare stocks for good. I have been a 5i member since day one, greatly value your service and am not trying to lay any blame here. I lost 80% with Patient Home Monitoring and 97% with Concordia before getting out of these, and am now down 85% with RHT. I agree no one is clairvoyant, but this seems to be a recurring theme in Canadian healthcare. Any thoughts on how we can spot and stay away from names like these in the future?

Q: It doesn't always work and some picks are disappointing but thanks for preaching diversification and reasonable stock weightings. As a % of my portfolio the loss will easily be covered. What I am not sure is how to divest my position for maximum return. Should I just bail ,let the dust settle or is the drop oversold and should I hold. Thanks John

Q: What did you think of Aphria's earnings? Looks like they delivered eps of 9 cents a share when $0.00 was expected. Thompson Reuters has their current fiscal year (2019) estimates at 14 cents. Looks like a muted outlook considering what I thought was a pretty decent Q1.

Your thoughts?

Q: The other day a question was asked about this Company and earnings reporting. You had suggested that you would contact the Company for confirmation. Any word?

As a follow up, your best guess as to the run on the stock would be appreciated. I note that there doesn’t appear to be any insider buying, is that problematic if insiders don’t believe in their own stock at such a discount to its yearly high? Or are they blacked out from purchasing stock?

All the best!

Q: Hi 5iResearch.
Folks thank you for such a wonderful service.

Thoughts on this business, my friends on another website say the ROIC is around 16% on average over the last 5 years. The Operating Inc. is 22M over a market cap of 212M - so the earnings on enterprise value is ~ 10%..... Very low capital requirements and such a healthy ROIC.......this rate must be beating the company's WACC.... whats your take ?

Good business, cheap and creating value for shareholders when I put my monacle on my right eye........
