Q: High growth stocks. A recent NP piece by Peter H. advised investors consider these vs. conservative picks coming out of a bear market. "Stocks that used to be 50X sales are now 3X sales and still growing at 50%+...a Bloomberg screen shows 982 companies with 50% sales growth in the next year."

Could you provide 10 Cdn. stocks in this category or better yet provide a link to the Bloomberg screen. Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,
I have been following Sierra Wireless since mid May when it reported results that significantly beat expectations. It has moved steadily higher and today on above average volumes, it was up 6.45% on a down day in the market and hit a 1 year high and closed slightly below this high. I am wondering if SW will be a big beneficiary of the Federal Governments initiatives for a new telecom framework for resiliency through mutual assistance and emergency roaming? Would appreciate your thoughts on this perspective and what other companies could be beneficiaries?
Thank you

Q: If you go back in time anywhere from today to a few months, a lot of stocks have a previous low whereas with NVDA and AMD it is not the case, they continue to make lower lows for a lot longer than a few months ago. Have you got a reason why? SW has been performing very well for quite some time but I didn't buy it because 5i has not been too fond of it. Is this still the case? Thank you

Q: Ah! The widow and orphan stock.
What do you think? After all these years of never being able to gain traction, is now their time?
Just like nvdia when it did nothing for years and then became the darling of the street. Been burnt twice with Sierra but I sense a huge turnaround with 5G or a buyout!
Peter: your opinion! Thanks.

Q: I know the orphan stock. Been burnt many times with this company. But now what do you think of their Esim technology which is touted as being huge to replace the traditional SIM cards?
For phones for cars, etc. The stock has moved up nicely but I always seem to get into this company at the right time it starts to go down again. They use to have lots of cash. Do they still?

Q: I was following this company IOTS due to its positioning in the internet of things space. I was looking at the company balance sheet and it seems to have reasonable revenues yet a negative cash flow. Do you think this company is a reasonable small cap buy? Are there any other companies in this space you suggest buying instead?

Q: Hi Peter
RE: reducing weight in Financials and adjusting to non dividend companies.
I am very overweight in Financials and well balanced otherwise in other sectors except Gold and Energy. I would like to trim the former into opportunities for growth.
Can you suggest 3 companies that have been had some "correction" but remain good picks for future growth ? (prefer non-dividend)
Thanks,
Peter

Q: I've followed this stock from $15 through $35 and back to $20. It seems like it's in the right industry, holds cash, has low debt, has been increasing both revenue and earnings (from what I can tell) but just can't get itself together.

Despite its 'widow maker' status, when is it just to cheap to pass up? When does it get bought out?
