Q: I have owned PKI for 10 years and have done OK but now am building a case to sell. I see PKI as a company whose assets spans an oil refinery to M&M frozen foods with oil distribution and convenience stores in between. Now is facing significant capex to add EV charging stations and facing more competition in this area with the announcement that the major auto companies are to build out charging stations across Canada.

Please shot holes into my thesis. Am looking to replace with EIF, your thoughts on this company would be appreciated. Thanks. Derek

Q: WELL ( even) , EIF (up), EGLX (ouch ), are my only TFSA holdings and are in equal amounts.

Would you give 3 of your best picks of Canadian small caps ( other than the above ) with reasons why. I can handle risk.
Thanks. Derek

Q: With US inflationary concerns (hopefully) receding and the Fed finally pausing on US interest rate hikes (again hopefully) I'm hopeful the US market strength will broaden from some of the mega cap names like NVDA down to more mid-cap opportunities. Are there any mid ($2.5-20bn market cap) names you like currently/would suggest? (US or Canadian)
