Q: Dear 5i,
I am interested in perhaps investing 2 to 4% of my TFSA in the Lithium area. Can you suggest some CDN and US listed stocks and ETF's that you like that I can do some further research on. Do you like the medium to long term prospects for Lithium?
thanks

Q: Hello Peter,
I thought Electrovaya's numbers were decent and yet stock sold off. Was this sell on good news and do you think it has potential in energy space? I have small position on Xebec but was wondering to raise to full position as opposed to buying Greenlane for diversification? Also, any reason why Enwave is chugging higher as your previous comments were not that positive. What has changed? Finally, is it too late to enter Shopify? i am sort of glad to have held onto blackberry and finally got a bit of pay off today.. I am just wondering if Knight may do same in the future by surprising the market with good news (I know one cannot forecast but based on its history as a company it has not done much.). Thank you.

Q: I originally (this year) bought a 2% position in EFL knowing it was higher risk.
It has since doubled and now 4% of my holdings. I do have a high risk tolerance and like to hold on to "winners" and especially during positive momentum. Has EFL moved too far too fast and should I reduce back to 2% or continue to hold. My initial reaction is to hold to 6% and then reduce.
Thanks John

Q: HI Peter and 5i Team, I watched a segment on cbc news last night about Electrovaya and it all sounded like great technology, great timing for the energy storage market and Clean tech. What's the 5i perspective on EFL'S Business model and are they poised to start making a profit ? Do they have a mangement team that knows how to grow a company ? Thanks, Steve.

Q: Hello Peter,
I was expecting Fairfax, CRH medical, and Constellation to go up significantly after the earnings announcement. Fairfax dipped, CRH and CSU went up slightl. Any comments please? Do you think it is too late to enter Electrovaya at 3.40 or above? Also, do you think Knight (gud) is a type of stock you can buy and hold it for years given the credibility of the management team? Thanks very much.

Q: I just got off a wild ride with D BOX and am now looking for something not as wild. Things that show up on my watch list are CTH (Cynapus), EFL and PHI (Pacific). Could you please give me a brief opinion. On another note, I get notified of US stocks I have had where they want me to get involved in a class action suit. I did this with Synoforest and it took a massive amount of time and all kinds of information and after years I got less than 1% of what I lost. Is this common practice with these class action suits?

Q: I bought shares in EFL 5 days ago and it has since gone up by 92%. The surge seems to be due to a contract for a 200 million euro deal to provide residential energy storage (using its own lithium batteries) to a Europe provider over the next 3 yrs.

The stock has seen sharp pops and drops in the past (it was $8 back in 2001) but may be in for a prolonged growth phase. So my question is what kind of price target to give a stock like this. With other microcaps, I have generally taken my start out capital out once a stock doubles, but I am wondering whether that would be prudent in this case. Would it be better to use stop losses?

"Toronto, Ontario – June 15, 2016 – Electrovaya Inc. (TSX: EFL) today announced that it signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with a Global Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the delivery of battery modules for Residential Energy Storage with volume quantity deliveries starting early Q1 CY2017. Electrovaya will provide its battery modules with integrated cells and battery management systems (iBMS). Electrovaya's battery modules have unparalleled safety and cycle life performance which is the critical performance required by the OEM.
The demand for Electrovaya's battery modules by this OEM, is estimated to be up to Euro 199 million (Cdn $ 288 million or US $ 223 million) over a period of 3 years. High volume deliveries are scheduled to start in early Q1 CY2017 with smaller quantities with delivery in CY2016."
