Q: PureCycle Technologies, Inc. (PCT) and Rekor Systems, Inc. (REKR)
I'm not sure if you've ever heard of either of these two companies listed on the NASDAQ. I'm always on the look-out for "moaty companies". Would you have any opinion on these two?

You can get Michael Taylor's view here between minutes 35:00 and 46:30........

Q: What is your opinion of CWL results and outlook. The fiscal Q2 results only reflect 2 months of recent acquisition but the "new" Caldwell has a revenue run rate of over $100M now against a market cap of $46 million despite the share price gains year-to-date. Do you think the company will garner more investor attention now to bring the market cap more in line with the revenue growth?

Q: Looks like the Dollarama boys are selling again. The insider selling is now a consistent theme, even the son Neil (President) participates each round. I understand they still own a lot of stock but this constant selling doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy feeling particularly when coupled with its anemic performance over the last 3 years. I've enjoyed holding thru the last 7 or 8 years but I'm now selling the same % they do each round and adding to my long term positions in COST and HD. Is 5i still positive on Dollarama?

Q: Would you have an opinion on the Global X FTSE Southeast Asia ETF? I already have VWO and would like to add more Emerging Markets, less some China - which seems to dominate VWO. I also do own ZID which gives me exposure to India.

Q: MELI seems to have lost its mojo and I'm looking a stock to complement my tech strong portfolio.

Do you think finances are a good recovery play? Do you like BAC as a finance play?

What sectors companies do you like?

2020 was good to me as i was all in tech.
Time to broaden my selection.
Thanks for all your support.

Q: I am interested in adding more international exposure. Over time, in a haphazard fashion I developed portfolio weights of 4% in ZEM, 2.5% in MAW150; and 1.5% in DXG. To my untrained eye they offer diversity, for growth & stability, to different markets, etc What is your view of these 3 holdings? Would you add to each? Delete any? Due to political risks from trade tensions etc, I am inclined to avoid too much of an exposure to China. Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: I have held CVS for approx. 6 months and virtually it is flat. There have been many recommendations from the street however I have 22,000.00 which seems to be dead money. Should I sell and buy some tech stock like Oracle or Taiwan semiconductor. Do you have a suggestion other than these 2?
Cheers, Doug

Q: Hi guys.

What are your thoughts on North West Company's earnings, today?
They beat earnings but announced the CEO is leaving. They also announced "earnings in 2021 will be meaningfully above pre-Pandemic (2019) levels but likely below 2020". I think this was already baked into the bake as consensus 2021 eps estimates is 20% lower than 2020.

Your insights are always appreciated.

John

Q: I have owned BBY for a few years now and it has done reasonably well. Curious on your long term view for the company and if you would continue to hold or switch to another name with a similar dividend. Currently have a position in Costco, HD, AMZN, PBH, ATD.B and MG for consumer names.

Thank you
