Q: What would your opinion be for switching out of CGX for TSGI at this time? I have held CGX ,2% of Portfolio, for several years and with the decline of approx. 50% I am thinking of selling all and purchasing TSGI with the assumption TSGI could be considered Consumer Discretionary sector.

Q: Hi there,

I'm hoping I5 can convince me not to buy Hashchain Technology Inc.

Looking at the companies April 25th release it states that they were able to mine 27.92 bitcoin with 770 rigs in a 38 day period. With these metrics and a bitcoin price of say 12k, I calculate annual sales of just about 3 million. Then if i Increase the rigs to 9,870 which the company is expected to operate by the end of June, I calculate annual sales of just under 40 million.

With a current market cap in the 26 million range is this stock worth keeping an eye on? Does it have a chance at being profitable if cryptocurrencies manage to remain at current levels or even grind higher?

What attracts me to cryptocurrency mining is that the business model seems so simple...buying mining rigs and plugging them in... is there more to it then that?

Thanks,
Joel

Thanks.

Q: Whoa!!!

1. How bad is it and what does it mean re: audit and possible accounting violations?

2. Is anti-virus still relevant - isn't this free from others (Microsoft)? How much of SYMCs revenue comes from anti-virus?

Buying opportunity or does this reek of corruption and something much worse?
