Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,

Just joined your group and so far I am liking the website and the sections. I like to invest in small to mid cap companies (currently have bbi and pmn in my portfolio). Looking to add 2-3 more over the next few weeks. Any suggestions that I can have so I look into their company? I do like PTE a bit since it dropped so much.

Q: Looking at adding a position in COV but it has really run up since your initial recommendation. Do you place price targets on your positions? If not, does this stock have a lot of room to run if added at current levels?

Thanks.

Q: I own the above noted stocks relating to healthcare at roughly 1% weighting each. I am fine with hanging onto GUD and waiting but I was wondering if the other two are worth hanging onto or if I should move onto something else in the sector.
When adding more (approximately 5 to 10% of overall portfolio) to this sector would you recommend an etf or specific stocks?
Any recommendations (Canada, US or Int'l) would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Brian

Q: Hi, Although these are not comparable companies, I'm looking to invest in one for my TFSA and would like information on which has the most growth potential in terms of share appreciation.
Thanks

Q: I have cash in my TFSA that I would like to use for a new half-position in a growth micro-small cap stock. I already own GSY and PHO in that category. Could you recommend 1 or 2 stocks that would be a buy at the moment?

Q: Any specific news to explain a 13% jump in Covalon Technologies on Thursday?

Q: Thank you for your kind answer to my earlier question suggesting PTE,AVO and GSY.
Any sub 5 dollar stocks, other than ECN/GUD? I bought ECN, again reading your Q&A section! GUD is above 5 bucks but bought it anyway as it was your top tax loss selling candidate.
Thanks in advance.

Q: Which company would you choose GUD or COV for a hold period of 5 years?

Q: I have been watching COV.I am reluctant to buy as trading is very light with only 60 shares traded this morning.With a market cap <$100 million, would you recommend a full positon? Is insider ownership high? Your views are appreciated.
Happy New Year.

Q: Hi Peter,
Any idea why Covalon is not trading today based on yahoo and google stock listings? Also, is there a specific reason for Canopy to be surging so high today as I have not seen any new news release to account for such a spike? Thanks and again appreciate the input.

Q: In your view, which of these should be added currently COV, AVO & CLS? Or all? Any other best pick from your current portfolios? Own KXS, SIS, PHO, NFI,

Q: Hello Peter,
Any idea why Andrew Peller has surged in the last month. Everyday it goes up a little amounting to a sizable increase over a month? Also, can you see a case for a company like Andrew Peller to form joint ventures with Cannibis companies to create a wine/cannibis combination? Covalon Technologies has done well this year but I would have thought with their recent numbers, I would have expected the surge in price to continue. Also, when some companies beat the numbers, they barely move while others take off. Is this because the market thinks the former is not a true growth story and with with time if the company continues to do well, the market finally realizes the story . Finally, i just wanted to add that your service in terms of information and timely responses is truly appreciated and sincere wishes for the holiday season. Many many thanks.

Q: today announced 187.5k options vested for 3yrs & exercisable over 5yr period at $4.65 per..Price closed today @ $4.80.This gives a bad indication of price in 3yrs time or co.is giving away the shares without hard work.Your take please.Thanks for u usual great services & views.

Q: COV--Spiked after great Q on Dec 18,but today pared gain.Confused.It is a point to add to my 1% holding(p/p $4.55) GUD is having a nice run from recent bottom.On Dec 18 announced that 60P has submitted a new drug to US FDA for approval.Is this material.Any idea when Goodman will strike a big deal?.Is this a goodtime to average down on my $10.16 p/p. Thanks for u usual great services & views. Merry X'mas & All the Best for the N.Y.Continue to provide great picks

Q: i thought the covalon earnings were amazing.
and their plans going forward also excellent.
your opinion. dave

Q: Not a stock specific question but more of a learning question. Have done well with PEO and COV but the volume of shares traded is very low. I can see these 2 companies continue to be successful and I was wondering at they grow and more investors want to get into the shares what are the options the company have to increase the liquidity of shares and are the options usually beneficial to existing shareholders?

Thanks

Q: Hi there, I noticed a recent answer where you recommended COV and GUD for a growth and balanced healthcare name. I know it may be best to split a position in two and own both names, but if you had to buy just one which would it be - for short term (1-2 years) or long term (5-10 years)? Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter,

I've been watching this closely since it was first recommended. It's now back to the low $4's and is looking quite attractive.

Before I pull the trigger and jump in, can you remind me of the positive attributes and potential long term earnings potential? If you were to give me a best 3-5 year price target 'guesstimate' assuming things work out with the company, what might that look like?

Q: Good evening,
I have managed to escape ggi.v before the carnage began. I have a hefty gain in my tax free account and I'm looking for 4 or 5 somewhat risky picks that could provide some real torque. Fitting this profile would you be able to provide any suggestions for me? I currently own gud and pho in my tea.
Cheers

Q: Hello 5i team,

I want to buy Covalon in my TFSA. Would you suggest buying now or waiting for a possible pullback. It has had a big runup lately.
Thanks
