Q: I feel the pot stocks have entered a bubble not unlike the tech bubble in 2000.

I think there could be a lot of money made on the short side here. Can you please suggest 2 or 3 stocks
In this area that you think have the highest chance of going to or near zero one this bubble bursts. Both US and Canadian equities.

Thanks

Sheldon

Q: I own a significant number of shares weighted against my overall portfolio in GWO through an employer savings program and am perplexed as to why the stock never seems to gain any traction. With higher rates and an improving profit picture for the company I thought the shares would begin to move over the last year but the opposite has happened. What are the prospects for this stock in the next 3-5 years? Should I replace some of the shares with shares of another company or a few others? Thank you, Ian

Q: I bought shares in this company last week hoping for a good earnings announcement yesterday. The earnings were a little lower than expected and the stock is down roughly 8% from my average cost. I don't see that any questions have been asked about this company before and am interested in your thoughts. Is this one worth holding onto? Thank you as always.

Q: With precious metals, and most other metals at depressed levels, and with junior oil and gas out of favour, is it sensible to believe that only superior issues will find financing? Therefore Is now the time to buy flow through shares?

Q: Hello 5i Team
A general question on ETFs.
Have you come across a table correlating the Vanguard Canada ETF and the Vanguard US ETF.
Specifically, I cannot determine if VIU (Vanguard Canada ETF trading on TSX in C$) has an equivalent Vanguard US (trading on the NYSE in US$) ETF.
Expanding this question, have you seen a table correlating all companies (IShares, Vanguard etc.) Canadian ETFs against their US counterparts.
Thanks in advance for the great service.

Q: Hi there,

I've held Shopify for almost 2 years and have had great gains on it. I noticed in the last ~6 months or so, when people have asked about your favourite growth names, Shopify is not being mentioned as much. I believe it was often mentioned as one of your favourite growth ideas about 18 - 24 months ago. How would Shopify rank in your top growth ideas and what are your current top 8 growth ideas?

Thanks!
