Q: Hello 5I,
I am down 40% on multiple US Marijuana stocks. The ones that are taxable accounts I am considering selling and buying other stocks with potential to triple or more over the next 5 years plus. What would be your highest conviction picks to be able to accomplish these returns in US and Canada? Maybe 5 options for each? Thanks

Q: Many of the Pot companies have been sliding for several months now. Do you think they are getting near a bottom for this sector? I'm looking specifically at CRON, WEED, & MSOS. What is your feeling on these stocks? Do you have a favorite in this field?

thanks,

Paul

Q: Good day folks.
Reviewing the three portfolios, I see no representation from the "Pot" sector. Are you making a conscious decision to steer clear?
If you were to participate, which Companies would you be interested in, CAD and US? Is there an ETF that you would point me to to take out Company related risk?

Thanks for your help.

Q: With the new technology of lab grown THC and CBD
from Cronos. Will this give it a cost advantage going forward. I find this fascinating ,why grow the plant when you can go directly to the end product.
I take this process is similar to the fermentation of brewing beer.
I would think this technology could become very disruptive to the weed industry. What is your opinion on this tech. and does Cronos look good going forward? In other words is it a buy ?
Thanks
Cal

Q: Hi 5i Research Team:

I have traded Forex before and am new to stock trading. 90% of my RRSP, RESP and TFSA is in cash and I'd like to avail the current market conditions by "gradually" buying the dips.. and holding it over the long term, 5 to 10 years. I understand that no one can time the market or its bottom.

After exploring the reports and questions on your site, I have identified the enclosed 29 stocks based on following criteria:
- Current Retracements of > 75% over 52 week high & low
- Dividend Yield > 5% (in some cases, like WEED, which is a bit risky, I understand there's no dividend in the near term.. and I am simply going for the upside swing over the next 2 years... same for CRON and Air Canada)

Considering my 90% cash position and strategy to partially buy in on dips over the next few weeks, can you please advise if my stock selection is sound. In addition to my stock picks, please advise anything else that I should keep in mind.

Thanks for everything you do. Much appreciate.
