Q: Hi 5i team. I'm looking to distribute some of my mj profits. Do you still like sis. It's had a pretty good run lately. Are there other companies you like more. I still have mj investments so something a little safer but still with growth potential. I'm still 10yrs from retirement so time isn't that important. Thanks.

Q: Does TOY make most of their sales during the Christmas period? I am doing well on TOY (thanks to 5i) and while I am a long-term investor, I am wondering if you might be able to prepare me as to what the stock might do post Christmas. Does the share price reflect TOY as a year-round entity or has it possibly been bid up by investors that are mainly betting on next quarter's results, after which they would dump the stock?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: I trade with CIBC and recently they reduced their settlement days from 3 to 2. In this case what would be this year's final stock sell day to qualify for tax loss selling? I assume it would mean December 28 for 2017. Am I right?

Thanks.

Q: If we are to believe that history is our best teacher, what in your opinion, were the major factors that contributed to the Dow Jones Sell off in Aug 2015 and Jan 2016? Was it mainly global financial events re Greece and China? What are the best tools to monitor the events that could lead to a similar correction? Thanks for your wisdom. Use as many credits as required, as I have 143 left. :)

Q: Hi Peter,

Yesterday's announcement by NeuLion that they have reached a deal with Fortress Investment Group to sell certain DivX assets has resulted in the stock jumping about 25% today. The scuttlebutt is that they are trimming down to focus on opportunities involving their OTT technology, and possibly to make the company more saleable to a bigger player. Any thoughts on this, and might it be a good time to buy?

Thanks very much, and Happy Holidays!

Brad

Q: What do you think of Micron Technology today after the results and the healthy bump in price? If you are positive on the company at current valuations would you buy in today or wait for the price to settle down? Would you prefer Micron or Nvidia at current levels on a risk/reward basis?

Q: You have mentioned ICHR a couple of times as your favorite small cap in the US. Can you give me a few reasons why you like it. Is it a good long term hold. What are some of the risks. I see the valuation to be pretty cheap but I see Micron is very cheap as well based on their earnings. What do you think?
