Q: Hello
I have 3 x 5i recommendations I should probably move on from AQN (- 68%),
EGLX (- 98%) and ILLM (-81%).

With the remaining combined funds I would need a 350% to recoup the loss back to even - assuming a 5yr min hold what would be 5is thoughts be for sector and position choice to reallocate ? I d prefer these be positions your moderators in fact own.

Q: Question, analysts -- this comes out of a little frustration. I trade on TD Waterhouse and today wasn't able to get this questioned answered by TD. Analyst Scott Buck of H.C. Wainwright has just changed his potential price for EGLX to $1.36. Prior he had this crazy speculative stock at a huge multiple. TD Waterhouse ranks him in the top of the class on todays main trading page for this pick. He as well has MOGO @ $10.86, while it trades at $1.88 Buck apparently has an average net return on his analysist picks of -10%. For an average investor, how the heck is Buck visible and relevant?!? Why would a company like TD give him a high rating & such great exposure?

Q: Hi 5i
What to do with this one?...Stock is now at 0.45 .....
I have read your previous answers regarding this question , that it is better to simply move on... is this advice still valid? Will it have to undergo a reverse split to stay listed?


On the same note, TD Web broker indicates this stock is followed by 6 analysts ....all rate it as a buy with avg PT of around $3.40..... How is this possible and could you please comment on how these targets could actually be justified from an analysts perspective....any speculation on how they arrive at these numbers? I find the ratings quite puzzling.

thx

Q: WELL ( even) , EIF (up), EGLX (ouch ), are my only TFSA holdings and are in equal amounts.

Would you give 3 of your best picks of Canadian small caps ( other than the above ) with reasons why. I can handle risk.
Thanks. Derek

Q: Hi Peter/Ryan, I've been holding EGLX in my RRSP account since you added it to your portfolio. My average cost is 3.92 for 2000 shares so what could be a good strategy for shareholders. Would you hold and wait for the recovery or sell and buy it back after the month. Is there any one strategy better than the other, hoping of course and thinking there is a future for the company and you wanted to hold it for the long term. Thanks

Q: I’m significantly underwater on these stocks. Can you please advise which ones you’d hold, and which ones you’d sell? Can you please also give 5 growth stocks in Canada and 5 in the US that you are high on right now in place of the above?

Q: Can you name your top 3 small cap growth Canadian stocks that, suddenly, are now looking very attractive and provide the main catalyst for recommending each. Also, name 3 growth stocks that were recommended as being attractive but no longer make the list and why.
