Q: Hello Peter,
Wellness, Xebec Absorption, Jamieson Wellness, all had decent numbers recently with Wellness announcing an acquisition of Indivica which I thought would have been received well. Any comments as to why these stocks are not moving much understanding they have done well. Other high tech stocks surge on any announcements so am curious. Also, kirkland lake is heading lower where other gold stocks are moving higher. Thanks.

Q: Befuddled - that's me. Got a list of stocks I would like to add too or establish new positions in, both in Canada and US.
But do I do it now or just continue to hold off?
After the major market bottom, I thought there would be a technical correct......never happened
Then there was the FOMO...and I took a pass on making stock position buys.
Now, the markets are still moving up, and up.
Now what do I do?....like stay put and wait until after the second quarter results as the there is no end to the covid-19, just changes in phases, at least so far.
What is 5iR's suggested tactic, aka approach???
.........Keen to e-read your take.......Tom

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team

In our combined accounts, and looking at the Technology sector, I find that we have too much OTEX. Our other holdings in this sector are CSU, ENGH, KXS, and XIT. Please rank, in order of preference, where some OTEX can be sold, and one or more of the listed holdings could be purchased with the proceeds. I always value your timely advice.

Q: Hi 5i team, Alacer stock softened on the first day (May 11th) after the deal announcement with SSR. Since end of the day on Monday May 11th the stock is up approx. 25% in 5 trading days. In your opinion, is the market expecting a competing bid or is this bid up in the stock a recognition of the synergies that will occur with the merger?
Thanks
Rob

Q: I am starting a new portfolio, totally separate from my existing ones due to different ownership and would likely sell after 3 years. What sectors do you think will have the most positive movement in the next three years?

Q: When you last commented on HEO nearly six months ago, you were not overly enthusiastic. But there have been a number of developments over the last few weeks including the landing of 7 new contracts and a Covid 19 update indicating that the impact on their operations is relatively minor. It also seems to be picking up positive market momentum as is evident from the strong performance of its SP since the lows of March. With this in mind, I would appreciate your current assessment of the company. Many thanks.

Q: On May 13 you responded to a question regarding the probability/possibility
of bankruptcy/restructuring of Crescent Point Energy as a 6 on scale of 0-10.
I found that quite concerning. Do you still stand on that given the improvements in oil pricing and can you elaborate further? I am a long term SH and have lost significant funds to the downturn of CPG.

Q: I am concerned about Brookfield Asset Mgmt. It has been especially weak versus the recent market recovery. Do you think the company exposure to retail and office property has cast investor sentiment of this name in a negative way .I have owned the name for years and have been worried about its continued leadership in a post Covid environment
