Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi Peter:
Would appreciate your thoughts on Kraken Sonar, small cap company with interesting technology. The made a small profit in Q3 but their history is more of an R&D business. Do you see greater revenue growth in the coming quarters with their product lines?
Thanks for your great service, have found your site to be very helpful in earning above market returns.
Regards
Victor

Q: I have sent Avigilon's Investor relations an inquiry about this, but, in general, wouldn't there be a shareholder's vote on the takeover? I don't usually stick around for these things (I take my profits and run!) but in this case I don't like the offer very much and would definitely vote against it. The only mitigating factor now however is the announcement that the CEO is retiring. Do you think this news is material to the possibility of another offer?

Thank-you.

Q: I am curious in your experience in the past with similar corrections 10% or more. What are the companies that benefit from the eventual recovery? Is it the companies hit hardest in the correction that rebound or the companies that weather the storm and continue to outperform?

Q: hey Peter & Team,

From what I can see results on the recent report were mixed but overall the year wasn't horrible. Yet, the stock is down over 50% since June, 2017 including the big hit today.

Would you mind commenting on the recent report and letting me know what am I missing here?

Thanks for all you do

Gord

Q: I am rebalancing 5% of USD portfolio with objective of reducing overall Beta to face an increasing volatility patch.
My Question is on IGHG, that has performed well in the current environment. In a well balanced growth tilted portfolio , would you see any objection in increasing this position from 5% to 10%? I realize that trading volumes are sub-optimal. But I like the protection given to rate increase with zero duration in an otherwise benign credit risk environment, especially with ongoing strong growth in US and no sign of yield curve inversion on horizon. It also seem to give me an even safer hedging strategy to rising rates than with TBF, for which your comments were really appreciated.
