Q: I just received an email from Citron talking about SDGR. They feel it is the second coming of TSLA but of course, in a different industry.
They are a brand new IPO and are up 20% today, but would this be worth purchasing in the event that it pulls back to prior to the letter and held for a period of time.
In a nutshell they recap it thusly:

"Through use of artificial intelligence and a world class scientific team that is unmatched by ANY public company, Schrodinger has created a software platform that integrates predictive physics-based methods with machine learning to become the leader in molecular simulation that 1) reduces the average time and cost required to identify a drug development candidate and 2) increases the probability of drug discovery programs entering clinical development.

With the global pharma industry spending approximately $180 billion on R&D annually, this innovative software platform is completely disrupting the drug development process."

Would you invest in this concept yourselves, once you research more about it.? I know its not a p/e , value play it may or may not be TSLA of 10 years ago.

Thanks

Q: Do you have a view on this company. Many years ago in a previous job I dealt with them extensively but do not recall them pushing their public company status. My experince was they tended to regularly buy out rising competitors. Looking for analysis of the key metrics.

Q: Hello,

In B.C. and Alberta, Condo Stratas are having difficulty obtaining insurance or insurance premiums are increased substantially. This appears due in part to some insurers leaving B.C. and the value of the properties increasing over the last several years making replacement cost expensive.

Would the REITS that operate in Western Canada have similar issues? I’d be concerned with owning a REIT that runs rental apartments but can’t get insurance on the building.
Looking at particular at CAR.UN and REI.UN.

Thanks

Q: I'm meeting with my broker tomorrow. My results were over 20% last year. 2019 TSX return was 19%.
I'm still working full time so I find it difficult to manage my portfolio on my own.
I check all of his recommendations on 5i.
Mostly conservative dividend paying stocks. Buying on dips and trimming on rises.
Overall, I'm finding it hard to complain about what he's doing
What should I ask him when we meet tomorrow?
