I had a significant position with BXE. Of course with there ...I think you call it "reverse split"...I was almost wiped out.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide the names of 5 or 6 companies which you think have potential for good growth but are still in relatively early stages of development and are still pretty much unknown to the investment world. I am looking for companies with manageable levels of debt or no debt at all. Sector and market cap are not a factor. Thank you.

Q: Dear sirs,

Could you please comment on the trajectory of the share price, as the decline has been mostly unabated from it's high of $48. Is this a revaluation on the multiple ?

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Today analyst at Oppenheimer issues a report which commented a very bearish take on Amarin
Corp stock , arguing it will fall to 7.00 within 18 months due to higher cost in sale. This resulted a 15% drop at time of writing.

I am holding this stock for a few months , should I hold , sell or buy more?

What is your take? Are you still positive on this stock?

Thank you for your professional advice and assistance as always.

Q: In your answer yesterday to Michael regarding economy as a whole you said .... The keys are interest rates and earnings. Interest rates are now moving lower, and earnings growth should be decent next year, after slower growth (tax cut comparisons with 2018 and trade wars) in 2019. We would consider it fairly valued. There is a lot of money sloshing around, and the economy is good. There are also far fewer stocks than in past cycles, due to buybacks and merger activity. While a 5% to 10% correction would not surprise us, we are not overly worried about a 2008 market-type scenario.
While true I have been noticing more and more layoffs in the news lately and was wondering at what point this has an impact.
CN. 3000 laid off
Alberta Innovate lays off 125 of 650 employees
U of C 250 laid off
13000 predicted layoffs in the oilfield coming
200 lost jobs in Kelowna Tolko mill
More mills in BC closing

Q: I have some USD funds to invest. I would appreciate your best suggestions for 3-4 medium or large companies to keep for a long time (with or without dividends, sector not important).

Q: I understand there are tax benefits to donating stock (that has appreciated) to charity. Can you tell me, is the actual ownership of the stock transferred (which I assume means the charity would need a brokerage account) or can the brokerage sell the stock and send the proceeds to the charity? I'm considering a small charity, which likely does not have a brokerage account. Thanks.
