Q: Good day gentlemen,
Can i get your thoughts on the latest news?
I am trying to decipher what multiple will be attributable to this company. And what a reasonable profit expectation would be if they sold their product within the 8-10$ per gram that has been discussed.
My math:
22,150kg @ 9$ per gram = 200million revenu
Do you have an estimate of potential profit, if this was to come to fruition? And do you have a multiple that can be attributable to this industry? Best estimate of a stock price.
Thx I know this is extremely difficult given the many variables. I would appreciate your best estimate.
Thx again!

Q: I own about 16% utilities - all have been falling quite a bit recently. Based on my limited knowledge of technicals, it seems that they are all at their support levels (except TRP which appears to be below that level). Is it time to buy into these utility stocks based on technicals, or does it seem that they are going to fall some more based on interest rate hike fears, so it would be best to lighten up on utilities? or just do nothing?

Q: Understanding the US isn't your focus, do you have any insight into this stock? They appear to be a going concern with a short term issue that the shorts ganged up on looking for a quick buck. I bought some at about 50 dollars and am tempted to buy more knowing that next earnings may still show some effects, BUT that 2017 numbers will still be handily better than 2016, and 2018 looks good. Thoughts?

Q: I read that cHR may be expanding their reach. Do you have a perspective on whether the possible expansion of CHR flights could potentially affect the business model for EIF? Could you compare the two companies now as to risk and BUY, HOLD or SELL?
Thank you kindly in advance for your help with this.

Q: I am contemplating selling some or all of my position( $17k, 8% weight in my RSP) In XBB in hopes of climbing the ladder a bit in yield & the possibility of some growth, while keeping the risk factor somewhat the same or perhaps a tad higher. My RSP is reasonably well diversified. Could you recommend a couple of ideas, or just stay put?
Thanks,
Ted

Q: Hi,

This company looks interesting to me, mostly from a product/philosophy perspective...I haven't yet looked into financials.

None of your previous responses to questions on this company made any mention of management's (or the board's) ability/experience. Can you provide your insight please. Do you know any of them? What sort of previous experience do they have? Have the run public companies before?

Thanks,

Cam.

Q: Hi, I keep reading (Bill Gross and others) that bond yields have breached long term resistance levels and that we are entering a bear market in bonds. Meantime utilities and interest rate sensitive stocks are being hammered. Could you provide your view how much interest rates might rise further from here and to what extent utility stocks and others are discounting future rate hikes. Is this a potentially good buying opportunity? Thanks!
