Q: Qorvo stock was up 14% in the last month. They are expected to report earnings of $2.66 or year over year growth of 43% and sales up 22%. Expected earnings growth is forecast to increase 37% and revenue up 19%. Yet since January 20 the stock has retraced. Do you know why and what are the long term prospects for Qorvo.

Q: Hi team,

Saw this on Cision (and also Baron's) today re ....Flow Water Inc.
What is your take on this upcoming (potential) IPO?
Is this simply another case of a company taking advantage of the ESG IPO craze (as per Ryan's recent article) or does this company actually have merit and thus legs to succeed.
They seem to have a decent consumer following but is that following sustainable for multiple years or is it just a flashy trend?
From the Cision article..."We've demonstrated consistent quarter over quarter growth, grew revenue to approximately CAD $30 million in 2020, and are over 95% CAGR since 2018."
Those numbers caught my attention. I did read that they are not profitable yet.
Thoughts? Just a company to 'watch' for a few quarters post IPO?

Q: Watched the demo day session last night. Technology looks super cool especially the AI. Worth watching just the Gotham piece, like watching a Jason Bourne movie or Homeland

Q: After the huge run-up GME has been on I see its up another 123% as I write this....

How does this end for both the retailers buying and the shorts being squeezed?

Q: Is there something happening with this company it a shot up over 200% today.

Q: Morning TEAM 5i. After reading Ryan's piece, I find myself wondering when the next market pull-back will happen and just how deep it will be. I agree with his thesis that many of these 'bubble stocks' will pay the price of lacking real fundamental value. It reminded me that perhaps I should rebuild, for lack of a better term, the 'Core' part of my portfolio. I'm considering the companies indicated above and wondering if you also would consider them "Core Holdings'. (Core, being companies that are fundamentally sound, pay a bit of a dividend and should survive a sizeable correction in the market). Also, if you think I'm missing any companies I would appreciate it if you would suggest them. As always, I look forward to your much appreciated guidance.

Q: Hi folks, last reporting for Vivo was Q3/20 (end Sep 2020). Vivo held 5.3M shares in Skylight shg/v at .03sh, now valued app $1.50sh/share. Also held investment in Meta/v, that got bought out & converted into 4.5M shares of Hiti/c at .19, now valued app .70/share. Also held Friendly Stranger & since taken out & converted to Fire & Flower shares Faf/t. Question is..any way of finding out if Vivo still holds or sold, all or some of the three companies shares, etc???? Called the company but wouldn't confirm anything, and even upcoming Q4 results will only cover to end of Dec 2020. Is there any site/program, etc to be able to find out holdings/investments/dispositions that a company like Vivo has made...or as an investor, do you have to wait and only find out in Q reports. vivo has been a dog, but if they do in fact still hold investments in High Tide & Skylight...would help the bottom line as both stocks have been big winners in January 2021. Sorry for the convoluded Q, but as shareholder of Vivo...I thought I would/should be able to find out the investments of Vivo. Thanks for the help & info, jb Piedmont QC

Q: The German biopharmaceutical company Curevac, which trades on the Nasdaq,
plans a 5 million share sale. Is this a good sign? Your opinion.
Thank you.

Q: Can you profile the company and what is your opinion of its valuation and outlook? Thanks for your service!

Q: Looking through your responses on this company I do not see any reference to what appears to be POETs claim to fame - that is offers a unique integration of optical technology and existing chip production, nor any reference to a fairly long established participation, I assume in this technology. I like belt and braces; if the technology is valid and timely, which I assume it is given the focus of robotics today, and they have a moat by way of patents or other mechanisms, their prospects should be excellent, albeit absent revenues in the short term. Can you clarify these issues for me please.

Q: Other than Horizon's BetaPro ETFs, are there any other leveraged ETFs that trade on Canadian markets? I am looking for something similar to TNA / TZA, but trading in Canadian dollars.
