Investment Q&A

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

Q: I undertand that Irhythm Technologies, a US medical device/technology company, is far beyond the normal scope of your stock analysis. However it appears that the company is combining heart monitoring and analytics through a simple patch. This appears to be a significant development but...
I would appreciate your comments on the company if you venture into this sector of the market.
With gratitude for your assistance to retail investors.

Q: Hello, just want to ckeck with you if my calculations of the debt / cash flow ratio of Enb is exact? I obtain a ratio of 9.2 and here is how I get it using data from Tmx Money: Long term debt of 60.8 B / Net cash from continuing operations of 6.6 B = 9.2 ratio. If that is what you have, are we in dangerous territory? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Hi Peter and gang.
What do you think of ProMetic’s medical application and technology?

Secondly, does ProMetic have the financial strength to survive until they can turn a profit? I see analyst consensus is they won’t be profitable until 2020 / 2021.

Lastly, are there any 2018 red flags or developmental milestones we can be on the lookout for to monitor the viability of ProMetic as an investment?

Thanks.

Q: BANK OF MONTREAL 1.81% NON CUM 5YR RT RST CL B PFD SER 25
BMO.PR.Q:
Thank you for your response to my question on the above. Would you kindly clarify: in August 2021, does the issuer BMO simply roll the investor over into something like this without the explicit written consent of the investor? If the issuer gives you back your cash, does the issuer give you back the face value it originally sold at (in this case C$25) or does the issuer simply give you the current market value if the then value is much lower? This was issued at C$25 and trades much lower.
Thank you for clarification. I am lost on these rate-reset animals. (Also , would your office support please reinstate the facility whereby you used to send me an email that my question is answered? Thanks.

Q: In late January Tim Cook came to Toronto for his first ever visit to Canada as Apple CEO to advocate for a focus on coding education for children. He also sat in the lower bowl of the ACC, not a box, to watch the Leafs in a very low key appearance. As part of his trip I understand he also visited the Shopify offices. Why would such a high profile individual make such an under the radar stop at 'Canada's tech darling'? Is there anything to read into here? Your thoughts please.
