Q: Greetings 5i,

I like the changes to the website and the tutorial was very helpful and informative. Thanks!

My questions are regarding WEED and HIVE and when to take profits. I managed to get fairly lucky in the timing of my purchases of both companies and find I'm up 70% on Canopy Growth weighing in at 5.5% and up 35% weighing 0.5% with Hive Blockchain. What are your suggestions here?

Cheers!

Q: I have a half position in NWL, was waiting for results before adding the other half. They missed earnings and the stock is being punished today, down 25%. Do you think this is overdone and a good opportunity to add or is there something I'm missing and I should stay away? Greatly appreciate your service, thank you.

Q: Can you please comment on today's earnings release ? How does a blue chip, consumer staples company fall 25% in one day?
What is your outlook for the stock?
I hold a 2.5 % position (3.5% before today). I'm a patient investor. What do you suggest I do?
Thank you for your much appreciated advice.

Q: Both AQN and ENB hit this morning with ENB reaching a yield over 5%. Have no pipelines and a 4% position in utility { KWH.UN } Considering a 4% position in each of the above. Is adding AQN over weighting utilities speculatively ? What is the reason for ENB's pullback of 3% today and do you approve of a purchase at today's prices. If I were to only add one which would it be ? Cash position currently 23%.
Thank you

Q: Hi, I own both these companies, am now flat or slightly negative. Would you suggest
more patience, or time to move on to better opportunities? Any suggestions for replacements, they are both part of a full portfolio with the goal of dividend as well as capital appreciation. Thanks, Lavern

Q: You answered a question the other day about Cardinal Energy suggesting they were highly leveraged at 4x cash flow. Their presentation at $50 WTI and a .80c Cdn dollar, suggests they are just above 2x cash flow not 4X , that their POR is 40% regarding the dividend. Since 2014 and thru much lower oil prices they have kept that ratio between 31 to 49%, given the higher oil prices now it seems to be sustainable. WTI now exceeds their guidance as well as the CDN dollar at .77c they should be in fine shape on both counts. The company is looking at increasing amounts of free cash flow in 2018 given where WTI is today and the exchange rate, not to mention the WCS differential which is in their favour as well. Cardinal has one of the lowest decline rates in the industry so can spend less on maintaining or growing production as well. Those numbers you used look more like Bonterras- BNE then Cardinals. I don't understand where you are getting your numbers, please help me understand?

Q: Just a follow-up to John's question on KXS earlier today regarding the decrease in Professional Services Revenue. I'm under the impression this is a strategic initiative by the company and should in no way be construed as a negative.
Below is the press release from their 2nd quarter earnings release explaining the initiative.
"Second, our strategic partners are increasing their role in deploying new customer implementations, and gaining the related Professional Services revenue as a result. This positive trend has occurred earlier than we anticipated - which in turn has reduced our outlook for professional services revenue growth for 2017. While this has a short-term revenue impact – we are excited by the acceleration of partner contributions to our business. This also creates a stronger mix of subscription revenues in our business model."
