Q: Hello: I wonder if you could tell me the number of shares held for each of the securities in the Balanced Equity Model Portfolio as of today. I would like to set up my own version of the BEP in Yahoo, and without number of shares, I won't be able to monitor anything. I like to compare my portfolio with the BEP so that, for example, if my portfolio takes a sudden dip but the BEP also does, it gives me a little bit of relief. Not exactly "schadenfreude," but I don't worry too much because I feel I'm in good company. Take as many question credits as is appropriate. Thank you

What do you think of the news of collaboration of WEED with three other international producers? Good enough news to buy into? Market seems confused with news.

Q: 5I Team,

Can I please get your thoughts on Future Farm Technologies Inc. (CSE: FFT). The line of business seems quite interesting and timely to me, however I really don't get the augmented reality marketing angle.

Thanks
