Q: Hi 5i Guys,
What is your opinion on ALA's results and what do you think the outlook is for the stock going forward?
Would you suggest a Buy, Sell or Hold for the stock? What would you consider as "Danger Signals" that would suggest it may be time to exit the stock?
Thanks
Tom

Q: Hi 5i team,
To clarify your answer to James’ question today (May 1) regarding cannabis ETFs with some US holdings. In your answer, you mentioned MJ, HMMJ and HMUS. How about MJJ? Would your answer be different with MJJ being most suitable for James’ desire for cannibis ETF with more US exposure?

Q: If a Canadian stock listed on a Canadian exchange why did I just pay U.S. dollars for it ? The stock is FIH.U... It makes no sense to me to not trade in the currency of the country that both the company of origin and the stock is sold in. Are there other stocks like this ? I've never run into this before.

Q: Questor recently posted on their website a presentation to Altacorp in April. In the presentation they state that in the first quarter (Jan 1, 2019 -March 31. 2019) they shipped 39% of their rental fleet to a new customer in the Bakken. This would seem to be significant news yet no press release was issued. Are companies obliged to disclose material contracts or is that at their discretion?

Q: Hello 5i,

I only have enough cash for one position. Which of SU or GIL would you pick up first?

Or would you wait for the dust to settle. I will be purchasing both eventually once I dispose of other holdings.

In order of preference please.

Thanks,

KC
