Q: What small to mid cap companies can you recommend that have been beaten up due to market conditions but have a high chance of success long term? Looking at a potential entry point this year with the prospect of beating out the returns of larger cap names that may be in a similar situation. Could you also give a brief thought on the risk/reward of this approach as well. Thanks very much.

Q: I have the above stocks in my TFSA and they are all down and smaller positions. I also have GSY, KXS, SHOP, TOI, ECN, SIS, SU, MEG and ENB in this 300K TFSA (thanks to SHOP and 5i). I am wondering about topping up 2-3 of the above down stocks or something new with this year's contribution. My usual approach has just been to top up the losers but this market has me struggling for ideas. Would you add to any of the losers above or do you have 2-3 new suggestions for me. Thanks.

Q: In the end of quarter conference call, the CEO referred to some exposure to Crypto as one of several economic factors which impact their business. He offered it had some impact but did not disclose details and none of the analysts asked for specifics. I am inclined to believe that Crypto has something to do with the new lows in the stock. Many macro uncertainties in Europe especially and exposure to a rising US$ are also important potential negatives. What do you think about the Crypto impact? I am inclined to think there is too much uncertainty to buy in - even given the stock is at an all time low. What do you think?
