Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi Peter,

SIS has grown to about 9% of my portfolio from an initial 6% and wondering if you think there's any more upside? My full positions are 5-7% so wondering if I should continue to hold or trim my position?

On the other hand GUD is down 20% and wondering if I should add more here or start a new position in CLS (I'm low on tech) if I do trim SIS. All of these are/will be in my TFSA.

Also, wondering about ECN, what will it take for it to break out above $4? It seems to be stuck below $4 for a long time now. I hold this in my RRSP.

Thanks for your advice as always.

Q: They announced the hiring of a new president recently. The article mentioned that the new hire had a background in growing the cloud business at his previous company. Was this hiring part of an orderly transition at the company and does his background suggest a new direction for the company or just a good fit for what has always been going on there? Can we expect a little "spark" to this company now?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: As a follow up to my question on Big Wind Capital, my understanding is that it’s halted right now as it has a DA to acquire 49% of Hill Top Security.

It will come back on the exchange with a US listing as well, new name, Hill Top Cybersecurity Inc.

The symbol already on their new web site, is CYBX.

They will provide a US Government patented blockchain cybersecurity to all Bitcoin transactions worldwide.

In addition they will have a ICO of a new Bitcoin called Minecoin. It will be a medium to allow metals and mining companies to negotiate their transactions safely and securely and eliminate the middleman.

Is my information correct and again, what are your thoughts please.

Thanks!
