Q: Hello 5i,
Last week i asked a question regarding broad market etf's and you mentionned vun. I failed to specify that i was looking for unhedged versions. My research shows two funds that seem to correspond to vun. They are: vfinx and vfiax. Am i right in that? And if so, i imagine the difference between the two funds is that vfiax is the same fund but needs ten thousand dollars initiat purchase. Am i right in this?
Thanks

Q: Hello team,
thank you for your all your investments answers and for the ones regarding Concordia Healthcare in particular.
Going forward it seems that unfortunately the sentiment towards Biotech stocks, Brexit, the similarities with Valeant, short attacks and other possible concerns with CXR is simply killing the share price and CXR has become a falling knife...
In addition technically speaking it just broke below 2016 lows... Do you still think its buyable now?
Thx again!

Q: Redknee recently had an upgrade and your guest wrote in about it and you said they had received a new contract. Also NMX (Lithium). A guest wrote in about it and you said they had done some sort of financing. They both dropped off considerably (Redknee a lot more). Did something go wrong with them recently? Another question is a lot of shares are A and B and in the case of tech you take the B shares and Andrew Pellier - you take the A. So sometimes it is an A and sometimes it is a B? Going to squeeze in one more. What does guidance mean in your context.
Thank you very much, Dennis

Q: I own 1,000 shares of Savanna Energy Services at a cost of $8.60. Would it be wise to purchase another 4,000 shares to reduce my cost base? I understand its Australian operations is doing well. What is 5i recommendation on the company? There appears to be no previous questions on this company.
Q: Lightbridge Corp (LTBR) is a US company I am following. It is in the development stage of nuclear fuel based on a uranium/thorium blend to increase the efficiency of existing nuclear reactors as well as decreasing byproducts. This is interim to the next generation reactors. It has several patents in play. I have not completed all my research on this company and have noted its share price steadily falling.
What I have done a lot of research on is the potential of nuclear energy particularly for China and India. When one is investigating a company such as this and the time frame of testing a prototype is in 2017 with plans 3 years out for full implementation, when along this path is a logical place to take a small position. Having asked this question though I am cautious and have more to learn about the company specifically.
Thanks
Lou

Q: I was wondering if you could elaborate on the concept of a "short attack". It does not specifically have to apply to Concordia. From past discussions, I know that individuals or companies that short a stock may then proceed to discredit the company through planted stories, innuendo and maybe even spread outright lies in order to create a lack of confidence and thus benefit as investors sell the stock, causing the share price to drop.
But is that the extent of the "attack"? Can short sellers manipulate the stock in other ways? People often ask what the short position of a stock is. Why is this important? Is it just to see how many other investors think they are wrong about the stock, meaning the psychological impact of a large short is what is at play here, or is there something else?
Appreciate yoru insight.
