Q: Hello 5i Team. My understanding is that there are 2 significant issues here. US tariffs, and recent miss on performance. I've just recently started managing my own rsp, I'm finding mg to be the toughest decision I've had to make so far. I read that the stock could drop by as much as 30% if the tariffs go through. I've read mostly positive feedback from 5i on MG. Can you help quantify the risk over the next 2 months to a year?
Thanks

Q: I had just recently bought this company in my TFSA prior to the 2nd quarter earnings report, and the stock has dropped over 25% since my initial purchase. It would seem that 5i still likes the company do you consider the market reaction overblown, would you consider averaging down with this company or would you hold the position for the longer term.
Thanks Tom

Q: With regards to Covalon and their contract with Saudi Arabia. They have stated that the current diplomatic squabble does not effect their business. Are you aware of any terms of the contract and/or delivery of product or payment schedule that has or is scheduled to happen? I'm just trying to determine if despite the rhetoric it's not effecting or delaying the terms of the contract.

Q: I like the idea of New Look Vision rolling up prescription eye glass companies. I just spent a lot for a little bit of plastic in front of my eyes. I'm not sure why BCI does not perform better. Are there a lot of intangibles in their balance sheet. My real question is whether hearing aids are part of their business. If not is there a similar company that specializes in hear aid companies?

Q: Hi 5I,
If I'm not mistaken the US is slowly opening up to online gambling which clearly will benefit TSGI . My question is more related to the psychology around how fast or slow these markets are opening up. After all Vegas and all the casino operators exist so gambling itself is not a problem. How does it differ being an online industry ? I never could work this bit out.
Thanks
