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

Q: Stan Wong on Market Call had EQRR as a top pick. I've been looking for an ETF like this. It looks like the MER is .35%. What do you think of this or do you have a different one that you could recommend for outperformance with rising interest rates? Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i
I currently hold no digital currency assets in my portfolio - from what I understand GLXY holds both bitcoin and etherium coins and provides financing to businesses in the digital currency space. Founder and small % shareholder speaks about growth in the sector and the bitocoin currency has bottomed. Your thoughts on buying todays' assets and the potential future for this business. Share price has been creamed ~ 40% and I am wondering if this is a starting point to start build a position and use GLXY as a diversified way to play the currency and growth in the industry via the merchant banking side of the business. Your wisdom (if there is such things when you roll the dice here) please ........ Thanks

Q: EHTH was a darling at one time within a loved sector. Others, for example GOCO and SLQT along with EHTH have been crushed. Head scratching when you look at Total Addressable Market(assuming monetization opportunity), Aging Demographics, Insider Buying, buy action by Starboard Hedge Fund etc... Yet these sectors are runaway elevators to the basement. When does the action make sense. Is this a long term play with future catalysts?

Q: I have quite a lot of financials, mostly Canadian banks and insurers with about 20% US. Would like to sell down some and buy something with some more growth in the payment section but still relatively conservative.
Would you recommend one of MA, V, Pypl or other financial as currently looks like a buying opportunity?
Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i Team - I am considering increasing my holdings in financials. Could you provide a couple of ideas in each of small cap, mid cap, and large cap companies, concentrating on Canadian companies but any U.S. suggestions are welcomed too. Thanks.

Q: I have been advised by BMO that this company is planning to have a Dutch Auction in the near future. The company is giving me 12 different options for selling some of my shares, with the last option(#99) being to do nothing. Can you advise why the company might be going this route to purchase back shares. Are there advantages for the company to go this route. And for the investor, why should he sell some of his shares this way. If there is some advantage to the investor, how do you decide which option to pick. Right now my preferred option is to do nothing, but would appreciate your advice on this matter. Many tnx for the great service.

Q: Two Questions:

1. BofA downgraded TIXT from a Buy to Underperform. Anything triggering this in particular?

2. TCS took a good hit today. Anything going on of concern other than market rolling out of growth?

Thanks, Carl

Q: Do you feel that CSE and NEO pose any kind of threat to TMX dominance both near term and more importantly long term? Increasingly I’m noticing more and more companies exclusively listed on either CSE or NEO especially ETFs. I ask because TMX seems to be range bound for quite some time now and was wondering if the growing presence of these new exchanges perhaps have investors concerned especially after the recent takeover of NEO by a larger American company with significant financial resources.
