Q: I understand you don't normally follow this company(trades on London Stock Exch.). I have been a long time share holder and am starting to wonder whether I want to continue with it or seek better alternatives. It has been quite flat for some time now and has done some questionable stock 'schemes' and share capital consolidations in the past. I would greatly appreciate any input and thoughts you may have on this company, if any. Many thanks to the 5I team for all their great work!

Q: Can't stop, won't stop. Like 5i, I like momentum.

Thanks for the recommendation a while back. I'm approaching a double and position size is still reasonable at 3.5%. Is a top up to ~4-5% reasonable given the momentum and outlook or do you think it remains a bit too risky to increase position size? Note that I stop buying a position at 5% and let them run to 7-10% before trimming, so topping up to 5% would put ECN as my third largest holding after CSU and GSY.

Q: MCAN (MKP) is a mortgage company that I hold. It seems to be a good income stock. It is raising more capital that I interpret as positive. Is this to hedge against the "expected" rising interest rates? If rates go up how will this affect their business? My holding is 3%, I am thinking of bring this up a bit based on their positive moves to increase capital. Am I reading this wrong?

Thanks,
Doug
