Q: FYI. 2 articles in The Van Sun on RAY.A. E Boyko,its ceo has a vision to become the biggest music streaming co. in the world.He has 2 main policy concerns.Our government should have a policy of buying local.He dislikes Finance Minister's plan to tax stock options more heavily,even thogh the government indicated that fast growing cos like RAY.A will be exempt. 2nd article states that Bombardier & SNC are being replaced in the public's consciousness by digital economy outfits such as RAY.A, LSPD & Stradigi AI,all of which talk about becoming world leaders,but without the sort of heavy government support received by older champions of Quebec Inc. RAY.A has risen $1.09 since Aug 6 Q results.

Q: I hold the above in my TFSA. I treat my TFSA as part of a total portfolio so although each is about 20% of my TFSA, my overall weight for each is 3% in my total portfolio. Needless to say my TFSA has not performed well this year. Each of these companies (Except for ZQQ) seems to have lost significant value this past year. 5i seems to still like these names but I am starting to think that they are going the same path as some previous darlings of 5i. So my question is: with a 5 year outlook, should I continue to be patient or sell any of these and move on.
By the way, I did ask a question last week and voiced my opinion on some comments....never got a reply??

Q: As I start my 6th 16-year-old grandchild off on his investing journey with $500, I am writing to ak if you have a suggestion for a growth stock to complement half of the total invested in conservative BCE. He is hoping - at very long odds - to match his older (now 18 with an account in his own name) brother who chose SHOP to go along with BCE. I know this is a tough challenge, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob.

Q: I bought MFI for a variety of shorter term and medium term reasons including African swine flu in China and Asia affecting the price of pork and their aggressive move into plant protein seemingly still at an opportune time overall. The recent earnings seem to confirm not only this, but very good news overall for an otherwise steady eddy type business. Long intro I know, but how do you see earnings and the outlook overall for a longer term hold? Thank-you.

Q: Hi,

Quick thoughts on these companies. I'm doing some clean up and these positions are under 1% in my portfolio. Which ones would you continue to hold, add to or just sell? Can you please rank. I have a diversified portfolio. Thanks!
