Q: Hi
I'm a bit confused over how to assess growth companies on a valuation basis. I understand you can use a PEG ratio to factor in future growth, but a lot of the growth companies out there have PEG ratios that are far above one. How then would I know whether a company is "undervalued"? Would you compare to peers in the same sector or compare to historical values? Is there a PEG ratio that you have in mind above which you would never invest?
Thanks!

Q: Can I get your current marijuana picks (one larger cap, one mid cap, and one smaller cap), with the criteria being eps growth, revenue growth, and balance sheet strength?

I started doing a little work on Organigram and unless I am mistaken, it looks like it has a forward p/e of 40 (eps numbers obtained from Thompson Reuters), low debt and a relatively small number of shares compared to its peers. These numbers dont look too shabby to me, against the backdrop of its higher valuation peers. Is there anything specifically in OGI's profile that could pose challenges in the future?

Thanks.

John

Q: I'm currently invested in (and seem to be treading water on) SCHW. Given your confidence in GC, I'm wondering if a switch might be prudent? One concern is that I already own TSGI (Thank you!) and I am wondering if this would be a bit redundant?

Q: Please give me your thoughts re Diageo interest in pot stocks. I have done very well on Canopy and currently over 400% increase, however I feel price is too high to buy more. I want to get some more exposure to pot market and am considering Aphria and Aurora. I note that Aurora has more than double the market cap of Aphria and I have heard that Aurora has through many stock only aquisitions is quite highly leveraged, and Aphria with the CEO having a Jameson background is more suited to medical side. Would you suggest buying a smaller position in both or select one? Thanks for your unbiased knowledge.
Cheers,Doug

Q: Hi team,
I know this is a difficult, and perhaps speculative question; but what would be your top couple picks today for a growth stock that is capable and in your view, likely, to replicate the long term stellar performance of a stock such as CSU? I am looking for a long term, steady eddy growth that is capable of over years, producing that (000's of % return that CSU for example has done. Would you consider KXS a junior CSU? Or perhaps something such as pho? Give me your best, educated couple picks. Thanks,
Shane
