Q: I am looking to increase my health exposure. I am looking at TDOC, DOC or VEEV and already have a full position in WELL. Do you prefer one over the other, all 3 or do you have another recommendation in this space?
Thanks for your service!

Q: I'm looking at the rebound in these tech and consumer discretionary stocks and wondering whether you have a preference for some of these companies over others. Could you please rank your favourites based on risk/reward to buy now, and would you recommend trading any to exchange for others? I have holdings in most.

Thanks for your thoughtful review.

Q: Hello,

I sold my shares in Alphabet a few months back (which I now regret!) and have some U.S. cash sitting in my RRSP account. I have purchased SBUX and MSFT but want to add some U.S. holdings. I am near retirement, however have a DB pension plan so I can tolerate average to above average risk. I would appreciate your suggestions.

Thank you!

Time to broaden my selection.

Q: I made the mistake of buying 200 shares of Ballard @$46.50 a couple of months ago just before it commenced its early-February fall from an all-time high. At the current price (~$30), I am tempted to double down with another 200 shares to bring my avg share price cost to ~$38, representing about 4% of my portfolio, a level with which I am comfortable. Am I nuts, or is BLDP poised to reward my faith and patience over the medium term (5 years)?

Thanks for your insights!

Q: For a stock price to double in 5 years requires an average gain of about 15% compounded, annually. Would you please rank these 12 stocks in order for the likelihood, in your opinion, they will double in price in the next 5 years. Roughly how many of these 12 would you expect to achieve that target? Assuming no major long term market melt down which would preclude good stock performance over this period. CTS, DCBO, DND, DOO, ECN, GOOS, GSY, KXS, MG, NVEI, PHO, TIXT.

Q: Hi the great team, in the past you have mentioned exceptional growth companies. My guess is that you are referring to revenue and eps growth. Please name 5 of such companies with less risk. Thanks.

Q: Is $60 M for three dispensaries in the Philadelphia area a good deal? What sort of revenue could TRUL generate from these dispensaries?

My ‘back of the envelope’ calculations:
o # of dispensaries at end of 2020: 75
o 11 added in the 4th quarter, so lets say ~64 dispensaries made full contributions for 2020 (I have not checked if there were earlier dispensary additions in 2020)
o 2020 total revenue was 521,533,000
o 521,533,000 / 64 = 8,148,953 average revenue / dispensary

So to pay $60M for 3 dispensaries seems a little rich.
I have no idea of the addressable market for these new dispensaries.

Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,
Would you add to an existing position in any of these ? I know you generally frown upon averaging down but if you would in what order ?
Thanks again

Q: Can I have your opinion of this plant base frozen food company please ?

There is a december investor presentation on their web site and they plan a pretty agressive expansion over the coming years.

This market (frozen food) is pretty crowded in my opinion and do you think they have a special product ? I know they are integrated vertically and have factories in Italy and California. Costco Wall Mart and Target are big clients for them.

Thanks !
