Investment Q&A

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

Q: On Oct 1, Beam Therapeutics announced an equity offering priced at $23.50/share; over the following days, the share price declined to as low as $22.24, i.e., below the offering price, though not as low as would reflect the dilutive effect of the new shares.

Yet today shares traded as high as $34.38; what, if anything, can we infer from this disconnect? Who would pay so much when new shares can be had at 2/3 the price?

Q: hi folks, 1st Q on CB2 Insite, cbii/c....stock has been on fire lately as looks to roll out/expand US telemed operations but in cannabis field. Did finance at .15 couple of weeks ago, and bought some Texas operations to expand operations to 100+k medicinal patients. Stock has run into the .30's on big volume. Very small company but would appreciate your views/opinion. Is is similar to Well/t??. Thanks as always, jb Piedmont QC

Q: Hi 5i,
I'm not happy about the performance of GSK, what do you think about the performance going forward, also what else could you recommend for international exposure. Currently own Merk and Pfizer.
Thanks!

Q: There is one thing I don't understand. GUD bought Biotoscana one year ago I believe for almost $200M. The stock ran up 20% on that announcement to nearly $9 and now it is $5.50's. The thing I do not understand is didn't that acquisition do anything for the top or bottom line and hence give a positive light on the stock? You have said the last few months that investors are bored and waiting for an acquisition.
Isn't Biotoscana the acquisition? Thanks

Q: As this stock has run up, I've gradually trimmed half of my position, thinking it's a Venture stock, which has meant that I kept it to 4% of my RRSP. Now they are listing on NASDAQ, but I'm thinking to sell more and go into WELL, realizing that while they are both in healthcare space, they are still very different stocks.
Which is more likely to position me for future growth?
