Investment Q&A

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

Q: Aurinia appears to have increasing revenue now and the question is how fast does it ramp up to increase the share price, I believe they have the goods so if this is true considering market capitalization and potential where could we see the share price when looking at the analyst estimates? There easily could be a buy out of this company so the question is after what upcoming event(s) would be the best timing for this. If they go it alone what does your experience tell you and can you put percentages on a guesstimate? Do you have any relevant Bloomberg script numbers? Also, do you think the company is currently worth the risk at the $13.64 a share. Your help is appreciated.

Q: Endo Pharma tanked on Friday (down one-third) after announcing the hiring of a Restructuring Advisor. Do you think they will survive?
Of course, this revives the "will Knight ger Paladin" question.
I have always thought Endo would never sell to Knight because they would be embarrassed after paying so much for the company to Goodman and Co...
I guess it's now if ever...

Q: Hi, we have a small <1% holding in Well Health. Stock does not seem to gain traction over $7-$8 level, despite great news time to time, over past 2 years. I know, you have a lot of conviction in the company, based on the CEO's past record. Even the last news of their majority share holder and HK business tycoon, snapping company's shares @ $9.50, during a private placement. My question is that is the stock worth holding due to its growth potential ( despite not so impressive price movement ) and if so, do you believe, it could reach $9-$10 in next 1-2 years. Or, we should be patient, expecting a buyer, at some point in the future.

Thank You

Q: Watched a very interesting interview with an analyst on BNN yesterday making the case for therapeutics as the way forward for battling new Covid variants (as opposed to MRNA booster shots). Made interesting points and suggested a few stocks. Two are very small but SRNE is a reasonably sized Co. What does the book look like for this one?

TIA

Q: I've just started to look into GUD and I'm trying to understand why the shares have been trading down since 2017. From what I can see, earnings and revenue have been climbing, they've beaten EPS estimates the last 5 quarters, insiders are buying, the company is buying back shares, management has a good track record....what is the bull thesis or what am I missing?

Q: The genome space seems to have taken a hit and I'd like to add some to my portfolio. Can you give me 3 to 5 Canadian or US stocks going forward that you believe have the highest potential of gains( I realise this would also be subject to the most risk) for a 5 plus year hold.

Also 3 to 5 stocks from Canada or US that you feel should be held for long term exposure.

Thank you.

Q: I would like to double my Health sector % as recommended by Portfolio Analytics. I could also increase US portion of my portfolio but either Can or US is fine.
Current holdings and percentage of total portfolio are:
GUD (.75%), WELL (2.85%), ABBV (.81%)
Could increase existing holdings but have also been looking at US stocks CI and MED.
Your thoughts on approach and recommendations, including additions/deletions/other equities I have not mentioned would be appreciated. Dividend is not essential.
As always, many thanks.
