Q: Hello Peter & Team,

I have been watching ASG for some time as from what I read, I felt they had real potential with the innovative devices they invented for minimally-invasive surgery and regenerative medicine for relief of aging back issues. A big market to say the least.

I know they are small right which makes them risky and the medical sector is a very hard nut to crack but, they have seen shares increase in value 53% since Feb 6th and at one point today got to $1.04 before settling back at $0.78.

I read the Feb 9 2021 press release regarding their common shares now trading on the OTCQB Venture Market (the "OTCQB Venture"), a US trading platform that is operated by the OTC Markets Group in New York which will enable US-based investors to seamlessly get involved in Aurora. It appears to me this announcement directly corresponds with the recent gains. Am I naïve in thinking this was a big announcement? Or are my observations valid?

I did notice a 55% increase ($0.25 - $0.45) Dec 11th through Feb 5th which was before this announcement was made. And as of late, trading volume has gone through the roof - close to 338,000 shares with the average volume being just over 47,000.

Am I looking for what I want to see in order to convince myself to pull the trigger on a trade? Or are these facts indeed significant indicators there may be something here to be serious about? Would this be an indication there may be a take over bid being looked at?

If there are any other insights you feel may be valuable, would be greatly appreciated.

thanks for all you do

gm

Q: I have a 1/2 position in WELL and, as telemedicine is a fairly new field, I would prefer to take a 1/2 position in another company rather than a full position in WELL. I am considering either THNK, DOC or SHG. Which company are you the most comfortable with for a long term hold? Or would you suggest another company in the same field that you like better?

Q: In the healthcare sector I hold ABBV, BMY, MDT, AZN and CVS. Am looking to swap one out for a growth/value holding, perhaps in Industrials (maybe LMT?). Was thinking AZN would be my odd one out. Would appreciate your thoughts on best approach for long term buy and hold portfolio given the 5 holdings noted here. Thanks.
