Q: Hey 5i,
Could you comment on the upcoming ipo of green for life? Do you know a date? Projected share price? They’ve been growing very quickly through acquisition, and some lucrative public contracts. Looking at how other waste companies have done in the past (waste connection, waste management inc.) it has potential to be a great “ground floor” opportunity. Thanks for your insight.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
RET. is going to buy back shares at a price significantly higher than current market. Please tell me all the reasons it would do this. Of course the obvious is that it for the moment increases value for loyal share holders who are seriously under water. However I wonder about the long term. Your thoughts please. Thanks!

Q: Hi, I am thinking about buying SLACK, set to DPO on the 20th, and I'd like to know your thoughts.
1) Do you think that the stable losses of around 140m is a concern after signicant rise in revenues over the last 2 years?
2) Is the DPO an advantage to me, or a disadvantage (versus and IPO)
3) I have no US exposure and I want some US tech exposure. Reasonable to take a full weighting in Slack?
4) Your thoughts on their growth rate? It appears they are a young company, and growth is exceptionally strong.

Q: How do companies decide on which exchange to list their company?

I see many questions on 5i specifically regarding Canadian companies listed only on the Canadian exchanges (eg. LSPD) sometimes both Canada and the US (like SHOP), or possibly only on the US market (LULU). And recently SDX going off to England, I believe.

Many of those questions relate to portfolio re-balancing thanks to PA.

So, all of this leads me to wonder what goes into deciding where to list a new company.

What would a “checklist” look like for making this decision? (Canada vs USA vs both).
As a general rule and given the size of the American market wouldn’t they be better off listing right from the get-go on the NASDAQ?

Thanks for the “lesson”.

Q: Hi .... There seems to be a lot of attention these days around new IPO's. One that caught our attention the other day is LUCKIN ..... China..... going up against the Gorilla known as SBUX. This is a 2 part question:
1. What are your thoughts regarding the appeal of Luckin as an IPO?
2. In order to be "allocated" shares on an IPO are there any specific guidelines or rules that apply? E.G how big an investment is required to have a chance of getting IPO shares or is this a investing/trading opportunity more limited to the BIG GUYS with deep pockets vs the average smaller retail investor.

Thanks for any insights you can provide here.
