Do you still see both Topicus and Lumine Group as long term holds or should i just buy CSU and add more to my existing shares?

Q: Hi guys!

Thank you for your work.

If you had to describe the current market direction (up, down, sideways, don't know) how would you describe it?

Would you suggest 5 highish likelihood stocks ready for a bit of a rebound within the next few weeks/months?

Suggestion: We learn from our mistakes. Is there any chance you could have a page that notes all of 5i's misses (along with the explanation)?

I have been getting some bullish scuttlebutt on CIX. Would you give me your opinion on CIX's future...and likelihood it will get to $30?
