Q: Please comment on the marijuana sector meltdown. Any idea what turned the green momentum into a bloodbath today? Is the speculative money that the fueled the rally all exiting en masse?

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Here is an impossible question for you because I know your opinion on these individual stocks is negative at best. If you had your feet to the fire and had to chose one for the long term...what would it be and why?
Thanks for your excellent insights and attentive service...

Q: According to an article in the Globe, HBC has real estate assets estimated at $30/share. Would this satisfy the value investor thought on buying something for $0.50 that is worth $1.00?
