Investment Q&A

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

Q: Please help me to understand that if 5I doesn t have any more intel on company management than that of the avg investor,what is the benifit of membership?
I, like so many others in this forum have been ambushed with the recent developments and incurred losses leaving me disillusioned
with 5 I research.
I really thought that with 5 i"s connections to the market they had more insight,(cxr hasn't been the only surprise)
Please understand I am not blaming 5i for this,it was my decision at the end of the day. I just don't see the benifits of renewing my membership.

Thank you for the education.

Q: I had purchased CXR, aware of some inherent risk, but comforted to some degree by an element of reassurance from analysts I respect - including those at 5i - and held on to cxr, to my huge detriment having lost a significant amount of $ on Friday. This is not a question, but rather an expression of gratitude in the midst of CXR's debacle for the much-appreciated alert you provided us; I sold on Friday to redeploy the funds into something I hope will turn out to be more generous. Thanks again. It's time to move on. Regards.

Q: Peter, I have weighting of 20% in Tech (which I want to keep) and it is split evenly between CSU, DSG, ESL and ZQQ. Right now there appears to be more interest in KXS and OTC vs. ESL or DSG. I have a 135% gain in ESL in my taxable account. What do professional do when faced with this? Sell a great company (ESL); pay taxes and buy a faster growing company that investors like at the current time, or keep the great company?
