Q: Hi Team
What are your feelings about these 2 stocks Qtrh has taken a beating the last week, all I can see is that the ceo has resigned or has been fired. I don't see this as such a negative, since the stock has not fared well. They always babble about a spin-off, but nothing happens
Cfx is also down, I know that they closed some plants, how does the future look?
Thanks

Q: Since CSU pays its dividend in USD, to avoid currency exchange fees I hold CSU on the US side as CNSWF. When it spun off Lumine, the new shares showed up in my US account as LMGIF with a BV of $.02
- the spin out is listed as a "dividend in kind", does that mean there is no tax due until I sell the lumine shares at which time all proceeds (since BV of $.02) are taxed as capital gains?
- I can not see LMGIF on any of my trading platforms. What is the difference between LMGIF and LMN?
- given that Lumine does not pay a US dividend is there any reason for me to continue to hold it on the US side?

Thanks
Scott

Q: Hi, it feels like general tune has changed on ECN. Based on previous questions regarding ECN, it was highly ranked by 5i and most recently as a top 3 small cap growth stock recommendation based on potential and valuation, and management per question raised on Mar 21st. After the latest earnings reporting on Mar 23rd, it has fallen 25% since. Are potential, management and valuation (25% cheaper than Mar 21st) no longer a recommendation to buy, but rather to only hold? Would like to understand the thought process behind this if this and if this is a short term momentum recommendation, rather than a long-term recommendation. As well, were general headwinds not expected on recession and higher interest rates? I understand that magnitude was more than expected but likely temporary? Thanks!

Q: TSXV has assigned this new stock the unfortunate ticker of LMN. Kindly assess the short, medium and long term prospects here. Day range 16.25-19 after half hour trading with decent volume.

Q: ECN down 17% so far today . After reading your answer to Bradley I have a couple of questions . What does " Finance originations fell 25% " mean ? And what do you attribute the miss in earnings to ? And what is the insider ownership numbers ? . Would you approve of an investor wetting their toes based on the review ?

Q: HITI reported 1st quarter revenue larger than it's market cap, and it's improving profitability with what appears to be a scalable retail model. They seem to have a membership-based business model in place that will bleed out the excess competition. Thoughts on buying a small position for a 1-2 year hold?
