Q: Hello 5i,

Currently looking for additional US stock exposure and I am considering either FLGT or PERI as potential candidates. Sector allocation is not a factor.

Between these two companies which, in your opinion, has the best runway for growth over the next 5+years?

Thank you in advance,

Greg C.

Q: Hi team,

I currently have IWO as a core holding. I would like to change to a more concentrated ETF holding either in small or mid cap US. With so many different factors to choose from such as large/medium/small cap, dividend/value/growth/blend, current valuations, etc... and looking at past returns over various time periods, how does one choose the best ETF to invest in going forward now? I would consider all these ETF's to be high quality and obviously no one knows what the range of future returns will be. With small/mid cap underperforming lately vs large cap, would you place your bets on that spread closing over time? I'm comfortable with volatility and have a long term time horizon (+15yrs). How would you rank these going forward for best risk adjusted returns?

Thank you!

Q: Hi 5i
What to do with this one?...Stock is now at 0.45 .....
I have read your previous answers regarding this question , that it is better to simply move on... is this advice still valid? Will it have to undergo a reverse split to stay listed?


On the same note, TD Web broker indicates this stock is followed by 6 analysts ....all rate it as a buy with avg PT of around $3.40..... How is this possible and could you please comment on how these targets could actually be justified from an analysts perspective....any speculation on how they arrive at these numbers? I find the ratings quite puzzling.

thx

Q: Help me understand something about DND.

As per your write up in the Q&A's you were not impressed with DND's latest report.

The market was not impressed with DND's latest report (down appr. 30%)

Why ten would a 5 star analyst with CIBC, Sephanie Price with a 59% success rate ever rank DND a strong buy over the next year with her raising the target from $25 to $28?

You may not/ probably not know her but what do you think she knows that the rest of us don't? Just asking as she is such a well reputed analyst.

Thanks


Sheldon

Q: Peter and His Dream Team
In our new world of "Climate Change, Fossil Fuels and Nuclear" does this company have any relevancy? I bought it years ago thinking it had a future. Now I wonder if it is heading for a reverse-split or event Chapter 11...Your assessment and comments please. They are always valuable! Thank you!
