Q: Hi !

I am looking for an industrial stock for my TFSA. Strong growth in a short period of time is the objective.

What do you think of Target Hospitality (th-q), Vertiv (vrt-n), Preformed Line (plpc-q), MDA Ltd (mda-t), Doman Bldg (DBM-t) ?

Any other suggestion ?

Gratefully yours,

JD IDS

Q: I hold a basket of small, speculative tech stocks, each with a small investment only in my TFSA. Those listed above are down significantly in value and I wonder whether any are worth continuing to hold? I would appreciate your views.

Q: Can you please comment on ECN's recent quarter which the market does not seem to like. Are you still positive on the name, and if so why and if not, why not. Finally, on a scale of 1-10, (10 being your top picks) for small cap Cnd growth names, where in the pack would ECN fall. They treated me very well for the first few years but have struggled after the special dividend and I am now worried that my expectation that they repeat their previous performance may be ill placed.

Thanks for the objective view

Scott

Q: Hi There, regarding ECN and your recent comments, so I take it you are willing to hang on for a few more quarters then? I know you’ve always spoken highly of Steve Hudson and his abilities. Also didn’t they give notice earlier this year about a “Special Review” or has this come and gone with no results?

Ok thanks!

Q: I have held WELL for 3 years and am down 38%. They are down 13% in one day today. Is there any rationale for their inability to sustain any positive momentum ?

I am starting to think there are better opportunities in a small cap area given the positive data we have been receiving re: inflation / interest rates.

If one were to throw in the towel on WELL do you have a few suggested replacements?

I am not a fan of dollar cost averaging on a stock heading down and currently feel I should cut and move to a better performing stock.

thanks

Q: I noticed where MEEC settled some of their litigation out of court, and still have one more to settle. At least this is information, that I have. My question is, I don't see any dollars and cents that they settled for, therefore are people buying this with the anticipation of a special dividend. Or will there be more income, because of this litigation.

Q: I am not concerned about the pullback in share prices today as I purchased this one just after the start of the pandemic. But........I invested in Shawcor with the thought that they did pipeline coatings and would be a valuable part of the continuing use of pipelines to transport oil and gas. They have decided to divest themselves of this volatile 25% of their business. Is their remaining 75% positioned to prosper into the future? Thank you Gordo

Q: Organized meme stock shorting ala GameStop on Well Health? Do you still believe it is not coordinated manipulation? Are there no protections on the TSX to prevent attacks such as this? If a stock is shorted naked, does that prevent it from showing up on the short reports? Do you have insight on how these groups are able to pull this off or at least why this stock is their go-to? Thanks!
