Q: It's clear that when one invests in small caps it's important to buy a basket to protect oneself from those that might not do well. Assuming one currently has no small caps in his portfolio, I wonder what that basket would look like. Taking into consideration all of the noise in our current market and prospects for the future, what six companies would you buy today to build that basket of small caps.

Q: Peter, loved the webinar! Great insights. What are your 5 best small cap ideas I can start researching? Risk and industry are not a consideration. Those you feel 10 years from now could be a winner.

Thanks again

Q: I searched the i5 questions history and found that the last question was close to 6 months ago. I looked at the latest numbers and like that the margin % has increased and their balance sheet looks good except a for a recent large increase in inventory. Am I wrong to think they are ramping up production for unannounced orders and that the stock looks good?

Q: Great webinar Peter. I was pleased to hear you reinforce the ‘basket’ approach in small cap investing. Not only does it make sense, it helps one sleep much better. Thanks again.

Q: Good morning,
I understand that Valens announced a deal yesterday where "underwriters have agreed to purchase, on a bought deal basis, 10,613,207 units of the company at a price of $2.65 per unit." The stock plunged 25% yesterday on the news to $2.16. I am sad to admit that I am ignorant to why this stock dropped so much on the news - any insights you can provide? Also, I bought this stock with a 5-10 year hold plan - still a good long-term company?

Q: Good morning ,
SWP reported a encouraging last Q 2021 yesterday, strong sales, with second line construction progressing well and on schedule to open in 2023. You dropped coverage of SWP in Nov.2020 but with progress on most fronts do you plan on restarting coverage ? Would this be the right time to re-enter the stock ?
Many thanks,
Jean

Q: Hi, Richards Packaging stock has been weak for several months and price decline has not abated, despite relatively decent results, recently. Could you assign the reasons for negative sentiment. Based on your last assessment, valuation seems to have come to down to a reasonable level, but stock does not show any traction. Is it worth holding for income - 2.75% dividend yield, or you see further downside risk (price) ? We are retired, with a large holding, about 6.5%, even after price deterioration, with an ACB of about $40. Thanks

Q: Hello, I am up 50% on this stock. Is there good mid to long term potential with this stock at this current price? I am also trying to reduce my portfolio volatility. For example, AW.UN is low volatility to me, whereas EGLX is high volatility. I would be happy to hold SCL if you think this stock has mid to long term potential and with volatility that leans towards AW.UN than EGLX. Thank you.
