Q: Hello Peter & Team,

I have been watching ASG for some time as from what I read, I felt they had real potential with the innovative devices they invented for minimally-invasive surgery and regenerative medicine for relief of aging back issues. A big market to say the least.

I know they are small right which makes them risky and the medical sector is a very hard nut to crack but, they have seen shares increase in value 53% since Feb 6th and at one point today got to $1.04 before settling back at $0.78.

I read the Feb 9 2021 press release regarding their common shares now trading on the OTCQB Venture Market (the "OTCQB Venture"), a US trading platform that is operated by the OTC Markets Group in New York which will enable US-based investors to seamlessly get involved in Aurora. It appears to me this announcement directly corresponds with the recent gains. Am I naïve in thinking this was a big announcement? Or are my observations valid?

I did notice a 55% increase ($0.25 - $0.45) Dec 11th through Feb 5th which was before this announcement was made. And as of late, trading volume has gone through the roof - close to 338,000 shares with the average volume being just over 47,000.

Am I looking for what I want to see in order to convince myself to pull the trigger on a trade? Or are these facts indeed significant indicators there may be something here to be serious about? Would this be an indication there may be a take over bid being looked at?

If there are any other insights you feel may be valuable, would be greatly appreciated.

thanks for all you do

gm

Q: I sent this question in last weekend and haven’t had a response. I know you have been busy and it may still be answered yet. So in case it got buried somewhere I will send again.
I have bought the 3 companies recently based on the areas of the market they are in. The idea being that they are in popular fields that they could do well. I purchased a 1/3 position in each and hoping they would increase in value. They have and am now looking at adding to them about another 1/3 position. Should they increase another 10 to 20% I will probably repeat.I would like your expert opinion on each and whether this is a good strategy with each one? Or do you feel any one of them is a little too much risk? If you feel negative or positive on any please give me a brief summery on why.
Please take the appropriate amount of credits, cause I know there is more than one or two questions here.
Thanks for your advise. John

Q: MTLO Q3 just released. Microsoft DEM and the integration of GSX seems to be the future for this company. Legacy revenues are shrinking. Do you believe the growth rate for DEM (17% Q3 over Q2) is high enough to make a real difference? Their stated outlook says " will grow this 60% by year end 2022. In number terms that is
$1.85 mil + 60% growth = $2.9 mil (rev from DEM in Q4 2022) This seems like high growth but still relative. What is your take... are they really moving to a viable, profitable company?

Q: Score has completed their consolidation and is trading up today. In addition they have announced "Private Members Bill C-218 and Bill C-13, to legalize single event sports betting in Canada. Today, Private Members Bill C-218 was voted on and passed overwhelmingly at second reading in the House of Commons. Similar legislation in Bill C-13, which was previously introduced by the federal government, would legalize single event sports betting at the federal level in Canada and is anticipated to be taken up by the House of Commons in the near future." Am I correct in assuming that with shareholder acceptance of the share consolidation and todays announcement, the stock should continue to be well positioned for growth.
Thanks
John
