Q: Hi Team, I have done some reading on Blockchain technology and sense that it is an area to invest in and although many people would agree with me everyone seems confused about where exactly to start an investment. Gambling companies handle a lot of money in every form, across a lot of venues so security must be a number one priority for them. It appears eXe has a contract to develop a process for online gambling payments using cryptocurrency to convert monies back to good old cash. Is this a stock to start an investment in or does the 5iR Team have any other cryptostocks they might recommend? Thanks, Chris

Q: Hi 5i: Why all the negative sentiment on Intrinsyc? Over the last several quarters revenues have grown quarter to quarter and Management has clearly stated that Q4 will have accelerated revenue growth. Based on what has been reported in 2017 and expected in Q4, revenues year-over-year should show good growth. Q3 was profitable and Q4 should be too. The Company has also said they have a record backlog which should bode well for 2018. I know the stock price has drifted but this could be an interesting entry point despite the Company's current market cap. Also the Company has a good cash position and no debt. What am I missing?

Q: My rich boss was told to invest in this stock at 23 cents and I bought some at 43 cents doubled my money and sold around 90 cents in a two month run because that's two weeks salary and I was happy. Now this thing is over 2 dollars with lots of volume when it went to venture exchange.do you see any reason for this new valuation.... I know they have increased testing areas to the states etc. What is your take on this company that makes no money and just increased 1000 % on little news.should I jump back in ??

Q: Hi there, one of the small cap blogs I follow has recently initiated a position on Novra Technologies (NVI) on the venture exchange. The blog's top ideas seems to perform well over time. I know names this small usually isn't on your radar, but what were your thoughts on this company? I am interested in putting a little bit of mad money to work in this name (About a 1.5% of my portfolio). Do you see any concerns with this approach? Thank you!

Q: All of my Spec Stocks, the ones listed above, each represent less than 1% of my cash Portfolio. With regard to your article discussing having stocks thta are less than 1% of portfolio weighting, I am thinking of selling 3 or 4 of these stocks and putting them all into one or two of the above stocks that show the best potential. I am down in all of them but to a lesser amount in GPS and CRH. Which, if any, would you say would be the keepers of the bunch?
Thanks
Kevin
