Q: Hi Team,

Hoping you can provide some context to the recently announced contract win for Acuity Ads for $750K, representing 1% of its market cap. Is it significant? Blah? Is the customer of any strategic importance? General thoughts on the company moving forward... Thanks!

Q: Tourmaline has been in a bit of a freefall lately. Should i consider tax loss selling the stock? What companies should i consider in the switch? I have a very low % of oil and gas stocks in my portfolio no counting enbridge and transcanada.

Also a firm expressed that DAP-U is good value selling at a reasonable price; do you agree?

Q: I am 73 and all our investments are in RRIFs.
You have recommended this in the past and I own some shares which are 8% below purchase price.
Earnings are due on 31 October. I like the dividend this company offers.

Do you have any words of wisdom? I am not necessarily wanting to sell, unless it is likely to just keep on drifting lower. One of the reasons I bought this stock was because it seemed to be in a sector all of its own. Which sector would you place it in?

Q: I recently ignored my logic in staying away from "new" listings and invested in IBAT. In essence, I went with my gut based on my research and more than doubled my investment within a few days.

IBAT acquired technology in extracting lithium from brine, effectively reducing the process time from 24 months to 24 hours. No earnings ... It was previously operated as Rheingold. Has this been on your radar? Perhaps I should consider myself fortunate and bank my gains or hold on. May I have your opinion? Thank you.

Q: Patriot One has just issued some warrants. I have never purchased warrants, but have a general understanding of how they work. I can buy them easily enough from my online broker. Are they just as easy to sell (considering there is enough volume)? I'm just not sure on the exit strategy. Thanks. Really enjoy the questions asked, and responses received.
