Q: What are your thoughts on Vecima for a long term hold. While the past year has been choppy, they should see some nice action in 2018 and 2019 as cable MSO's upgrade their systems and try to keep up with fibre optic etc.
Q: I have held Kelso for quite some time and have seen the ups and downs for this company. With the down turn in oil (railcar shipping) and delays in regulations for those railcars, do you think there are any catalysts in the near to get things going again for this company. I keep hearing about other products to try to diversify what they offer, but the stock seems to be stuck. I hold a small position and wonder if I should hold on for a little longer or move on. Your thoughts please.
Thanks
Q: Since your last perhaps somewhat tepid though tending towards positive comments on this stock (May) it has basically doubled and has just broken out of a consolidation pattern on strong volume. I read the release on the last quarter and was not impressed given the 'adjusted' this and thats and the explanation (if it was one)for the small revenue decline (but I am certainly not knowledgeable on such things). Obviously 'the street' liked it (up 8% today).
Given the above and your previous, could you please provide an update on your thoughts on this one.
Thanks as always.

I'm down 21% on Sylogist. I don't see any tailwinds for this stock, do you? I'm considering selling it to purchase Photon. Would this be a wise decision?
Q: The Russell 2000 has had a nice run up and now appears to be descending. I need US$ and would like to realize my profits in US$ while the Cdn$ is strong. As I have Loss carry forwards for tax purposes there will be no tax payable on this transaction. I would consider buying back in to IWO if you feel the Russell 2000 will reverse and start to rise again. What do you think at this time about investing in IWO? Mike
