Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I’m selling Appian (APPN) and Fulgent Genetics (FLGT) for a tax loss and am wondering what suitable proxies would be. Or would you recommend just selling, and buying something more promising? (I’m not limited by sector here.) I have more confidence in Appian than in Fulgent. Is that appropriate in your opinion?

Q: I was just about to give up on Sylogist because of its downward trend over the past 5 weeks in a strong market. Then I discovered that CFRA rates it a Strong Buy!! I know that their report is algorithm-generated, but still! I checked out other CFRA algorithm-generated reports for other small-cap Canadian tech stocks and couldn’t find another Strong Buy (lots of sells). I originally signed up for 5i Research because you cover small Canadian companies. SYZ never issues stock, so there's no analyst coverage. Only algorithms. So how much credence would you put on CFRA's algorithm? What is causing it to generate a Strong Buy for SYZ?

Q: REEMF This is about Rare Element Resources. I'm trying to understand why a company would price a future rights offering to shareholders (as of the close of the business day on Dec. 15) so far below the current stock price. The rights offering allows shareholders to buy 1.4 shares at 12 cents for each share they hold as of record date Dec. 15. The stock price has fallen by 50% in the last 5 days, that is, from about 45 cents to 20 cents. Can you shed some light on this? Thanks.

Q: If you were to pick quality compounders in the small cap space (US or Canada) like 3 mentioned, can you suggest a couple of good ones. I generally prefer long term horizon. Thanks. Shyam
