Q: So far it has been an eventual year to date for Quarterhill -- gone are the CEO , the dividend , the CFO and the WiLan Division . The sale of WiLan seemed like an overly complicated transaction -- what is your opinion of the price of $71m they received ?
Quarterhill was a top pick yesterday on BNN , and at close of business today the stock was up 20% in two days . What is your current opinion of QTRH -- are they perhaps a candidate for going private , or maybe a takeover target ?

Q: Hi team
awhile ago, someone did mention re: some of the top Canadian companies that has involvement in AI (artificial intelligence) that are top picks
the names of OTEX and KXS were mentioned; are they still the top picks in this sector in Canadian stocks? could you add 1-2 more names in the order that you would recommend? I got both OTEX and KXS already in my portfolio; thanks
Michael

Q: Recent news is that CDAY is in line for a major role in the replacement to the federal gov't's catastrophic Phoenix pay system. Given the complexity of this area, does this make CDAY a buy or a sell?

Q: Hello 5i team,

There is such a difference in Nuvei’s adjusted and unadjusted financial results. On an adjusted basis it looks like an incredible growth at a VERY price story. Unadjusted with stock compensation doesn’t look close to the same. What are your thoughts on the adjusted and unadjusted results for this story?

Also, do you have any concerns about the adjusted fcf yield that is used to buy back shares that are issued at part of comp and adjusted out, effectively making the story less profitable?

Thank you!

Q: Hi - of these two stocks, would you be buyers of both at current prices? Do you favour one over the other or are comfortable buying both? Growth objective and held within diversified portfolio. Which of the two would perhaps have greater downside in a recession? In your mind does either have a beta higher than 1 in a mkt downdraft? Thanks as always!

Q: Hi Folks,
I have come across ZQQ and XQQ. What do you think of me adding one of these to my RRSP account. I would like some exposure to Tech and this seems like a simple way to do it OR would it be better to buy the individual companies themselves?
Thanks

Q: Apparently there was a crypto or blockchain conference within the last week attended by some of the wealthiest individuals and companies on the planet.

Would you know what it was called?

1.It seems clear that some very influential people want this area to have a place in the world banking and trading worlds.


2. One commentator ( Josh Brown ) expressed the opinion that for the foreseeable future it will be very high risk kind of like gold mines over the years. But there might be money to be made in the picks & shovels companies..

Do you have any suggestions of companies that have merit or look to have potential in that picks & shovels areas?

Thank you

Q: I very recently picked up a small starting position in SMCI at $235. Am waiting before adding anything further. I don't normally base decisions on technicals but would like your thoughts on what price level you think would be reasonable. It did gap up in May around $160. In your experience, would you expect the price to come down to fill this ? Any other comments would be appreciated.
