Q: Good morning 5i. What is the potential downside of sgyp? With respect to its new fda approved gastrointestinal drug. It appears to have better results than its competitors with less side affects. Its potential market base in the U.S. alone is huge. My question with its recent drop in price and the fact that i'm a little overweight this stock is whether I should hang in there for the next 12months? Thx

Q: Hello,

What are your thoughts on Nike? I read their quarterly report and I personally believe that although they have an increase in competition from Adidas and Under Armour, that investor's are overly pessimistic. Nike is a great brand and if you look back long enough; have they not created tremendous amounts of share holder value?
