Q: Hi,
Please explain why RIGL (US) is down today about 22% after it went up yesterday 100% (mid-day).
My exceptions for the stock were to go up & up after RIGL announce it's trial being conducted by Imperial College London to evaluate the efficacy of fostamatinib, its oral spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor, for the treatment of COVID-19 pneumonia
Thanks,
Morris

Q: The above company has come to my attention lately. They appear to have developed a drug NURTEC ODT for pain relief, migraine particularly. I believe the drone just received approval. They are also investors in Kleo Pharmaceuticals working on a Drug for the treatment of COVID-19. I believe Bill and Melinda Gates have just put in 5 million to the same company. I’m just wondering if you were aware of the company and if you are do you have any thoughts about it?

I found this interesting article in Yesterdays Globe and Mail

Q: Thank you for your earlier response to my question on DocuSign.

As a timely follow-up, there's now news of a partnership between Microsoft and Citrix, whom you described as DocuSign's main competitor. Can you comment on this partnership and how you think this may affect DocuSign? Thanks again.

Q: Good morning team,

In a bit of a portfolio cleanup in my TFSA yesterday I sold some laggards and reduced my Shopify shares to bring it more in line with my targeted weighting. After completing Norbert's Gambit, I will be deploying the funds to buy US stocks. Please share your 2 or 3 favourite growth stocks for 5+ year hold in each of the following categories: Health Care, Communication Services, and other non-Tech (if you have more compelling options than those listed in Health and Comm Service).

Thanks in advance,
Rory

Q: I hope I'm not out of line asking this. But I've noticed that, while you seem to like Square, the lack of SQ appearing in your disclosures indicate that you don't own any.

What would be your reasons for not owning SQ? I'm thinking long term and see potential with Square's Cash App replacing consumer banking. Thanks again.

Q: One of the themes that I am seeing is companies reducing in carbon intensity. It seems to be more prevalent in Europe right now, with companies building or buying wind and solar power generation for hydrogen production and use. How can one get exposure to European companies through North American markets including wind turbine manufacturing companies, as the European Union launches a new push to make hydrogen one of the clean fuels of the future? With Covid it seems that EU will push the green energy theme for bonds as well. What do you see as an implication of this in North America? What NA companies and ETF's would you see in this hydrogen arena?
