Q: Hi there,
So another stock that's popped up on my radar thanks to Twitter. KBNT - have you heard of it? Any thoughts on it? Currently have a small holding in my TFSA, shall I add? Morningstar thinks its under FV. Many thanks as always.

Q: Hi Peter

To follow up on my earlier question, I forgot to mention that both my wife and I are planning to retire in 5 years. So, I am slowly changing my investments to be income focused and less on capital growth

You have mentioned the interest in the IPO for AFFIRM will be high. Is there service being copied by others in the space( you have mentioned PYPL) and do they have any discernible advantage.

Q: Hi there,

DMTK I came across DermTech listening to a MF US stock advisor live session on 10X opportunities. I spent some time reviewing their most recent earnings transcript and other research and the technology for non invasive detection of skin cancer seems powerful but super early in terms of adoption (a brief excerpt is below). I am considering buying for TFSA and have the following questions:
1. What is your general opinion?
2. Do you have any information on how a dermatologist would be paid for using this test vs surgery? My fear would be that the tech is amazing but dermatologists may not use it if it would reduce their revenue

"Currently, approximately 25 surgical biopsies are performed to find one melanoma. And despite all this cutting, the negative predictive value of this pathway is only about 83%, which means the probability of missing melanoma is approximately 17%. The PLA reduces the number of surgical biopsies needed to identify melanomas by approximately 10-fold and increases the negative predictive value so 99%, meaning the PLA has less than 1% probability of missing the disease. DermTech is effectively bringing melanoma diagnosis into the 21st century by transforming it from a pathway to subjective, invasive, inaccurate and costly to one that is objective, non-invasive, highly accurate, and less costly."

Q: Hi,

Of these relatively new biotech companies that have or will soon be IPO'ing, Repare Therapeutics (June IPO) and Abcellera Biotech (upcoming IPO), where would you put some play money? A bit of both? Or another recent IPO/choice altogether?
It seems that Abcellera might be a little ahead of the game wrt being profitable already. And I'm pretty sure given the expected interest, I may have to get this initially on the open market.
Are there any things from a finance view we should be aware of with these IPO's other than biotechs can be more risky dependent on clinical trial results, etc..
Repare has done well since its IPO in June.
Can you pls also add Repare to your db? It did not come up in a text or stock symbol search.

Cheers,
SteveMc
