Q: EGBN missed on revenue estimates, but still had revenue similar to last year. However, the stock plummeted to a 4 year low. Is there anything else going on with this Bank?
I know it was downgraded by some investment firms. Would this be a good entry point or should I stay away.

Thank you
Steve

Q: Following your comments on Paysigns (PAYS), I bought a small amount of it at the end of May. Since then, it has gone up a phenomenal 85% ! What is going on there ? At the present level, I am debating either to buy more to take advantage of my good fortune or sell before it turns as fast as it went up or simply put a stop loss. What would you do ?
A very grateful Montrealer,
Jacques

Q: Hi,
The portfolio Analytics suggests that I hold 8% in communication. Currently I only have 2%, all in Telus. Could you please suggest 2-3 names in the sector, both in U.S. and international? thanks.

Q: May I have your thoughts on Tesla? I was considering buying it for a short term trade to try to ride any waive of short covering—the short float seems high at 30% and I assume that there will have to be some degree of covering if the stock continues to recover a bit on good news. Can I have your opinion on such a trade? Thanks.

Q: With the Canadian dollar on a bit of an upswing, I'm looking to add a bit more US exposure. Currently we have SQ, TEAM, MU and AYX as our "Growthier" US stocks. (Thank You!) We're wondering what your top US picks might be for being potential "up and coming" growth stocks that are maybe a bit under the radar.
Thank you

Q: Hi team,

I am watching WATCH. Cramer keeps coming up with new acronyms. I think he coined FANG several years ago. Cramer likes large cap consumer names with scale. So do I. I am looking for a new name in that sector to offset my large tech holdings. I already own a full Walmart position. While I like Amazon, I still view it as trading with tech sentiment, despite its classification, and I have more than enough tech. I am not sure it should be in this grouping, but I guess Cramer needed an A. I am considering Target, which I think is back on track after its foray into Canada a few years ago. I think I missed the big run in Costco. I don’t mind buying expensive tech stocks for growth, but I am more reluctant to overpay for consumer stocks. Lastly is Home Depot and it still looks relatively attractive to me here. What is your view on adding either Target or Home Depot for growth or are there other large cap consumer names that I should consider?

Thanks again.
Dave
