Investment Q&A

Q: Each of these stocks in my portfolio is down approximately 30% and seem to be going no where. Should I cut my loses and move on?

Q: GIVEN THE MESS THAT IS COMING IN THE MAY MEETING, WHAT DO YOU SEE HAPPENING? IS THERE A BUYING OPPORTUNITY HERE IF THERE IS FAITH IN GUD.....OR A SIT TIGHT... OR A SELL?
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Q: Pertaining to the proxy fight, if I fail to vote, is my vote counted towards the current board, counted at all, or to the new directors as proposed by medison?

Thx

Q: HI Peter,
I invested in Knight for long term (5 years plus) but it has been frustrating. I was going to hold on given the management teams in place; however, with the current proxy fight, I am not sure what to do. I think in all of the time i have been in the market, this company has been a major disappointment as it feels like the company just drags its feet, and I simply trusted management given the track record. Now, as a shareholder i feel I am in a tough spot. What are the negatives and the positives for holding onto the stock please? In past discussions relating to gold and other types of commodities, the best way to invest was in streaming companies or picks and shovels. Any idea why this has not translated into the cannabis stocks? For example, the stock performance for Auxly Cannibis group and radient tech has not been that great. Lastly, what do you think of Valens Groworks and Enwave? Thanks very much.

Q: Following close scrutiny of the available information to date, I have decided to support Johnathan Goodman in his battle with Medison. This is essentially a war between two men as no one else at Knight or Medison has more than 35000 shares (one person) and the rest have basically none. Goodman has double the number as Medison. I predict Goodman will add to his position before May 7 - he could afford as many shares as he wants/needs to succeed.
However, kudos to Jakobsohn, despite my extreme cynicism towards his motives - he will control the 28% of his company that knight owns plus get control of almost $800M in cash that he did NOT raise, Goodman did - as this process has unquestionably devalued Goodman's reputation and I am sure he will be working at full potential to restore it and long before his tired grandchildren timeline evolves. When/if he wins, he could do a $2B deal the next day as raising any extra funds would receive widespread market support. Can Jakobsohn claim the same?

Q: How much cash does Gud have compared to its market cap and do they have any growing cash generating product. Thinking of selling position and splitting the proceeds with zynex and viemed.

Q: Like many long suffering investors, I am really getting fed up with this stock. I watched a recent interview on BNN with Jonathan Goodman and was not impressed. He had an opportunity to justify why GUD was a public company and completely failed to do so. His message seemed to be if you are not investing for your grandchildren's financial future you might as well forget this stock. I think GUD should at least initiate an initial and rising dividend policy since it has failed to invest much of the large pool of cash being reserved for acquisitions. What do you think of these odds. Thanks.

Q: Thinking of different options for GUD and was wondering if Goodman has the means to take it private. Your thoughts?

Q: I am tired of waiting for GUD to do something. I have 50,000 shares; what would you suggest in trying to sell these?

Q: I was surprised with a previous question “What would you recommend if Mr Goodman steps down? Hold? Sell?”
My impression is that he has no intention and there is no indication that he will “step down.” Am I missing something?
From what I have read it also appears that it is unlikely that Medison will succeed in forcing him to step down.
Attached a recent article in the globe. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-knight-therapeutics-ceo-addresses-dissident-shareholders-proxy-fight/
In your opinion do you agree that Goodman will stay in control and get shareholder’s support?
Thanks
John

Q: What would you recommend if Mr Goodman steps down? Hold? Sell?
Thank you for your service

Q: Hi
Do you have a feel for how long a proxy fight and all the goings on at GUD will rumble on before settling down ?
You'll have had more experience with these kind of events than I have.

Thanks
Mike

Q: Do you think the proposed nomination of the new directors gets approved by share holders ?
If so, could the new board replace Mr. Goodman.
Can you elaborate as to what is most likely to happen in the next few months ?
Thanks for your advice.

Q: Medison(7.3% shareholder) is nominating 6 (qualified members per co) plus its CEO(existing director) to the board of GUD(total 7 seats).Maybe this will result in positive price action for long suffering investors who bought in the $10 range.Your comment please.Thanks for u usual great services & views

Q: what is the connection between these 2 companies?
thanks.

Q: I own 6800 shares of Knight at an average cost of $8.10. This amounts to about 2% of my portfolio. I could sell it all, sell half or do nothing. What do you see for Knight in the next 5 years. Should I be looking elsewhere? Thank You.

Q: Never fall in love with a stock, i feel i5 has on this one. Say treating it like cash for buying an idea later, why not buy a solid income stock with a good dividend and treat it as a cash account as you say, at least you are getting something. Speaking of cash rich companies, how about buying Apple and hold it for cash, and also a dividend, no shortage of cash there.

Q: To take Goodman's "grandchildren" analogy to heart, then, ... I'm assuming he's telling us to bail if we don't have grandkids? : /

What if our grandkids are already taken care of, and we'd like to see better results now?

Five years seems to be an awfully long time for compost to ferment, in my mind. I'm an organic gardener, so no disrespect intended here. ; )

Your thoughts, please, on his silly analogy. This slow-burning genius seems to be fizzling out, like a dud firecracker. Surely investors deserve a little something for being so patient -- maybe even a little respect.

Q: I hate lawsuits. Been holding Knight at a huge loss waiting for the big payday. I know you do not act as a financial advisor but would YOU hang on to your knight shares? Lawsuits take forever unless this Medison guy settles. This will distract from business at hand. Yes, no? Thanks for your views and sage advice.

Q: How much cash/share does Knight Therapeutics have? Thanks.
