Q: Peter Lynch amassed a fortune investing in undervalued growth stocks. I currently own LNR & GSY. Can I get some other names that you would consider good GARP stocks?
Thanks in advance.

Q: Hi 5i,

I received a notice of a tender offer for ECN shares. The offer advises that existing shareholders can participate by specifying a price between $3.49 to $3.90 per share as a Dutch auction. Can you clarify how this sort of thing typically works, versus just buying at the market price? I'm wondering if this is a good deal for existing shareholders. As of me writing this, the share price is $3.71.

Thanks!

Q: Enc.pr.a

Hello 5i
Thanks for the informative service.

I have owned this ecn capital pref share for a while with original purchase price below the $25 issue. I am surprised to see the price back down to this level again given it is a rate reset with a minimum yield% reset.
Has the risk level of this pref or the company increased recently?
The volume is very low. Is this just simpathy selling associated with Efn poor performance and lowered outlook?
Your though on what is up with this share is appreciated.
Dave

Q: I was wondering whether your service has anyone that uses technical analysis or whether you only go by fundamental analysis? It seems that technical analysis would have shown a definite red flag with ECN on the chart months back when the stock had a very big reversal candle in early November. Perhaps you could consider bringing on someone with TA expertise to help with stock selection and opinions.

Q: I have a question about ECN Capital.
There seems to be something very wrong as the stock price continues to go down almost every day. Management should never have talked about closing on some deal only to then come forward to say that it would be best not to do a deal as this only caused expectations to be dashed. It seems to me analysts do not seem to have much confidence in management.

The chart also looks absolutely horrendous so I was wondering whether there was any point in holding on here or best just to cut losses and move on as it does not really look like this company has much of anything going for it based on performance to date?

Thanks for your thoughts.
Susan
