Q: I have some cash to add to a small growth , non-registered portfolio, holding TSGI, SYz, COV . Looking at MCR or PHO . Would you recommend either of these or would you suggest an alternative. Or would you prefer just adding to one of the 3 existing ones.
Many thanks as always.

Q: My small cap portfolio currently consists of Macro Enterprise, Sangoma Technologies, and Gran Columbia Gold. I’m looking for 1-2 more niche small cap names to add to that list. Are there a couple others that interest you right now? Thanks.

Q: Peter and his Wonder Team
Macro just reported its 4th quarter declining revenues which was widely expected and I think not too bad considering the sector and commodity prices as a whole. Please give me your overview of this company and its prospects going forward! Would you still consider it a cheap stock with the strength to survive the sector storm? Thanks for your continued knowledge!

Q: A guest on BNN recently said he was shorting MCR and thinks it goes to zero. This has got me concerned as I'm down 70% and had planned to wait out the oil recovery. My question is do you also think it goes to zero or do you think it will survive at this point? Could it be an aquisition target? I seem to have a problem knowing when to sell. Any advice or articles on when to sell a stock would be appreciated. Thank you for your service.

Q: Please compare these two oil service providers in terms of balance sheets, management and corporate quality. Do you think they both have the ability to ride through this downturn? If so...of the two who has the best upside? In other words which one do you like the best?
Thanks for your calm insights during these uncertain times!!

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Just read your update on MCR quarterly report. Today the stock closed at $2.09 I believe and actually bounced at $1.87...I know you are a value investor and in the past have been positive on this stock. So in light of current events...oil crashing and its impact on a service company like MCR I am wondering if you could see this as a reasonable contrarian play. As such I know the balance sheet has to survive until the cycle turns...And do you think tax loss selling could reduce the price even further?
Thanks in advance for your always insightful analysis!
