Q: Does Photon need PR help? I get being cautious but their release could have been worded in a much better light. I’m also trying to reconcile how their guidance seems to diverge with other companies in the semi industry. I understand that q1 benefited from a large forex gain and covid inventory hoarding from customers, but most semiconductor companies have provided continued strong out looks for the remainder of the year and into 2021. Any worries here? Thanks

Q: Hi Folks,
I want to shake up my small cap holdings. I would like to add some of your favorites such as WELL, STC and PHO. I currently have losses in AKU, CHR, EIF and TCL.A......should I continue to hold these or sell to free up some cash for better opportunities. It's a registered account so no tax implications.
Thanks for your help,
Dennis

Q: SIS, PHB, PHO have all been pushed below the 1% weighting mark in my portfolio. This is due partly to starting the positions back when when my portfolio was smaller, the stocks not performing great and because other holdings (KXS!!!) have done extremely well. What 2 positions would you sell here to add to the remaining position? I'm leaning towards keeping PHO because of the balance sheet but wanted your thoughts.

Thanks

Q: hello 5i Research team, PHO: 3 of the 5 board members only got 75% or 76% of « vote for » at the annual meeting. This is quite unusual. Could you identify some potential significant investors that would have voted against? Are awhere of anything about those persons that would explain this? Should I worry, especially with a new president? Can we expect some divergence of opinion between management and shareholders that could cause some change in the organization? Thank you for your collaboration, Eric

Q: These five stocks make up my small cap portfolio that is by design fairly concentrated and aggressive. I recently added QST on the significant pull back. I’m thinking that it can weather the down turn (great balance sheet) and will likely be a 2x bagger minimum when things turn around. Are there any other small cap names like it, that have been hammered, will survive, and that you could see moving significantly in the next 12-24 months? Thanks

Q: This is to answer the question posed by another subscriber. TD added PHO to their Quantitative Small Cap Portfolio and deleted DSG because it is now a large cap.

Here is the text:

Canadian Small Cap Model Portfolio Market Overview/Technology
We are adding a position in Photon Control Inc. (PHO-T) at 2.0%. We have seen a relative shift to value (i.e. cyclical) from growth over the past few weeks. One area where this shift has been confirmed is by the recent breakout in the more cyclical small-cap semiconductor stocks relative to the technology sector.
We are also removing our position in Descartes Systems Group Inc. (DSG-T, portfolio weight 5.9%). After gaining more than 134% since its addition to our small- cap model portfolio in early-2017, its market weight has increased to 26 bps (i.e. $5.5 billion market float) and as a result, it no longer qualifies in our small-cap universe.
