Q: Seems bewildering to choose among so many types of Tech stocks. Looking for 3 names...would CRM, ADBE or any others you would suggest be worthy at today’s values or should I just run to the SMH ETF? Help and thanks!

Q: Hi. Can I have your views on the following scenario: Currently Canopy Growth is sitting at a market cap of 21B. Aphria + Tilray at about 13B. If I am not mistaken, Aphria + Tilray beats Canopy in all the important financial metrics. Does Canopy have a better future growth profile then Aphria + Tilray, or is there a market mismatch here? (APHA up 13.5% today...)

Q: Sold a put for OSB expires April 16, 2021 $44.00 strike. As things are now, my investing account showes a $492.00 loss. I find difficult how it shows a loss when OSB was taken out at $56.00 (give or take). I'm guessing that $12.00 is being discounted for difference in strike and take out price while approximately $30.00 extra for the WFT is being baked in. When the option expires will I potentially be holding 100 shares of WFG?

Q: Responding to Wilson on Dec 21 you stated that Acuity Ads was moving up based on a "comparable valuation move" relative to TTD based on "price to sales" and that "momentum in the stock is about the best we have seen".  Valuation relative to competitor MGNI was also mentioned in your response.  Since then AT is up approx 40% while TTD is flat, and MGNI has more than doubled.  Please provide an update on the current relative valuation of AT, TTD and MGNI using the price to sales metric (and any additional metric that you feel may be relevant).  Do you consider AT to still be significantly undervalued relative to TTD and MGNI?  Looking ahead, is it a takeover target?  Do you think that the current momentum on AT will push it higher?  Are there any catalysts on the horizon that may push it higher?  Thanks to 5i I have a substantial position in AT with a cost base of $1.46.  I really like to let my winners run but sitting on a holding with a 19x gain, I need to decide if/when to liquidate some of the position.....thank you.

Q: Hello Peter,
With the US elections and the senate win by the democrats, I was expecting that the US cannabis stocks would surge alot more than the Canadian ones. However, this is not the case and am wondering what that is.. For example. if you look at Aphria and Tilray, and Organirams, they have surged alot more than companies that are actually making money like Curaleaf in the USA .. Do you think this is because US companies are not surging as much due to them being on CDNX (not on TSX or NYSE) and may not be readily available for US investors..Also, can you comment on why Medmen is going through the roof in the last 5 days..? thanks very much

Q: Just wondering about the wisdom of purchasing this stock just to capture the dividend then selling it. You would only need to hold it for the time period necessary to be guaranteed the dividend which would be just a few days. I suspect the share price would not drop substantially in those few days. I do not care about share price appreciation that one would get with a buy and hold strategy.
