Q: Hi 5i, Alaris announced bad news a while back when one of the companies it was financing ran into trouble and suspended payments to Alaris. At that time the AD share price was around $22 I think and the bad news drove it back down into the teens. Since then it has had three good news announcements. First, it announced that the trouble situation was not a worst case scenario and there was a reasonable prospect of AD getting a significant recovery from it. The next two good news announcements involved about $130M of new or additional investments on terms acceptable to Alaris. My question is: at this point, does it make sense to view Alaris' business (not the shares) as fully recovered from the effects of the investment that went sour, or do they still have some work to do to get back on track? Since the bad news first hit, the shares have had difficulty getting any traction above $20. Thanks for any comments!

Q: Do you think this is a good time to buy back in to the marijuana sector? Or should I wait ~6 months to see more steady revenue streams and see if some of the better known names can reach profitability next year? I did well selling aphria prior to legalization date. If you would buy now, what would be your recommended Canadian listed stocks?
