Q: I missed the recent run up in the stock, as did not buy when first recommended at 5iResearch, last year. However, reading through your comments, for past several months, I am getting interested in building a position, may be 2%, for all our family accounts. My present portfolio (and family) reflects more of 5i Balanced but also have some Growth companies , like SHOP, GIB.a, KXS, TOY, etc. each 3-4%. I am quite happy with the portfolio mix and its performance. Thanks to continued guidance and excellent picks by your team. Would you be comfortable to buy at today's levels or is it too late to the party. ? Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team,
I have owned MedX for about a year now, watched it go up and down and have held since purchase and accumulated more on the down days. I noticed yesterday there was lots of volume and a 50% gain...but can't seem to determine why the sudden rise on volume and price increase. Robert McWhirter was on BNN on Fri and had some very positive things to say...but can't fathom this as the reason for the increase. I know they have been doing more deals in Europe. Any thoughts on the one day rise in volume and price? Any updates since your last comments on this company?
Keep up the great team work!!
Cheers,
Steve

Q: Good day gentlemen,
Can i get your thoughts on the latest news?
I am trying to decipher what multiple will be attributable to this company. And what a reasonable profit expectation would be if they sold their product within the 8-10$ per gram that has been discussed.
My math:
22,150kg @ 9$ per gram = 200million revenu
Do you have an estimate of potential profit, if this was to come to fruition? And do you have a multiple that can be attributable to this industry? Best estimate of a stock price.
Thx I know this is extremely difficult given the many variables. I would appreciate your best estimate.
Thx again!

Q: I own about 16% utilities - all have been falling quite a bit recently. Based on my limited knowledge of technicals, it seems that they are all at their support levels (except TRP which appears to be below that level). Is it time to buy into these utility stocks based on technicals, or does it seem that they are going to fall some more based on interest rate hike fears, so it would be best to lighten up on utilities? or just do nothing?

Q: Understanding the US isn't your focus, do you have any insight into this stock? They appear to be a going concern with a short term issue that the shorts ganged up on looking for a quick buck. I bought some at about 50 dollars and am tempted to buy more knowing that next earnings may still show some effects, BUT that 2017 numbers will still be handily better than 2016, and 2018 looks good. Thoughts?
