Q: Hi the GREAT Team,

Which of the following has the greatest growth potential in the short term (1 year): SWKS-Q, MU-Q, Or FB-Q.

All 3 seem to show a lot of insider selling. Is this cause for concern prior to upcoming earnings report release by each company? Which one do you recommend?

I have some US dollar to spend and I wonder if I should choose TRN, in the light of the drop yesterday,for the same kind of growth potential and far less volatility.

In tech stocks I already have shares of: CSU, DHX, AVO, BIDU, NXPI, DDD, AYA, FEYE,CMI,QIHU,PHO. I have fewer shares in industrial stocks: Boeing, TSLA, and Kelso,MX.

Thanks a million for putting me out of my misery in making this decision.

Q: What do you think of the sale of assets announced yesterday and also the coincidental purchase of aircraft assets. I've owned this a few months and its up 11% this morning. I admit I'm having difficulty figuring out what this might all mean to both the risk and growth profile for this company . The sale at 200 million is big numbers for a small cap like this. Thanks

Q: Hi,
I forgot about this stock during recent volatility and starting to look at again. I like the assets and lack of debt. I dislike the earnings and my lack of knowledge of the management. Do you know the management at all and any thoughts on investing small position for 3-5 years or longer?
Thanks,
John

Q: Hi Peter,
Any idea why High Liner and Shawcor are still dropping while others have recovered. Both went up after the sell off, but are now dropping again. Fundamentals appear to be good on both so am a bit puzzled. I am thinking of entering Starbucks. I have done very well on the stock and sold it when it hit the 80s. It has been sitting in the low 70s but the PE is very high. The technicals look okay. Your view is greatly appreciated.
