CEO Stepping Down. About a year and a half ago he focused on a private placement from the company that traded at a premium -- something that was normally unheard of. This created a red-flag to him about the company, Today's disappointing news from the short sellers need to be rebuked, but he is not sure they will be able to.

He is not an expert on the tobacco companies, but sees them getting into cannabis as a smart move. He expects more tobacco companies to do the same. He does not know the company well enough to recommend a buy, but he is not interested.

A lot of their business focuses on the oil and gas sector. They pay a decent dividend. He has never owned it. With LNG plans in BC moving forward, he thinks this should help.

They started off with technology to deal with natural gas flares. A well company that has a lot of potential. He would stick with it.

They make steel wire for fencing and nails. Currency weakness hurt them, but he feels they could be ripe for a turn around. He would continue to hold onto it. He will look into owing it again.

He met the founder of the company years ago and he thought it was an interesting company, but never pulled the trigger. It hit a few speed bumps and thought they were improving their profitability. He would continue to hold it.

A market darling for many years, always beating analysts expectation. The rising multiples and a few missteps have caused it to fall from grace and he feels the company has been re-rated. He does not expect them to return to high multiples again. He would be cautious.
