Idea for the future: Eastower (OVO.P.V) will be a 5G wireless ‘picks and shovels’ play
“What sector is hot?” is the one question I get asked more than any other. Well, okay, maybe “Why didn’t you respond to my text?” is the most asked, but the sector question is a close second. The answer can change by the month. We’ve had cannabis runs, crypto runs, psychedelic runs, mining runs, e-sports…

Kwesst Micro Systems (KWE.V) blasting off like a missile, hitting all its targets
Nobody really talks about defense as an investment opportunity in the Canadian smallcap space, primarily because the Canadian government isn’t perceived as being as much a free spender on defense tech as, say, the United States. Down there, where a military toilet seat might cost $2400, being in the defense sector can be a license…

Victory Square (VST.C) & FansUnite (FANS.C): the difference between U.S. and Canadian V.C. culture
A recent article in The New Yorker, savagely attacked American Venture Capital (V.C.) culture – focusing on the billions of dollars wasted on WeWork’s bullshit business model. The CEO of WeWork (an office-share company) was a self-aggrandizing, charismatic, pot-smoker named Adam Neumann who destroyed competitors by charging unsustainably low office rental rates. The V.C companies…

Perimeter Medical Imaging AI (PINK.V) isn’t messing about: Let’s make breast cancer treatment better – and profitable!
In the North American biotech space, you hear a lot of ‘promise’ from companies and their teams. Lots of ‘we’re going to take this to trial’, and a lot of ‘billion dollar industry’ talk. Lots of early stage bets, a little over-hype perhaps. For the most part, you’re being asked to invest in technologies that…

Adults in the room alert: Kwesst (KWE.V) develops and sells video game future tech to modern day defense forces
If you’ve been paying attention over the last few years, you’ve seen a few nice runs for companies engaged in the security/military space. Patriot One (PAT.C) has done nicely with tech to sniff out security threats at crowded points of access. CAE (CAE.T) is a multi-billion dollar company working in the military sim space. Draganfly…

AMPD Ventures (AMPD.C): 52% jump on high performance computing provider validates CEO stance of ‘patience and focus’
When folks ask AMPD Ventures (AMPD.C) CEO Anthony Brown what his company does, he usually asks, “Have you seen the Spielberg movie, Ready Player One?” Most people say no. That’s a shame, because the movie is great, and it explains what AMPD is looking to achieve pretty well. AMPD wants to build The Oasis, a…

TGS E-Sports (TGS.V) lands on the CSE with plans to build global gaming stadium empire
E-sports stocks are, by and large, a silly thing right now, with a lot of folks bringing out deals that make little sense financially. As with the psychedelic space, the blockchain world, and the early days of the cannabis sector, most investors are less concerned about long term viability as they are not missing a…

ImagineAR (IP.C) announces ‘imminent’ deal, which hasn’t happened yet and might not, but it’s TOTALLY IMMINENT GUYS
Look man, when I run my lance of justice through a piece of shit tech company that makes insane promises and almost no money, and its share price halves in a few days, I generally take a step back and let the dust settle before I go back in for more. It’s not that I…

Pump hard: ImagineAR (IP.C) is back to its old tricks, fueling a stock run on phantom deals and celebrity farts
I shot out of town for a few weeks recently, managing to get well drenched in a tent in the BC rainforest, and being without cellphone access for most of two weeks will teach a guy a thing or two about his relationship to the markets. It used to be said you should ‘sell in…
