Late Night Finance with Sacha, Episode 5

Date: Thursday, June 25
Time: 6:00pm, Pacific Time *** NOTE NEW TIME
Duration: Projected 1 hour.
Where: Zoom (Registration)

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What are you doing?
A: I’m going to be giving some quarter-ending commentary, a selection of economic statistics, and then opening it up for very general Q&A on any topic. I’m guessing the commentary will go for about 10-15 minutes and the Q&A will fill up the rest of the time, until one hour is consumed or nobody has any questions.

Q: Why are you doing this?
A: Continuing my experimentation in video broadcasting. Who knows, I might learn something from you as well.

Q: How do I register?
A: Zoom link is here. I’ll need your city/province or state, and if you have any questions in advance just add it to the “Questions and Comments” part of the form. You’ll instantly receive the login to the Zoom channel.

Q: Are you trying to spam me, try to sell me garbage, etc. if I register?
A: I can hardly manage a mailing list without breaking my own website, what makes you think I will spam you? No, if you register for this, I will not harvest your email or send you any solicitations. Also I am not using this to pump and dump any securities to you, although I will certainly offer opinions on what I see.

Q: Why do I have to register? I just want to be anonymous.
A: I’m curious who you are as well.

Q: If I register and don’t show up, will you be mad at me?
A: No.

Q: Will you (Sacha) be on video (i.e. this isn’t just an audio-only stream)?
A: Yes. You’ll get to see me.

Q: Will I need to be on video?
A: I’d prefer it, and you are more than welcome to be in your pajamas. No judgements!

Q: Can I be a silent participant?
A: Yes.

Q: Is there an archive of the video I can watch later if I can’t make it?
A: No.

Q: Will there be a summary of the video?
A: A short summary will get added to the comments of this posting after the video.

Q: Is there a limit to the people that can participate?
A: Zoom limits me to 100. I really hope the number isn’t higher than 10.

Q: Will there be some other video presentation in the future?
A: Yes.

Late Night Finance with Sacha

Time: 9:00pm, Pacific Time
Duration: Projected 1 hour, but if it leads to something interesting, longer.
Where: Zoom

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What are you doing?
A: This will be a Q&A session. Ask me about any company on the TSX/Nasdaq/NYSE and I will dissect it. Other questions about an economic/financial nature are accepted as well. I’ll share screens and go through financial statements and annotate (verbally or otherwise). This can be used as a sleeping aid for you.

Q: Why are you doing this?
A: Experimentation in video broadcasting. Who knows, I might learn something from you as well.

Q: Why so freaking late? I live in the eastern time zone.
A: It is late night finance, is it not?

Q: How do I register?
A: Send [email protected] an email. Subject line “Late Night Finance May 1”, and in the message body tell me what city and province/state you’re from (or if you’re international, city and country). I’ll reply later with the zoom channel and passcode to get in.

A: I’d prefer it, and you are more than welcome to be in your pajamas. No judgements!

Q: Can I be a silent participant?
A: Yes, although there isn’t much of a Q&A without at least one of you asking questions! I’ll start off with a small commentary and we can head on from there.

Q: Is there an archive of the video I can watch later if I can’t make it?
A: No.

Q: Is there a limit to the people that can participate?
A: Given the last-minute nature of this posting, I’d be surprised if there will be ANYBODY showing up, but until I get a better idea of how to manage these conferences, I’ll figure this one out if the situation occurs. This also includes me learning aspects of video meeting moderation.

Q: If nobody shows up, what then?
A: To be perfectly frank, I’m expecting this particular outcome. I’ll host another meeting with more notice.

Q: Will there be something in the future?
A: Yes, I’ll give a little more notice.
