2 Good morning! Traci Costa is implementing a major strategy shift at the company she founded, Peekaboo Beans (CSE:BEAN). Find out in our interview about the changes the e-commerce children's clothing company has made in order to "supercharge" growth and the stock.

3 We'll also post a new interview later today with the CEO of a cannabis company that's building a global footprint and production capacity, and has brands on the shelves. Morning Need to Know Getting you ready for your investing day December 6, 2018 Written & compiled by Mark Bunting, Publisher, Capital Ideas Media CANADIAN ANALYSTS' CALLS INITIATIONS TECSYS (TSX:TCS) Haywood Securities, which does investment banking with the supply chain firm, starts coverage with a "buy" and a price target of $19 (Canadian), giving the shares 43% upside, citing the company's "experienced management team, solid track record, strong balance sheet, large market opportunity, return to growth, and renewed focus on acquisitions."

4 Hear from the TECSYS CEO in our interview from September of last year. Cobalt 27 (TSXV:KBLT) rated a "buy" at Paradigm Capital with a target of $8.25. TMAC Resources (TSX:TMR) Laurentian Bank Securities begins with a "buy" and a target of $8.50. Dream Office REIT (TSX.D.UN) CIBC reinstates coverage with a "neutral" rating and a price target of $25. ** ProMetic Life (TSX:PLI) Echelon Wealth upgrades to "speculative buy" and lifts the target to $1 from $0.60. Teck Resources (TSX:TECK.B;NYSE:TECK) TD Securities upgrades to "action list buy" and moves the target to $45 from $43. CIBC also lifts the target to $45 from $43 and reiterates "outperformer" after the company sold an asset for $1.2 billion. U.S. ANALYSTS' CALLS

5 AutoZone (NYSE:AZO) Credit Suisse raises the target to $930 (U.S.) from $854 after a strong earnings report. Marathon Petroleum (NYSE:MPC) Cowen & Co. hikes the target to $101 from $87 on higher cash flow and shareholder returns. STOCKS THAT MAY MOVE Canopy Growth (TSX:WEED;NYSE:CGC) is buying German vaporizer design and manufacturing company Storz and Bickel for $220 million (Canadian) in cash. Aphria (TSX:APHA;NYSE:APHA) continues its damage control in the wake of a short seller's report and a massive vaporization of its stock value the last three sessions as it says it's appointed a special committee of independent directors to review the company s previously completed acquisition of LATAM Holdings and to confirm the company s belief that it conformed with all company policies and generally accepted corporate governance practices. Drone Delivery Canada (TSX:FLT) announced an agreement with the Moose Cree First Nation communities worth $2.5 million in revenue in year one. Dollarama (TSX:DOL) missed estimates with

6 its quarterly earnings and revenue as samestore sales rose 3.1% but transactions declined 1% from last year. Cascades (TSX:CAS) is buying assets in the U.S. for $37.4 million (U.S.) PRO REIT (TSX:PRV.UN) is buying two light industrial properties in Ontario for $15.4 million (Canadian). Hydro One (TSX:H) Washington state has rejected the company's $6.7 billion takeover of Avista saying the deal would not adequately protect Avista and its customers from political and financial risk. Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) is down 3% in pre-market trading as a British Parliamentary investigation reveals the company struck deals with the likes of RBC to supply friends data in return for advertising. With files from The Globe and Mail, Reuters and Bloomberg News. MARKETS S&P futures were halted intermittently this morning because the CME deemed them to have fallen too far and took fast and TSX futures are sharply lower after Canada arrested the CFO of Chinese telecom Huawei at the request of the U.S., escalating tensions between China and the U.S. European stocks as a group are at two-year

7 lows and Asian stocks dropped overnight. CURRENCIES The Canadian dollar is lower by 0.5% at $ (U.S). COMMODITIES West Texas Intermediate is down 3.4% to $51.07 a barrel on speculation OPEC won't cut production as much as expected. Gold is up a bit at $1, an ounce. Daily Update See the new Digest for an under-followed technology company serving a multi-billion dollar market with growth and takeout potential.

8 Watch the replay of our live interview with Kiril Mugerman, President and CEO of Kintavar Exploration (TSXV:KTR). The company is exploring a once dormant copper mine in Quebec and drilling results have been an "eye opener". Major miners are following Kintavar's progress very closely. The stock quintupled earlier this year and Mugerman says is now back in a nice buying range for those who missed the first run.
