Q: I have WELL thanks to 5I bringing it to my attention but
there is one thing I really do not understand.
WELL has payed a premium of over 80% for CRH.

For many years, CRH has been struggling not been doing well (no pun intended).
5I Research has said in every commentary that it would SELL CRH and "not need to own"!
For WELL to buy a struggling company at an 80% premium, how can this
be a good deal?

Thanks and I am very interested to your response.

Q: I’ve held BAD since it’s .un days so done well with it over the long term, and was fortunate to be able to add to my position last March taking it to 3.5% in a well diversified RRSP. I’m looking for some decent growth out of it, however, and I’m not sure this one has that over the next couple of years unless oil activity fires up again in NA (fat chance). Does BAD have potential to benefit from from all the recovery infrastructure spending and is that a catalyst worth holding/adding to BAD?

Thanks

Q: I am confused concerning your point of view regarding the growth potential of SYZ. Recently, you gave the following answer :
''We would view it as an income stock and see any gains as a bonus. Growth has not been great, but it has a solid record of raising its dividend and paying special dividends. It has too much cash and has been slow at making acquisitions. It should have a very strong 2021 in a recovery and we would still view it overall in a positive light. But there are faster-growing companies, with higher valuations. We would be fine holding it, but would classify it as income/slower growth.''
But in your last June Company Report, you grade the 5 Yr. Revenue Growth as A- and the 5 Yr. EPS Growth as A+. It looks to me contradictory. What am I missing?
In the past ten years, there was a yearly revenu growth of 15,5 % and 17,5 % for the earnings, which look great to me.
Thanks. I really appreciate your sound expertise.

Q: I have held Knight for many years waiting for the payoff. Now they are being booted out of the
Index to make way for GFL. They filed their shelf prospectus so perhaps something is brewing.
They report in March. Yes there is value but they sure haven’t created any in almost five years? How long do we wait?

Q: Hi,

PHO looks to be around its all-time highs. It also seems to be a strange trading stock, maybe because of the size of the company? Looks like it maxes out in this neighborhood and bottoms out around $0.75-$0.90/share.

If you were taking a guess today, do you see it running higher from here? Or time to take profit.

Thanks,
Ryan
