Q: Hi, Sylogist share price has retreated to $12.50 level, from the high of $14.50, a few weeks ago. Company increased the quarterly dividend by 18.75% recently and had positive notes on its outlook. It also continues buy back its shares, gradually ( in addition to small insider buying). Cormark bumped its price target to $18 and upgraded stock to Top Pick in September, 2018. What's your current view on the company ? Should the recent softness be attributed simply to markets and low liquidity of the stock ? Is it a good candidate to add for dividend and growth ? Thanks

Q: Hi

I have not had time to do the research lately, but what is happening to SIS. I bought it at $16.60 abut a month ago when it was showing good potential and growth. I know that the stock market is turbulent right now, and affecting good companies negatively, but did I miss something important about this company. I bought 300 shares, should I hold on to them or is there something tragic looming on the horizon for SIS.

Q: Hi, share price has declined to $33.86, from a high of $40.88, only a few weeks ago.
This company has a very low share count of 10.9 mln shares with a float of just 7.3 mln. Fairly large holding by insiders/institutions - 35-40%. Decent dividend yield 3.90%. Company's revenue is almost equally distributed between US and Canada. There has also been some nominal insider buying reported recently. Is it just the market volatility and illiquid nature of stock or any other reason for recent softness, in your view? Should we buy/add for dividend and growth ? Thanks

Q: I have been looking to buy a bit more Goeasy in a young adult's TFSA, on the current weakness. I tend to buy based on fundamentals, but I sometimes use technicals to time buys and sells. Today my long standing buy order got filled, near the end of a sharply down day. Do you feel that GSY has broken support here and there is more downside to come? And do you think the decline is just general market negativity, or is there more to it, i.e. are the technicals reflecting a fundamental change? I am not too concerned, as this will be a long term hold, but would like your thoughts if you would be comfortable buying GSY at these levels.
With appreciation,
Ed
