Q: Stock had a good week - was this mainly as a result of the drop in interest rates? Going forward will growth be organic and or are there potential acquisitions (ex Propel) which could be made? Alternatively is the company itself a target for takeover and if so which companies could be potetial buyers? Thanks

Q: OTEX is closing in on my technical buy area. I've read previous Q&A and I realize there is currently negative price action, which doesn't really bother me as a long term buy and hold - unless you see red flags. Just want to make sure about a few things.

Does present cashflow make the debt levels manageable ? How about compared to debt-laden sectors such as utilities and telcos - say, during "tough times".

Is payout ratio really 161% ?

What is your confidence level in management ?

Q: On June the 3rd there was an answer to a question about using RSI and MACD saying these were 2 things that would give you a lot of information if the stock was worth buying. On my iTrade account CLS stock, the RSI on May 30th tells me that I may see higher prices and the price is recovering.

The MACD tells me the volume, closing price, the pattern duration (one week) difference between short and long term bars and the EMA is bullish. Could you interpret that in easier language in case I am misinterpreting it. Incidentally, today the CLS is $72.00. What I read on Scotia, it indicated the prices would be higher over the next while.

Was this an iTrade analyst who prepared this or did it come from a third party?
Thank you once again.

Q: Two questions: 1) what's your recommendation in terms of selling now compared to waiting for a while, and 2) your general thoughts on the premium above yesterday's share price and what that says about how PLC was doing in the public markets? The offer is obviously on the high end of the spectrum for when a company is taken private.

Q: Hi there, ENGH is at a five year plus low, is this justified? Is it a good time to begin accumulating?

Dividend is looking good here for a tech company, any concerns here?

Any further help on this one would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Q: Hi Team,
With weak growth shown from crm , and being that I am already tech heavy, would it be advisable to sell crm to add to propel and Eqb ? Both growing much faster with much cheaper valuations ; but in banking sector instead of tech . However in the alternative banking sector which seems to be much higher growth than the traditional banks currently .

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: Hi - you initiated a 1.5% position in PSI on Mar. 26 and then increased its allocation by another 1.5% on Apr. 9.

You were also asked a question about PSI in comparison to NOA and TVK on Apr. 1, to which you replied you like NOA and TVK.

"PSI is a much more cyclical business than the other two (TVK is less cyclical, and NOA is currently in an up cycle), which we would not be comfortable owning for the long term. In terms of total return, we think TVK and NOA could do well from these levels over the next three to five years given their cheap valuation."

Can you please clarify - what are you seeing in PSI that you like? Is it something you are comfortable owning for long term? Why did your comments seem unfavorable to PSI while you were acquiring shares in your income portfolio?

Thanks,
