Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: The guest on BNN Market Call Tonight - John Kim - mentioned on the show that DH is planning some kind of a media event for the public to go over DH's fin tech business. This is supposed to give this business more clarity and transparency on its operations.

If true, can you tell us more about this "event", in terms of timing and content? I think, if the company can cast a positive light on this business, this maybe the much needed catalyst to pull the DH share price from its recent death spiral.

Thanks.

Q: In a recent answer to a question on syz, esl and csu you said
" SYZ and ESL have historically always had high multiples. Keep in mind also that both have large cash balances which if excluded would lower earnings valuations ".
Can you clarify how large cash balances affect earnings multiples?
How would this be calculated for example with SYZ? ie how much would their current cash balance lower their P/E?

Thanks, as always, for a great service.

Q: Hi Team, I held hlf last year and every quarter my frustration increased, all of this to say that this company can't seem to report 2 good quarters in a row. Now that the hurd seems to be piling into the stock again, I am thinking of shorting the stock around $25 or slightly below. What do you think?

I am also thinking of a pair-trade long pbh if I can pick it up around 56-58.

Q: Good day 5i. SJ @ 44.37

Considering adding SJ soon. Would like your thoughts on concrete ties potentially hurting them. I read a couple of articles including this one that indicates concrete ties last longer, may be more environmentally friendly and are much more common in Europe and Asia

Q: I seem to have been afflicted with the same problem other members have experienced. This is my third question, previous two have gone unanswered. I know my question credits are sufficient and your site confirms the question has been sent. Have you identified why this is happening?

My last question related to the most recent conference call with Kinaxis management. There was frequent reference to an inflection point and I am wondering what this is and how it would relate to the company's prospects.
