Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
Fiera Capital reported this morning and the numbers looked fairly good, at least to me. I have the company in my wife's RRSP account, primarily for its 4% plus dividend yield and future dividend growth. They seem to be growing their AUM quite nicely in difficult markets. Finally the valuation seems inexpensive compared to other Canadian asset managers. I would like your take on the above. Thank you as always for your sage insights. (PS- I just purchased the book "Market Masters" and I thoroughly enjoyed the section devoted to 5i Founder and CEO Peter Hodson. Great interview and wonderful book. I highly recommend it to other 5i subscribers)

Q: This will interest other members holding $GSY. It's not short sellers. I'm told that some employees sold about 2M dollars of shares now that the "buying/selling window" is opened, but a fund picked them up within 30 minutes at $18. Also 4 insiders have bought the stock recently at 19.50 in the public market.

Q: Any particular reason why GSY is doing a nosedive this week?
Most or all of this category is up lately. Their volume today far exceeds daily averages & I can't see any reason for the recent drop. Thank you.

Q: Airboss (BOS) is taking a beating today. Is this simply normal volatility for a company of this size for news of not meeting forecasts/estimates?

Q: For someone who is looking to get some more small/mid exposure in their portfolio, how do you feel about a switch of CGX for BOS at these levels? Besides the portfolio reason stated, main rationale is that CGX looks a little pricey and BOS looks like a good value. Also want to stay in the Consumer Disc. space with this change to keep balanced.

Q: Can you help describe for us how a sitting CEO, also be involved with buying that company? Doesn't the CEO have privileged information that most other shareholders don't and also isn't there a conflict of interest to float a potential offer as it can artificially manipulate the short term stock price? It's very confusing to me that he can do this without undue influence.

Q: Hi,

Are you concerned that large Cdn tech companies are only able to how earnings through acquisitions? CSU's organic growth over the last 3 quarters is essentially flat. Why aren't they able to grow their existing businesses? Do you expect organic growth to return when the macro economic environment improves?

Thank you,
Jason

Q: Hi Guys,

When can we expect a new report on Gamehost?

The last report was Jan 2015 at $13.14 and was rated "B". The stock price is now around $9.15. Do you think it is still a "B" or after a 30% reduction in price is it now an "A"?

An updated report would be appreciated.

Thanks
John
