Q: Hi Team,

I am watching Gsy shares fall after beating on earnings. Any idea why the shares are selling off after what seems to be great results? Also ; has there been any speculation yet of who will get the new CEO role? And also do you feel it’s possible Mullins is leaving due to a possible upcoming “taking private “ of the company? I found it odd for him to leave at this stage just when Gsy seems to be growing its scale at an exponential rate. Thanks

Shane

Q: ECN capital got back to positive EPS in the last quarter (3 cents). The share price is breaking out today. Management is still guiding for 10 to 16 cents of EPS for the year. In the background is the chance to their partner in the manufactured home financing (triad) could do a take over of ecN (not a sufficient reason the buy on its own but another positive possibliity). And combining a good chance for lower interest rates which I believe would help ecN makes me want to add to my small position in ecN. What is you read on the earnings and do you concur that it is time to add to a ecN position?

Q: I have been a shareholder of Brookfield for 14 years and have gotten into the habit of reading CEO (Bruce Flatt) message to shareholders each quarter. I found the sections on in this quarter's letter interesting Share Repurchases and The AI Revolution is Increasingly a Renewable Story that your members may find worth wild reading. He also states that the share price is about 50% of the value of the company. Over the short term I could almost careless about the stock price of the company as the value of the company grows by 20% or so per year. Does this seem out of sorts the way I look at Brookfield.

Q: Thanks for a recent suggestion for U.S. exposure in an open CAD account - HXS.

In my RRSP I was going to add BRK.B and was surprised by its low PE ratio of about 9. Is this correct? Maybe there is a better metric to use to evaluate this equity(?)

AVNV seems to be the perfect non-U.S. compliment in my RRSP (except for that bit of exposure it has to Canada…which is fine). I like the fact that it is an international Value ETF - a mixture of large, small and Emerging Market. I doubt there a better comparable option, but figured I’d ask if you are aware of one.

Q: Hi Peter, what are your thoughts on the BRK earnings, big sales of APPl, and the $271B horde ? Warren loves Insurance and has been buying Chubb shares; could he take a run at it with its ~$100B Valuation ? Any other thoughts appreciated as its our biggest position. Thank you.
