Q: Any thoughts on Canada Goose's earnings? Looks like they reported earnings of 9 cents for the Q and $1.36 for 2019 against 6 cents and $1.30 expected (from the consensus info I have on iTrade).

Premarket, as of now, show the shares down 12%. Did GOOS miss on revenue or any other metric that is initially concerning the market? And if so, how do you feel about that miss?

In your opinion, what differentiates GOOS from becoming a Roots?

Thanks.

John

Q: Good afternoon 5i Team,
Looking for the advice on building up the portfolio.
I currently have CAD RRSP and USD RRSP accounts worth $10200 and $8500 respectively.
I hold 4.3% of OSS shares and 11.4% of TRZ shares in CAD RRSP currently.
My question is whether I should still hold 2 accounts in both currencies or consolidate them in CAD going forward?
Also, what would you recommend to invest in? Risk - moderate.
Thank you and happy Friday

Q: You mentioned plus to a question as being in the cannabis gummy market. I noticed they had record revenues this past quarter and they are accelerating expiration of their warrants convertible at .69 US—if I understand what I am reading on the company. So my question is is it investible at this time in a TFSA for growth.

Q: Canada Goose has been criticized for its use of down, fur and wool by PETA and other sources, and there are lots of questions on the internet about their treatment of animals. Do you consider their transparency standard for ethical sourcing and use of the products "ethical enough" to withstand any public concerns and ad campaigns against it? If so, do you still consider it is a good buy at $65? They are opening 6 new stores this fall so they must feel confident. Thanks for your valued opinion on this.
