Q: Hello 5i,
You seem to be just a little more positive on Torstar this time around. Unfortunatly i have been an owner of a small amount for a long time. But, i have been thinking of doing some swing trading on it. It seems to have quite large movements in share price in relatively short periods of time. I dont't think i would buy it as a keeper. But, i thought swing trading may work. I have been afraid of bancrupcy, thought. You don' t seem to be too worried about this, though. I was wondering about your thoughts on this strategy?
Thanks

Q: Your recent answer about this company surprisingly failed to make any reference to the the Site C contract which is expected to generate $45 million of EBITDA in 2016. I would have thought this to be relevant.

Q: Hi 5i staff,
I am contemplating in shorting Directcash as the fundamentals suggest that the stock is due for a correction.
The yield is about 12% and appears to be unsustainable to support the current price.
What are your thoughts and recommendations of such a trade?

Your feedback is kindly appreciated.

Louis

Q: Torstar (ts.b) was recommended by a BNN guest at around $6.00 and again this week at around $1.50 and my screen shows a 16% dividend. Is that actually the dividend and do you see growth for this company as they transition from advertising to digital? I look at newspapers as a very tough business to stay competitive but if this one survives, it could be a great investment. Would you buy it and do you think the dividend will be cut (dramatically)?
Thanks.
