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

Q: Hi group still agonizing over keeping or selling this stock before results for 3 rd quarter are posted next week Nov 3. Looks like lots of insider trading (can you confirm?) the stock came off significantly over the last month . Looks fishy to me that there is some information out there that we as shareholders do not have (hence the question on insider trading) - please comment. My second question is on LSPS I sold at $46.50 Cad and am waiting to get back in - do you see the stock dropping below $40 is this environment or will it hold - should I buy sooner rather than later I am a moderate risk investors . Thanks for your guidance.

Q: Good morning, As a retired investor with ~ 50/50 asset mix and mainly quality dividend stocks in equities for income, I am thinking of investing in BAM for some growth potential. I like their infrastructure focus and relationships with big institutions, but but two things are giving me pause. One is BAM's investments (I think ~ 16% of NAV) in commercial real estate, and second, my stock tracker shows a Debt to Equity ratio of 5.17. Acknowledging interest rates are likely not a concern short/medium term, and risks exist with every stock, does 5i feel the commercial real estate and high debt mix should make a small investor look elsewhere, or would you recommend BAM? Your thoughts are appreciated. Thank you.

Q: In the answer you gave a member today about SHOP, you say: "Growth is solid, for sure, and it has done most things right, but many investors will balk at paying 35X sales for a stock.” In the company profile of SHOP, we see a Price to Sales of 66.28 (as of today). Are you referring to the same ratio? If yes, which of 35 or 66 is the correct number? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Why would SIS have released a "pre" quarterly report when their actual results are scheduled to be issued in a couple of weeks? If memory serves, I think they did this last quarter as well but they are one of the few, if only, companies that seem to do this. Should anything be read into this early disclosure, despite the fact it is good news?

Appreciate your insight.
