Q: I have been looking at this for quite a while: keeps going down when one would think the opposite? Is there a concern about: oil companies going under & thus defaulting, increasing interest rates in the US - minimal as they may be? Usually bonds and equities act contrary to each. In any case, I was going to buy 3000 shares for my RIF - currently have no bonds and this would be a small position.

Q: Reading a little on Andrew Peller (ADW.a) and I notice their 6 month performance for 2016 exceedingly outperforms the 6 months performance in 2015 (99 cents eps vs 65 cents eps). Is this outperformance a result of a one time item?

I ask because if their back half of 2016 can approach their first 6 month numbers, the stock looks very attractive, in my opinion, especially if they can take their 2016 earnings and continue to grow from there.

Thanks.

John

Q: HI Peter and team - I hold some Concordia in a US account and am interested in adding Concordia to my Canadian account. However it has a P/E ratio of about 190. Of how much concern should this be. What would it take to bring this P/E down to a more reasonable level and is Concordia on track for this. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter, Considering current downturn in biotechs and future overhang of US elections, do you think I would be better off to wait until August/September this year to pick up CXR or NHC? Also I read biotech prices are inversely proportional to interest rates. So do you think it is a good bet to hold CXR at this time when fed is tightening? I have 30% of my portfolio in cash. Should I hold off until August or September(weakest month)to deploy them for a 10 year hold?

Q: Hi Team,
I see the independent review in response to the short report is out. Do you have any concerns especially with the following?

Corporate Processes and Controls

The Committee and its advisors also considered the performance of Intertain's corporate processes and controls and the financial and governance functions and oversight at Intertain. The Committee has made recommendations for changes and improvements in these areas, including to address inadequate documentation, approvals and record keeping in respect of certain payments previously made by Intertain that were recorded and fully expensed by it as transaction expenses in connection with its prior acquisitions.

Thank you, Michael

Q: I own some Couche-Tarde and 5i has said that it is one of its favourite stocks in the consumer sector. With annual cash flow of a little less than US$1 billion and a market cap of US$24 billion, it is trading at 24 times cash flow. This seems very high and appears to be discounting substantial cash flow growth. They have been able to grow significantly in the past. How convinced are you that Couche-tarde can grow cash flow in the future to justify its multipl? Will 5i be writing a report on ATD.b in the future?

Thanks, Gtreat service.
