Q: Hi 5i,
I looked on the MSI web site and it looks like they do not offer Career Management Services (ie job loss displacement servces). Can you confirm this please?
This service seems to be offered by PEO. Can you also confirm this please?
In my opinion, this is a key service to have if there is a significant downturn in our economy and there is a great deal of job loss. Can you suggest any CDN listed stocks which may provide this service?
thanks

Q: My broker got me into Roots in the summer. I've got significant losses in taxable accounts. Is there any point in hanging on to this one or would it be better to take the loss and move on to something more promising?

Q: So sorry, I asked this question yesterday but got the stock ticker wrong! It's not Winpak that I am interested in, it is Winmark on the nasdaq code
I'm thinking of investing in this company. Considering the slow down in the economy, consumer high debt in Canada and possible upcoming recession, I think this is one of the few consumer discretionary companies that might not be too affected. Your thoughts on this company, please. They are consignment stores.Many thanks for your great service! Jen

Q: QST reported quarterly and annual numbers this morning. What is your take? Annual was strong but quarter seemed to lag a bit. Key is the future. Does their 7-10 million 2019 Capex bode well? Would you be a buyer now?
