Q: Last April United Technologies became Raytheon and spun off Carrier and Otis. Initially Revenue Canada (CRA) deemed the Carrier and OTIS spin-off values as 100% taxable (incredible I know) as opposed to a 50% taxable capital gain. I know this is not your area of expertise but I'm sure many of your members were affected due to the sheer size of UTX. Do you know if the CRA ruling has been changed or is it still 100% taxable?

Q: Hello Peter, Ryan and Team,

I've been reading more about Sprout Social, and the idea of social media management sounds like a valuable corporate service for the current and future times. Can you give a little detail about how you see it as a potential higher-risk play? The share price has certainly rocketed up since the IPO, and I'm undecided about whether to wait for a pullback (if there is one) or jump in and hope the momentum continues. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you. Brad

Q: Hi 5i team,
There are a ton of 5G companies that you mention from time to time. One that comes up less frequently is MRVL. MRVL had a virtual investor day today, which I attended, but kept it on in the background. A number of executives gave their views on their major markets, technology and growth rates, which as expected was all positive. The stock traded up for a while but then faded. I did not pay that close attention but was not overly impressed with the day. What say you on MRVL and what is the real point of investor days if there is nothing that noteworthy?
Thanks again for the insight.
Dave
