Q: I have a small position in Rocky Mountain Dealerships. I saw recently a regular increase in value. Since I now make a small profit, I would like to know if I should keep it or change for something else. What would be the benefits and the perspectives of keeping it? and if you think that it would be preferable to change for something else having more value, what would be your suggestions for replacement?

Q: On Dec.1 NFI announced the purchase of ARBOC which from what I understand is a competitor of BUS. I have been looking to buy BUS for a while and have been waiting for a pull back like this, I also see some insiders stepping in to buy here, I am thinking part of the sell off is possibly due to maybe some pre knowledge of this takeover by NFI. Do you think this takeover will or could have much of an adverse effect on BUS ability to sustain growth growing forward and would you consider an investment in BUS at this time as part of a portfolios small cap component at maybe an overall 2% portfolio position?

thanks Tom

Q: I have a follow up question to your reply on a question earlier today on Photon:
" PHO has just broken out to a new high on good volume. Typically, this would not be a good time to sell after such a good move. There are no guarantees, of course, and it will fluctuate a lot, but we would view it as a 3 to 5 year position."

What are realistic expectations of returns for holding for his time, how do monitor the results and what flags do you/we look for if the growth is not working?

Thanks

Q: Good Afternoon,
Are you guys satisfied with their results? Looks like EPS was flat but they have a good 5 year average growth rate of about 25%. Do you expect this EPS growth rate to continue? If they earn $0.08/share this year and grow earnings at 25%/year for the next 5 years they will earn say $0.25/share apply a multiple of 25-30 gets us to $6.25-$7.50. I'm just trying to quantify where your expectations are for this company over the next few years. They have a good cash position so hopefully won't have the need to issue equity over the next few years.
Thank-you

Q: Will the closing of Sears (SCC) directly effect any of its rivals?
Hudsons Bay (HBC)
Sleep Country (ZZZ)
Leon’s Furniture Ltd (LNF)

Is there a significant chance for these companies to capitalize on a hole in the market with Sears gone?
