Q: Hello,

After GOOG does their split - do you think the demand/trading volume for the CDR will dry up?

And in a worst case scenario that likely will never happen - if the CDR winds up and liquidates....would the holders get cash returned or would they receive proportional equivalent of US listed GOOG?

thank you and have a great weekend.

Q: Hi Folks,
just wondering if ATVI would be good to buy at this price. I understand that MSFT is offering $95 to buy them with the deal closing in 2023. Do you see the potential for the Feds to nix the deal? A $15 dollar premium until the deal goes through looks pretty good right now ? Your opinion is greatly appreciated.

Q: Ah Paypal, by far the worst holding in my portfolio that ive held on to far too long despite a significant capital loss. I was initially intrigued by the practical application of the technology, its solid profitability and what i was sold as a good growth story with good room for revenue/profit expansion. Is it fair to say that these is totally broken? I would be very grateful for any insights you have into the current state of this company and whether you think its time to move on even though its held in a registered account.

Q: Moving money from a poor performer to a better performer, talking about AFRM and U - both I could not find in your database when I tried to search them. I was going to move them to more better performers in the case of CRWD and NVDA. That should be a better place. I am north of 70 so waiting 5 years for these 2 to recover may not be an option here. Another 2 that one day they are up 10% and the next day they are down 10% - CELH and UPST. Are there any issues that have surfaced lately about the four mentioned securities thanks

Q: Hello 5i
We're curious about FLX (formerly FLOT)

Held since 2018Dec it was up ~2.85% including Interest pmts at 2021Dec31
Since then it has further dropped and we are now down ~2.0% (including interest pmts)
Would appreciate your opinion whether this is due to the change in its
investment objective introduced in December, or is it more related to the market
scenario since then.

Would you recommend holding or exchange for some safer bond ETF ?
If the latter could you please provide a couple of examples

Thanks for your guidance.

Q: Do you feel loblaws is getting over valued.
I was surprised it is still only has pe of 20 times.
Is that traditionally high for a grocery stock. Is the price finally catching up to the fundamentals or is this a place of safety where people are hiding out till things settle down.
I have owned for years and wondering if i should take alittle off the table.
It still is at a comfortable weight in my portfolio as it didnt do much for the first 5 years that i owned the stock.

Q: Hi 5i
Three questions if that's OK, points to be deducted accordingly:

1. What's the best site to find dates on which quarterly reports will be released along with estimates for the upcoming quarter?

2. Could you identify 2 or 3 small to mid cap O&G producers that you would recommend now (not including TVE or WCP) along with a thumbnail sketch as to why for each?

3. What are your thoughts about FRU for income and cap gain over the 12 months or so?

Thanks!
