Q: Hi, could you please comment on Boyd Group earnings release. Thanks
Q: For your info
However, Enbridge could face some other problems in Michigan. The newly elected governor Gretchen Whitmer has voiced opposition to the aging Line 5 pipeline, yet another aging pipeline that ferries oil from Alberta, through Michigan, to refineries across the border back in Canada. The current governor, Rick Snyder, reached a deal with Enbridge in early October, which would require Enbridge to encase the pipeline in a cement tunnel to prevent any leaks. Such an endeavor could cost as much as $500 million and take seven to ten years to build.
Whitmer has suggested she would seek the closure of Line 5 before it can be replaced, a move that would put a further dent in Alberta’s takeaway capacity. Line 5 is 65 years old and carries 540,000 bpd.

Q: Hi 5i research team,
Could you comment on AJX quarterly results. There is not many analysts following the company, so no solide consensus to compare results to. I found them a little disappointing. AJX barely generated a profit out of the first complete quarter of the largest contract of its history (more than 1x annual revenue). Management mentioned several items that lessen my optimism in AJX ever becoming sustainably profitable: industry softness, low price of crop, investing in R&D, capitalisation of development costs, without the sale of Outback cash would have decreased yoy. Also, could you comment on trading since the end of march (announcement of the large contract): initially heavy sellers at 0,90$, and most recently at 0,86$, while « anonymous » has been buying almost 75% of volume since the end of march. Could something be in preparation? Or, are these results saying: it is time to sell, because it is becoming clearer that AJX is hopeless?
Thank you for your collaboration, Eric

Q: I have a question about LIF.
In the OUTLOOK section of their 3Q press release the company commented.....In its press release dated June 18, 2018, the LIORC Board indicated its intention to call a special meeting of shareholders to approve amendments to the articles of incorporation to, among other things, allow the corporation to invest in other mining royalties. While the immediate opportunity referred to in the press release remains a possibility, the Board has decided to defer the calling of the meeting.
You commented to a previous question that the takeover chatter on LIF is ongoing....with the above comment in their Outlook is the ongoing takeover chatter excellerating? do you have insight into who is speculated to take them out and what might be a friendly price? Thanks

Q: I had a half position in Loblaws before the Weston spinout, so now I have a tiny position in Wn. I'd welcome your thoughts as to how best to proceed. Do I dump Wn and build L to a full position or fill out Wn to a second half position?
(Supplemental info: If you looked at my full portfolio, you would likely say I am rather long on banks and utilities and short on consumer stocks, though I do have some ATD.b and ADW.a. However, I am about to retire, so I am keen on fairly reliable dividends.)

Q: Hi there,
Is it time to sell of ARX? I bought it at $20 appx in early 2018 and its now at $10.xx?
It has a 13% weighting in my portfolio right now and it's just been a laggard.
Thanks!

Q: NRZ.us (New Residential). I have a loss on this holding. Share price has been more volatile lately. Although I subscribe to some premium data services , I have not been able to determine (not for sure) whether private placement(s) --- shares and/or debt--- depressed NRZ’ share price. Is this company a reasonably good holding based on what Bloomberg gives for : PEG ratio, Debt levels , ttm and forward P/E and dividend sustainability ? Would you surmise from your terminal whether or not NRZ.us has reasonably good prospects? Although I have checked data on sites I subscribe to, I am getting different data and differing ratios for trailing and forward P/E , debt to equity, and whether share or debt issues actually took place within the last month or two.
Q: Years ago I used to use liquid options on the TSE35 Index, but have been frustrated in finding a modern day equivalent for today's main Toronto Index.
I'm thinking there must be something available to at least partially match
the huge liquidity provided by the SPY options for the S&P 500, but have
so far never been able to find a Toronto Index alternative.
Thanks so much!

Q: Hi 5i,
Thanks for the reply to my previous question on USD etfs. I had also asked "What percentage weighting would you have for more growth, medium to high risk tolerance and long term hold ?" The etfs in question are QQQ, VOO or HXS, IPAY and IWO.
Thanks as always.

Q: Should I hold on to NFI or sell, as the share price is dropping.
Q: What do you think of Yangarra today?
Q: Good morning 5i Team
NFI share price peaked in late March and has been been dropping since. The slide has accelerated since the Q3 report. Having read the report and listened to the call, I can't figure out what is causing such a sharp selloff. Here are four things that are noteworthy but still don't justify it in my mind:
1) new manufacturing plants (increased competition in the future)
2) Slightly lower backlog
3) Revelation that for every 10 new units sold, NFI typically takes 7 units in trade, and the re-sale value of trade-ins is declining, hurting margins.
4) Today's news (that the market has probably known for over a month) that 70 jobs will be moving to the US to accommodate the 70% US content rules.
I guess a fifth would be the overall market decline.
I've been watching NFI looking for an entry point. This looks like a good time but I feel that I must be missing something here. I would appreciate your thoughts before I pull the trigger.
Thanks. As always, your insights and guidance is much appreciated.
Peter

Q: In a previous answer today, you said you would be ok start a postion but not adding to it. How do you come with that ? If its under a 1 % of your total portfolio, doesnt that matter? this was a praised stock at $120 and it doesnt seem like much has changed.

Q: On Saturday there was a press release regarding the results of a heart drug study and the share price of the company has bombed today. The results noted appeared positive to me however I am not an expert on the drug study details. Do you know why there is such a drastic adverse reaction to the Amarin stock price?
