Investment Q&A

Q: Hi guys
I have held Lassonde for a long time and done very well, but the past year has not been kind to the stock price. And then there is this recent profit warning. I have not issue being patient if this is a blip but wonder whether this is the start of a trend with trade issues and people turning away from fruit juices. Your thoughts on this profit warning and this company going forward. By the way thank you so very much for bringing CSU to my attention as it has gone up exponentially since your recommendation many years ago. I harvested a bit of my profits today to bring the holding back to 5%.
Thanks
Stuart

Q: Do you see any reason for the large decrease in share

price for Reliq after naming an advisory board ?

Q: With recent happenings on ATZ would you consider this a buy, sell, or hold point now?? It would seem that company fundamentals are still good so would you expect share value to bounce back and even improve since ATZ is buying back many of their own shares??

Q: Hi Team,

Q: My last Crius Energy dividend was paid January 15th for shares recorded on Dec. 31. Will the final June 17 dividend be for five months to May 31 ( unless the deal closes earlier)?.
Today's bump was a nice surprise. If the other bidder folds, is there a chance the price will revert to $7.57 or is $8.80 a solid bid?
Thanks.

Q: Is viavi, the old JDSU, at the forefront of 5G? Lots of good news from the company and the stock hit a new high today. When they split into two companies, Lumentum did great but Viavi went nowhere. How are they positioned now?

Q: Hi team,

This is my first non-tech question in quite a while. I try to balance my tech stocks with some names in other sectors. CF came to my attention today from a TD report. It is on one of my watch lists but I haven’t followed it closely in a couple of years. TD gives it a Buy, Higher Risk rating with a target of $9.50 although I don’t find target prices very meaningful. Part of their rationale is CF’s recent purchase of U.S.-based advisory firm Petsky Prunier, who focus on mid-market segments and have a growing presence in the cannabis space for IPOs and mergers in the U.S. CF itself seems to have a strong presence in cannabis deals in Canada and potentially internationally. The cannabis segment is here to stay, regardless of the high valuations. I am not a weed guy as such, but if CF can continue to grab a good chuck of these deals, it may bode well for it.

What are the pros and cons of an investment in CF at this time? I notice you gave it a B- in your Company report last August, which is not a strong grade, but perhaps things have changed.

Thanks again.
Dave

Q: you renently answered a question regarding a comparison between Bershire and the S&P. Am I right in concluding from that answer that you do not see an advantage in owning Brkb.us over say, VOO?
thanks

Q: Recently you stated "We find it a bit interesting today. Management is under the gun to show it did the right thing by fighting the HSE takeover attempt. " My impression of the CEO interview on BNN last Friday was they are focusing on debt reduction with no intention of production increase. I'm pretty sure your not "a bit interested" because you expect a jump in the price of oil , management has indicated no production increase, I'm curious as to your rationale here?

Q: Great News to holders that waited
Vistra Energy (VST-N) has agreed to increase its acquisition price for Crius Energy Trust (KWH.UN-T) to $8.80 per trust unit, an increase of $1.23 per trust unit from the parties’ prior agreement.
“Vistra and Crius Energy negotiated the amendment in response to the receipt by the Crius Energy Board of Directors of an unsolicited acquisition proposal from a third party bidder dated Feb. 14, 2019 that was higher than the purchase price previously agreed by Vistra and Crius Energy,” the company stated.
