Q: Hi team,
I like SQ and I know it is one of your favourites. It had a big sell-off, with all other tech, but now has the CFO leaving. I always liked Sarah Friar as I thought she was a real driving power behind SQ. To me, she is not just your everyday CFO. She knew what to say to the markets. For example, she would tone down Dorsey when he went too far over the top on crypto transactions earlier the year. As you know, Dorsey is also CEO of TWTR and splits his time half and half between SQ and TWTR. The market was not overly concerned with this arrangement as long as Friar was there for SQ. With a weaker management team now and given the TWTR onus also on Dorsey, does this temper your outlook for SQ?
Thanks again,
dave

Q: Good morning
Based on current climate and uncertainty, I started to liquidate some holding or at least profits over the last few weeks....about 30% cash...however, I would like to place some cash in income producing stocks (REIT/XHY) or other such stable stocks...I fully understand we are in volatile market..but was wondering which you would recommend 5 or 6 names for income with what we would be considered less volatile in this environment..+4%..yields...when things settle will deploy back into my core holdings...thanks

Q: What is your view of Richelieu latest quarterly results?

Q: Your Income Portfolio is sitting on 10% cash. I know you are not keen on both a) holding cash and b) market timing. Question 1 = what is your rationale for holding this amount of cash? Q2 = what are your plans and timing for reducing the cash component?

Thanks for your great service...Steve

Q: Good morning. Which stocks are most tempting to you this morning? Or, in your seasoned opinion does this sell off have more steam and maybe holding for a bit before buying might be best? Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter & team,
What do you think of the deal with IPCO? Supposedly it represents an aquisition of $1.85/share of PXX....but it's only at ~ 1.50. This is my son's stock and he has a 55% loss even at 1.50 price. Would you sell? Should it get to 1.85?
Thanks!

Q: Given current valuation of US market, from risk/reward perspective I wonder if European market is more attractive to invest (Brexit impact?)If yes, which sector or names you recommend, are there any etfs (I prefer hydged to CAD)?

Thanks,
