Q: re GPRO.US GoPro Just a comment for Gordon's question of Aug 24th as a long time GoPro user ( and camera enthusiast). The company is very poor at inventory control, lax in their customer service and downright bad at following up on promises. I would stroll down to your local camera shop and see if they actually have any GoPro inventory, of anything but 3rd party accessories! As 5i pointed out, GoPro is a good little product but the larger companies with better supply chains are developing competitive products and I suspect they will eat GoPro's lunch. GoPro seems to be having difficulty "growing up".

Q: Hello 5i team,
I bought shares of THI at $59; how long would I have to wait in order to make a 40% capital appreciation.
Do I wait? Do I sell? do I take some profit?
What a quandary!

Q: CSS Contrans I voted my shares today at CIBC. Actually, it was a choice between a 'take no action' vote or a 'tender your shares' so the call in seems superfluous as I took no action.

Q: I saw your recent response to a question asking for your top energy companies. I was surprised, based on many of your previous answers to questions, that Whitecap(WCP) was not on your list. Has anything changed with respect to your views/expectations on Whitecap in terms of relative valuations particularly with the recent increase in share price, current expected growth,etc.?

Q: Could I have you thoughts on Jason Industries, Inc. (JASN). The company current operations are categorized into 4 distinct industry sectors, Finishing (26%) Seating (24%) Acoustics (30%) Components (20%.) The company seems to have a good management and board. The forward numbers look good and valuations look cheap. I always look forward to reading your posts and hard work. Thank you Jason
