Q: Hi 5i - with homeowners attempting to renew mortgages at much higher rates in the next year or two (e.g. going from a 2% fixed rate to 6.5% fixed rate - possible foreclosures, etc), how much risk do you see regarding a housing crash and the resulting risk with Canadian banks? Thanks, Neil

Q: I have bought stock in these Canadian banks, TD, Royal and BMO. How badly can these Canadian banks be hurt by their purchases of US assets? I was going to layer into these positions, would it be prudent to hold off?

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,
A couple of somewhat related questions:
I'm curious about the 'expression of interest' someone (or some thing) may have made known to CTS management in the past while. Would a potential purchaser be allowed a peek at the quarterly numbers before they were released yesterday in furtherance of its due diligence research, or have to await the release like the rest of us? My guess is the former, tied to a confidentiality agreement, but I'm not sure if that's the case with a publicly traded company.
And, also wondering: if the numbers were decent - as I thought they were - and no purchase deal gets announced quite soon, is it safe to assume there's likely nothing brewing? Or is it all just a black box until something - anything - is formally announced?
Thanks!
Peter

Q: Hi 5i,
TRP executive team members seem to have little direct ownership in the stock but a significant amount of out of the money options for compensation. It looks like CEO bought stock on recently but do you think the executive team has much skin in the game? Can I get your high level thoughts on whether this might be a high quality income stock as well as a good entry price?
thanks
