Q: What is your top 5 Canadian buys in order at today's price for each
Small cap
Mid cap
Large cap

Thank you

Q: Could you provide an update on insider buying for Goeasy? In the past they seemed to personally get behind the stock.
Also, what does your gut say about the security of that 5.5% dividend? Are they over-leveraged or is there another key metric that could indicate things are a bit shakey? Thank you

Q: This question is more of a question on my method of reasoning... I have three what I consider " speculative " positions in my RRIF . SLVO a 3.85% position, GDXY an 11.1% position and GSY which has fallen 40% in price and is now a 4.25% position .... The first two I feel qualified to monitor world events and see the signs of selling. I'm in at a $3000 price of gold and bought SLVO at the same time ..... GSY is what concerns me . My reasoning is that though GSY reports on March 25 it is PRL that will swing the scales on March 2 ... { please correct me if I am wrong on those dates } .... I see the following scenarios .....

1} PRL beats the numbers and is either flat or a modest rise . GSY does the same .

2} PRL doesn't beat the numbers and drags GSY down with it . As both are in the dog house I'm thinking a lot .....

3} GSY once dropping below $100 drops like a stone ....

From a risk reward point of view please critique my reasoning and if it might be prudent to get out of Dodge before March 2nd ?
Thanks for your terrific service ......

Q: Hi 5I. I would like to consolidate this mixed bag into one or two holdings. Would you please rank them in order of "sell" to "keep".

Q: Hi Guys

With all the bank earnings out, and the conference calls occurring, did you get a sense on how credit worthiness is doing? How were banks provisioning for loan losses? Thinking of Propel and Goeasy and whether they will get through this cycle just fine?

Thanks Stuart

Q: Hi Guys

I hold Stantec and WSP and looking to add to one. Looking out 5 years would you have a favorite today?

Thanks Stuart

Q: Hi Group in what order highest risk first please. (particularly worried tech stocks) and where we go from here??... buy, sell, hold..) plse give me you thought on sectors at most risk going fwd

Q: The company has set a release date of earnings as of March 25th. That is more than a month past the normal date.
What maybe causing the delay? This release has the stock down 7 %.
Do you expect the price to fall further?
Is GSY a buy, sell or hold? What might be good buy price?
Thank you

Steve

Q: I see that GSY stock to a big drop today. The stock is now reaching a very strong support level at about $100. Is this now a buying opportunity? Is it better to wait for the Q4 results?
Thanks John.

Q: Hi team,
Is gsy tanking today from trumps tariff uncertainty? Or is the late earnings date release now of concern? Many growth names are again in free fall today I am assuming must of it is back to trade uncertainty and again software sell off.

Thanks

Shane

Q: I am seeking to increase my international exposure and financials. What do you think of this company at this current price? To what extent are current metrics comparable to other financials such as PRL or GSY? It is significantly lower than the IPO price and the prospects for growth has not disappeared. Buy, Sell, Hold? If a buy, would you recommend buying a third, half, or full position?

Q: I thought Goeasy reported. If so, may I have your comments on earnings please

Q: If GSY had completed any share buybacks in January would these have been reported in the regulatory findings by now?

Q: GSY has yet to announce Q4 earnings release date, whereas in past years earnings have been released on ~ Feb 11th. Lack of an earnings date means it’s still another two weeks out. Should one interpret this as a sign management does not have their house in order or worse?

Q: I hold all four of these financials.
The Bank stocks are performing well while GSY and PRL are not,
All are in the lending business. I would appreciate your explanation
of this difference other than the type of borrower they serve given economic concerns.
Thank you
John

I was thinking of adding on Shops earning drop or Csu .
