Q: For the most part off the top of your head, can you provide a list of highly regarded Canadian companies with oversized eps growth expected from 2018 to 2019.

A few to get us started, in my opinion, include...
WSP - 2018 eps = $3.11; 2019 eps = $3.79; 22% eps growth
PBH - 2018 eps = $4.08; 2019 eps = $5.34; 31% eps growth
PKI - 2018 eps = $1.56; 2019 eps = $2.69; 72% eps growth
KXS - 2018 eps = $0.99; 2019 eps = $1.34; 34% eps growth

Thanks.

John

Q: I am negatively surprised at the proposed sale announcement today, as a fairly large shareholder of IRG. The price of both Companies are trading down, which would indicate not all is well. To take 80% of MTY stock, how do they determine at what share price? Why would they have a no solicitation clause with MTY? Should the objective not be to maximize shareholder value and properly seek bidders? Your comments would be appreciated.

Q: Howdy! The Kiki Delaney chapter in "Market Masters" has inspired me to invest more in Quebec-based equities. I already have BCE, CAE, CNR & GUD. Please rank the top 3 in this list (or other Quebec-based equities that I didn't list) to add right now purely on long-term (3-5 yrs) appreciation (value + dividends).
Thank you,

Q: I own MG and MTY in consumer cyclicals and contemplating adding another name among GIL, RCH, ZZZ or CTC.A. Please order them from best to worst as a solid complement to the two I already have, as part of an RRSP account with a 15+ years time frame. Please give a brief rationale and suggest another company if there is an obvious better choice. I note that the stock value of RCH is surprisingly stable on multi-year charts for a c. cyclical.

Q: I have been looking to add ZZZ for a while now. The stock price has declined since earnings and I have decided to start a position. My portfolio consists of 25 stocks and since I do not want to increase this number I have to find a company to swap out. While I have done pretty well on MTY I feel the long term trend of online shopping and decline of big department stores will eventually hurt food court sales. Do you have any comments on if a switch to ZZZ from MTY is needed? Would you agree that ZZZ has greater long term potential?

Thanks
