Q: I own a healthcare company in my portfolio called Craneware PLC. It mostly does business in the US but is listed in London. I know this is not your primary focus but I would like your opinion. It warned on profits and took a 35% haircut last Friday. Do you think the drop was overdone?

Q: I just found your section on "companies." Great site. I am interested in finding dividend and revenue growth for companies. Let's look at Enbridge as an example. You list the 3-year dividend growth as 11.01% and the 5-year dividend growth as 15.88%.
Enbridge currently pays a dividend of $2.96. In 2016 it was $2.12 and in 2014 it was $1.40. These represent growth of 28.38% and 111.43% respectfully.
My question: Is your posting of dividend growth rates an annualized rate? I assume your 3-year dividend growth of 11.01% and 5-year of 15.88% are annualized rates. Am I correct in this assumption?
The same question for revenue growth. You state the 3-year as 10.87% and the 5-year as 5.62%. Are these annualized rates?
Thank you
Michael

Q: Hi Peter, A question was asked about which stocks you see doubling and the answer was that you dont necessarily see a doubling but a potential moving higher of the stock and you mentioned SHOP, KXS etc. Based on past questions you seemed bullish on LSPD. Any reason you did not include LSPD in that list of stocks?

Thanks,
