Q: In your answer to Dan today, you rated the desirability of holding stock for a 5 year + period. You show NVEI and MAGT as 8 and KXS as 6. While all three are expected to show good year over year earnings growth the analysts high target price for KXS is $288, up 60% while the high for NVEI is $169, up 30%.
Just looking for your thoughts on what would suggest a higher rating for NVEI and MAGT.
Many thanks
Mike

Q: Leon's pays a regular dividend of $0.16/share/quarter and has also announced a special dividend of $1.25, both effective Sept 08/21 (DOR).

All else being equal, my understanding is that on the ex-div date the share price should drop $0.16 due to the regular dividend. Is the same true for the special dividend....in other words should we expect the share price to drop $1.25 as well?

Thanks...Steve

Q: What do you think of this company? Seems cheap to me. They aggressively position themselves for further growth through M&A. Would you buy? Currently own AAPL
In a second question, If AAPL was to build an electric car wouldn't you think that HNHPF would have a chance to partner somehow? Are there some hints from APPL management that they will eventually move to electric cars? Lots of rumors but any words from AAPL ?
Thank you.

Q: Hi Team,

I have owned IPL for 18 years now and have incurred a loss over that period. Regarding the purchase of this company by Brookfield Infrastructure; if I accept their offer (cash/stock etc.) am I still able to claim my loss as a capital loss even though in my mind no real disposition has taken place? I cannot find succinct enough information on this in order to make my decision.

Thank you so much,
Dean
