Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi, Ceapro Inc has garnered a lot of attention in recent months, with mentions of Nutragena, J&J and Jennifer Anniston. Stock appeared to have settled around $1.75-$1.80, but after Mr Peter Imhof made it one of his top picks on BNN, last week, it has shot up by another 25% in 3 days. Bob Mcwhirter mentioned on BNN that co. has built a new plant and would need to grow its revenue 10X to justify market expectations priced in the stock. Could you please provide some perspective on this co. and comment if it deserves this valuation and is worth starting a small position? Thanks

Q: While I realize that no one has a crystal ball, do you have any thoughts regarding the possible timing of a possible sale of the company or, if not, a decision not to sell for that matter? I wondered if it might be around the next quarters(August 12 ) results when there may be a better understanding of the impact of Brexit on the company's finances. Or do you think that this might require another quarter or so to sort itself out? Any thoughts on the probability of a sale actually happening? At this time the market seems to be discounting any potential sale!

Q: I note your recent comments on the risks associated with the present contracts for NIF but my understanding from one of the noted brokerages is that the Co has a "break up" value of somewhere between 3.50 and 5.00, which of course is well ahead of the current pricing and worth a wait for this to be realized. Could you comment please. Thank you.

Q: Hi, CCL Industries stock price has stalled lately after touching a high of $249, few months ago. Recent acquisitions, including Checkpoint systems should be positive to its business and profitability should only go up. Even when markets are hitting new highs every day, stock price seems unable to move out of its narrow range although most analysts have price targets between $275-$285. CCL.b is almost 8.5% of portfolio and I am considering scaling it down. What is holding its price performance, in your view? Based on the recent Winpak results and other information/indicators, is it prudent to wait until quarterly results are released or act now to avoid risk of a surprise on the downside? Thanks

Q: You noted recently that CHW was sensitive to interest rates but otherwise was doing well. The share price also looks as though it could be stabilizing so in a rising rate/economic environment how much of a problem are interest rates? I would have thought that lease rates were relatively flexible and could adjust to accommodate the effects of an improving business environment resulting in an overall improvement in profitability. Would you like to revisit this issue? Thank you.
