Q: Hi 5i, David's Tea has released results. Please provide comments on their results and especially where they indicate they may undertake a formal restructuring if they are not successful in negotiations with landlords. What would a restructuring mean to the common shareholders? Would management be obligated to give shareholders a fair equity value in the Newco?

Q: What, if any, impact to Primo do you see from Nestle's announced explorations into getting out of the water business in N America? During the Cott-to-Primo business transition, Primo's financial statements are rather more difficult to digest, but at the very least, Primo doesn't seem to have the capability to buy much of the Nestle water business. What other companies might benefit from Nestle's divestiture, and how might that affect Primo?
Deduct credits as required for multiple questions. Thanks.

Q: Good day team, question re Covered Call ETF vs non. I've set up my daughters TFSA with CDZ & ZWH as a starting base. In an earlier question you mentioned covered call (ZWH) may reduce upside. Acknowledging this; does covered call also offer additional protection though (from large downward swings for eg). If so, I'm ok forgoing additional upside.

Q: Re Fred’s question about longterm gains on RY
canadastockchannel.com has this info
If bought on Jan4, 2000, $1 worth of RY would be worth $12.46
assuming dividends are re-invested on a tax free basis (ex. RRSP)
If dividends are not re-invested, on a total return basis (including dividends, but still no tax paid) your $1 is worth $8.75.
You can enter different dates to get exactly what you want.
I personally find this type of analysis instructive but I know not everyone is a fan.
