Q: I have a difficult time differentiating what each of these companies do for lawyers and lenders. How much actual overlap/competition is there?
I see there has been a fair bit of public market selling by REAL directors but then some buying late last week. How large is REAL insiders holdings commitment today compared to the last 5I report?
If there is any overlap/competition of services or perhaps synergies would it make sense for DND to acquire REAL if they could swallow it? Is DND, at 2X REAL’s market cap, large enough to acquire REAL?

Thank You
Clarence

Q: I listened recently to a discussion involving Cathy Wood and the principal of the Van Eck fund. Cathy Wood said that she thinks possibly fifty per cent of the s and p 500 could be negatively affected because they failed to invest in innovation. A bit scary when you own rsp or voo. On the same interview was van Eck, who seemed to agree with her. And partially for this reason they have developed MOAT. He seems to think that with these companies he circumvents the problem. Perhaps this is my reading into his comments. Wondering whether you might think it would be worthwhile to trade out of rsp and voo and into most
Thanks as always

Q: Can you comment on Coherent deciding to walk away from the offer by LITE and to pay a 217M penalty fee. LITE is up substantially since the announcement. Does this mean if the deal had gone forward, it presented serious risk to LITE and the market was relieved the bidding war ended this way? How significant is the 217M fee? How do you rate LITE going forward?

Q: Good day! I will be receiving a large income tax refund in the coming days and will be adding in to my wife's TFSA which already includes positions in ATZ, NVEI, KL, GSY and TRUL. Time horizon of 20+ years affords a healthy appetite for risk. Her others accounts are well-balanced and moderate risk. I'm looking to add 2-3 positions in the above stocks. Please rank in order of preference for a long term hold. I am also open to any other suggestions. Thank you! (Note: I own WELL, XBC, LSPD, GOOS in my own accounts)

Q: Seems like XBC is still in the doghouse and may be for a while, so I'm trying to decide whether to ride it out given the potential, or cut losses and move to something else. Do you have any new information or views following formal release of their earnings on March 25 or the management conference call? Right now, do you consider XBC a buy, hold or sell, and if a buy or hold what would be reasonable to expect going forward in terms of share price recovery and length of time to do so based on the earnings release or what may have been communicated by management during the conference call?

Q: Second question today, I took about a 3% position in this stock for a long term hold, far from the top but still down significantly. March has been volatile and really trending down in recent days. I cannot see any negative news but with earnings coming out on Monday is this a bad news indication or just market impact? Do you continue to like the company's growth prospects? Thank you.
