Investment Q&A

Q: Did TSG screw up with their purchase of Sky Betting?

I ask because I wonder if the money would have been better spent partnering with major North American Sport Leagues instead? I can see a future (I hear this is the case with European football) where watching sports becomes more interactive with in-game betting or fantasy sports that is integrated and live as I watch. This could be through an enhanced subscription. How awesome would it be from my television remote to bet how many home runs will be scored in a game, inning, player, etc? With other gaming companies signing exclusive agreements I'm sure such scenarios will be channeled through their gaming products as opposed to The Stars Group.

Q: Hi,
My question is regarding the EFN.PR.C preferreds. Are they worth holding onto considering the overall company situation? My goal here is to protect capital at this point for this particular account.
Your take on these things is always appreciated.

Q: What are your thoughts on square's recent earnings?

Q: What were the main factors that drove TSGI's stock price from April to its high in June? And what has now been the main reason for its decline? Has anything fundamentally changed? I see that Poker, its largest revenue source actually declined in comparison to Q3 2017. Is this a big concern, or is most of it's expected growth to come from gaming/betting? Is there hope that when/if most States legalize online gambling that TSGI will earn more much revenue from this?

Q: in my portfolio , I have bns 20%,bce20% ipl10% enb10% ad10% and 30% cash. after this pullback , should I invest more in these holdings or go into a different sector , I need income as retirement is coming . thx Jack.

Q: Your thoughts on GSY recent quarter? This seems to be an extremely well run company...
• 34th consecutive quarter of same store sales growth
• 69th consecutive quarters of positive net income
• Compound annual growth in diluted earnings per share of 37.0% since 2001

Looking at the outlook for 2019 and 2020, revenue growth drops from (26% - 28%) in 2018, to (20% - 22%) in 2019 and (14 - 16%) in 2022 (they do note ROE will increase each year). Is this a concern? or is it just the reality of a company getting older or are they just being conservative. Last years Q3 2017 outlook was (16% ‐ 18% for 2018) (14% ‐ 16% in 2019) and (10% ‐ 12% in 2020) so they certainly beat 2018 expectations and have increased 2019 and 2020 since last years outlook.

Q: Hi Everyone at 5i! I am looking to pick up a growth stock in my TFSA. Would SQ or NEWR be a good candidate? Thank you, Tamara

Q: Is Trevali 3rd quarter result as bad as it appears ?

Q: Hi,

I am observing SYZ break out nicely this week. (and btw- thanks to 5i for its coverage of this company). I am curious if you would want to comment on the company at this time. I assume you would maintain at least a B- rating. The trading volume remains low, but perhaps it is becoming a bit more visible and may attract analyst coverage. Thanks for your opinion. Jim,

Q: can u pls comment on their earnings and what should we look forward to with this company? txs as always...

it looks like many hedge funds in q2 at least had bought into tsgi. is that a underlying bullish sign even as the company gets slapped around?
