Investment Q&A

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

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.

Q: July 22, 2016 - Question Asked by Hector:

x_dividend: The answer given assumes a zero day settlement. A buy on the 16'th with a 1 day settlement
will settle on 17th (the x-dividend date)? Not sure what the settlement days duration is but its not zero.

Q: I would be thankful for your comment on the long-term growth prospects of PAR Technology symbol PAR.us (on NYSE). It looks to be a possibly good candidate for takeover by a better capitalized strategic buyer in the same industry . At its present size PAR would have difficulty combating competitive forces. Is management under pressure from cash-burn (that you can tell) such that they might be pushed to look for a buyer ?

Q: I am considering the purchase of Milestone. It appears that its revenue and distributions are in $US. Could you advise if this complicates matters in terms of tax and what type of account (RRSP or taxable) would be preferred to hold the security? Would the discount brokerage convert the US distribution to CDN and would they usually charge a fee for this?

Thanks as always
