Q: I noticed about $16 million in insider sales at TOY in the last couple days. Could you comment on the amounts sold relative to the amounts held, and the action in general? It appears 4 insiders sold - how many "insiders" are there?
Thank-you
Thank-you
Q: Dear Team,
I realize that you like the stock. However, ZCL doesn't appear to 'act' very well aside from the fact that markets are down. The potential is there but the follow through seems to fizzle.
What is your view? Would you have a recommendation for another stock in this category?
Thanks!

Q: Any change in your views on WPRT? Thank you.
Q: Trading quite weak recently. Oil has come off a few bucks, the market a bit weak too but.....feels like the solid fundamentals everyone refers too aren't reflected in the stock price. Value trap or opportunity? Best guess as to why its trading weak?
Q: I currently hold DHX in an RrESP account which I will be winding down over the next 4 years. The stock has come back nicely over the last little while and wonder if this momentum will continue or weather I should take this opportunity to exit. This stock was originally purchased for capital appreciation given the low dividend.
Thank you.
Maggie

Q: Do you have any insights into Smart Sand versus Fairmont Santrol.
The price has dropped significantly and usage of sand within the industry is falling at this point in time. Is Smart Sand highly leveraged or do they have a good balance sheet and will survive ...... maybe it's time to add to my position.
Thanks DAN

Hello, This question is out of your scope but I would appreciate your thoughts. This stock is down about~ 10% due to the resignation of CEO. This is a solid company and has revolutionised IT and has made a huge impact on India. I am wondering if this is a good time to start a small position. Can you look at the financias and give me your thoughts. Thanks. Regards, Shyam

Q: Ever since Intrinsyc released its lackluster Q2 report (but with a positive outlook) insider buyer from the Company's CEO and a director has increased rather significantly. Is this a reliable indicator of what is to come in future results?
Q: Hello, ABT is down by more than 5% this morning. Is this because of the latest financial results? Is there something wrong with these results? On another subject, I know you like MX, is the company's debt acceptable in your view? Regards, Gervais
Q: Kindly critique the ABT results released last night after closing. I'm interested in particular its forward prospect. Thanks.
Q: Good morning...I have a balanced portfolio and have additional cash to deploy...I basically own more or less 5i covered stocks...currently out of ENB, ATD.B, New Flyer, SHOP, CSU..would you add to? Also OTEX which I am holding but currently down (18%) would you add at this point..

Q: Can you recommend a free method of finding insider ownership as a percentage? I haven't seen this in Google Finance, TMX, or Morningstar. Some of them show insider activity and TMX it can be added to a stock screen but I don't see it in specific stocks info.
Q: Hello, I am thinking of lightening up on SHOp where I am almost at 9% and buying AAPl as a replacement where I already have a half position. I would appreciate your thoughts on this. I am not quite sure why Apple is raising money in the form of bonds..while it has a lot of cash.

Q: Hi Peter and group: I am interested in the above noted ETF for an approximate 3% holding in my RRSP. I think you touched on this ETF recently, but am wondering if you could shed further light as regards volatility, expense ratio, (seems very high at 2.2%) and overall risk. My risk tolerance is moderate and the hold would be for several years. I also currently hold ZWH, ( 6 %) in my RRSP for U.S. exposure .
Thanks for the great service

Q: Hi Team,
Following a question about Canadian and US health care sector opportunities, I am trying compare and contrast IBB (iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF) with XBI (SPDR S&P Biotech ETF). I realize the former focuses on large companies and has more concentrated positions in top holdings while the latter focuses on small companies with a more even distribution of holdings. What are your thoughts about a risk/return trade off between the two ETFs and what timeframe would you be considering to hold either one for an investment thesis to pan out? If you had to pick one, which would it be and why?
Many thanks, Michael
