Can you comment on the news of the loan. Obviously good news. Would you be a buyer here or not?

Q: I have shares in Nvei that I would love to sell - bought at $77. Would you recommend waiting to see if the deal goes through, and if so what happens to the stock? Or in case the deal collapses, what target price might I look for before I sell? Thank you.

Q: Follow up on Bitcoin as an asset.
The price to mine a bitcoin has decreased over the years from about 37,000 dollars to 17,000 dollars. The total number of bitcoins to be mined is supposed to be restricted to a finite number which may be reached this year or next year.
Still the bitcoin value reaches rather extraorbitant values despite not having any asset to back up the value. It apparently may hide a bitcoin owner unless he or she declares its ownership . The legalized ETFs may be more open as to the ownership I presume.
Do you have any comments about the above issues?
I think 50% or more people who invest in bitcoin do not have idea that is a bitcoin.

Q: Analysts, are they are all good, they sure can swing a stock price. I remember a couple of years ago when one of them downgraded a Berkshire owned stock, and Mr. Buffet said the earnings were just fine and the analyst got it wrong. Why do they always have to be right?
Thanks Again

Q: What do you think the probability of a buy out offer is? What do you feel a offer price would be?

Q: I have a terrible affliction for an investor, a non-functioning trigger finger. Now CELH has become my white whale. I even stopped by a CircleK to see the product placement and ask the clerk about sales and target customers. It is behaving like the NVDA of consumer disc, but NVDA has shown its ability to catch up with and blow through it's valuation. According to the company profile for Celcius in your data feed it has far exceeded even the highest analyst's recent price targets. Can you see a realistic probability that Celcius grows into and outstrips it's current valuation? I have read your recent responses but it is starting to make things outdated in a hurry. Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: Good Morning

As a holder of enghouse for over 3 years now and the latest quarter not being that great and being down a little over 50% has the time come to simply sell and move on? And if so do you have a suggestion for a alternate investment?

Q: You have recommended LMN. I am thinking of investing in the company, but it’s stock price keeps declining. Are your aware of any reasons why the stock price is in a down trend. Thanks … Cal

Q: Hey there fellow Canuck,

I bought a good chunk of ENGH yesterday...on the dip.

So, logically, I thought I should get some advice after the fact.

Do you think ENGH can turn it around? Was $32.71 a decent entry point? Will ENGH get past $33? How long might that take? Headwinds? Tailwinds? No winds?

Q: A rumoured private equity buy out? What will that do for the stock. It’s now at $29….at one point was $130.if it happens, how much of a premium do you see in the stock?

Q: I’m interested in investing in 2 of the above O&G producers. I would appreciate 5i’s recommendation and possibly a brief description of reasonings.
Thank you

Q: Hi, Could you please share your thoughts on the recent performance of the stock. LMN stock made a high of $38, just before release of its quarter, but its price has been drifting lower since then, closing at $33 level, within a span of less than 10 days.

The results looked solid, but apparently, there seems to be some concern among investors related to an expense of $2,871 mln (FY 2023), related to the increase in fair value of the redeemable preferred/special shares and dividend payable. LMN also intends to issue new common shares on March 25, 2024 to satisfy
(1) mandatory conversion of the large block of preferred and special shares held by CSU/Others at a predetermined ratio
(2) payment of $87 mln of dividend on these shares and number of such common shares, to be based on average trading price of LMN for 60 days prior to March 25.

My understanding is that the loss related to “Increase in FMV of preferred shares” is only a “Book Loss” and will extinguish completely, with no effect on company profitability (Existing and Future) once the preferred shares are converted to LMN’s subordinate voting shares on March 25.

Thus, the only relevant factor here should be the impending issue of new common shares (How many and the final total o/s shares), which would result in increase of the share count, possibly impacting the Net Income and CFO per share and further elevating the PE ratio.

So, is the market concern justified or it’s more of a sentiment issue, which should resolve itself with more clarity over next few quarters?

Based on your assessment, do you believe that nothing has changed to its mini CSU profile? And if so, is it a good opportunity to take advantage of this uncertainty and to add LMN shares at current level ?

Thank You
