Q: Would you update Knight;s share count following their buyback announced this summer? How many shares and floating shares are now outstanding?
Once they complete the purchase, do you think they will do a financing if they can get the share price back above ten dollars to finance possible future deals with their new company or possibly continue to pursue other deals.
Finally, how much cash will they be left with once they spend the $369M?
Thank you - very excited to see this deal!

Q: I understand that Softbank's WeWork troubles might require it to unload some of its Guardant Health stake, but: shouldn't this be priced-in (to Guardant's share price) by now? Or are the details of Softbank's response to WeWork so all-over-the-place that nobody can guesstimate the collateral damage? Or has Guardant's decline put it in an end-of-year tax-loss vortext, such that it doesn't matter, now, what Softbank does?

Q: Does ALA still own 37% of ACI? If so, I would it would appear that ALA will do quite well on today's announced sale of ACI - your comments are much appreciated re: ALA exceeding current years sales target and debt position after the sale. Thank you.

Q: I own all three of these Brookfield companies BAM.A, BIP, and BEP at 1.23%, 0.86% and 1.08% weightings respectively (total 3.18%). I am a long term growth investor. From previous questions, I think it's okay to own all three correct and there is not much overlap. If I were to maintain a 4-5% weighting total in these companies, how would you weight each for maximum capital appreciation? Thanks!

Q: Good morning 5i. I have held GUD for 5 years hoping for a good deal. My weighting is now half of my full weight now. With this deal with Biotoscana now should I double up or wait to see what the market does? It is early Monday morning before the market opens.
Thanks for keeping me patient and on track with GUD. It's been a frustrating road.

Q: Happy Monday.. I just wanted to thank you for advising us to be cautious on the marijuana sector for the past two years. I know you took some heat as they were going up for not recommending the stocks in the sector but it really looks like the party is over now with HEXO, TRST, TGOD and all the other problem companies. It is hard to believe that after the investment banker frenzy some companies are having a hard time now financing growth. Anyway, thank you.

Q: Hi,
I've owned ONEX in the past but currently don't have any exposure to private equity and I'm looking to get back into this space. Should an average long term growth investor have some exposure to this asset class? Looking to make PE 3-5% of my total portfolio. Can you rank the mentioned stocks from best to worst and which ones are best for long term growth and capital appreciation. Any other suggestions or advice would be welcome. Thanks!

Q: Wondering if you have any info/thoughts on the lawsuits (current and future) re BA and the Max issue. Specifically, I anticipate that the airlines which fly the Max will be suing Boeing for lost revenue/extra costs as they compensate for not having the Max fleet in the air (more lawsuits once the return to service date is determined (if returned to service). I read more and more airlines are planning to not use the Max until Jan/Feb 2020 pending FAA approval. Still considerable uncertainty. Essentially a question on the impact of future lawsuits from major airlines.
