I have held a position on ITP for a few years now and currently up by about 35%. I am thinking of replacing ITP with CCL.B. Can I please have your comments on this move?

Q: In regards to Austins question,the two split shares above will quit paying a dividend on the common shares when the Nav for the common shares plus the preferred drops below $15.00.you can keep track of the Nav on their website.Dgs has been by far my best income stock,buying in for an average $6.94,gives me an annual return of 17.3% on original purchase.Present Nav. is $17.30 according to Brompton's
website.DFN pays a lower dividend,but has a bigger cushion in it's NAV.I think these are excellent vehicle for income as long as you keep track of the NAV value!!

Q: Good Morning,
Napec received a takeover offer yesterday @ $1.95/share. The stock is trading at or slightly above the proposed takeover price. Do you have any comments or thoughts. Would you advise selling shares now or waiting to see if a competing bid comes in.
Thanks,
Philip

Q: Hello 5i!
Can you explain the Cognex stock split to me?
Specifically: "Cognex Corp - ‍board approved a two-for-one split of company’s common stock, payable in form of a stock dividend"
I understand the usual two for one but what about the "payable in the form of a dividend"?
Thank you
Dave​

Q: Just a comment about the 'dot-com bubble' worry, if I may. I remember that there was a legitimate craze happening at that time. Any company that had a .com at the end of its name took off to astronomical prices based on nothing - no revenue, no customers, no book value. The tech companies we're talking about now are real, and it looks to me like they're riding a secular wave of demand for computing power related to real growth areas like AI, data centers, machine learning, virtual reality, and cloud computing. Granted, this won't last forever, and it's an open question as to how long they can grow at current rates, but at least you're not investing in thin air like the crowd was doing back in the 00's.

Q: Since your last comment a month ago, there has been a flurry of news including several new purchase orders, a solid earnings release and this morning, FCC and IC approval for their In-vehicle cellular device. With this in mind, I would appreciate an update. While acknowledging that it still has a small market cap, is there potential for SIM to become a candidate for your growth portfolio.?

Thanks as always. Karl

Q: A couple of others do not display above, MKZ.un, BSO, LCS & OSP. Is there a reasonable amount of safety in any of these Very High Di Payers? If a stock pays a Dividend > 8%....who cares if there is NO appreciation, as long as risk is limited.

Thanks as always!
