Q: Good Evening
Why is it that only American analysts recommend selling a stock and not Canadian analysts ?
For instance the three analysts that recommend selling Fortis are all American.
Thank you

Q: Assume that you've come across LMN's annual report. You have no idea the name of the company and its attachment to CSU. You area also aware of past metrics, and other numbers - the short history that it has.

Question - based on seeing these numbers, what do you see as a reasonable P/C and P/S valuation (or any other better valuation metric) for this unknown company in an assumed economic slowdown....just roughly. Thanks.

Q: What would be your opinion of the 50 for 1 split to be voted on in June? I know these splits don't change the company but can help generate buzz with more retail investors seemingly able to buy more shares to form a meaningful position. My question would be do you think CMG have the same ability like a TESLA or Netflix which are two I can think of off the top of my head that split and then ran back up towards their previous pre split price.? thanks

Q: WSP is frequently favourably mentioned in the Q & A and its share price has been on a nice run (about 30% in the last 12 months). But at present its P/E is about 50 and its Price / Cash Flow is above 28. Are these matrices somewhat concerning? Apart from J:US (which I also own), do any of its peers look more appealing? Thanks much for your excellent service.

Q: Thanks for your links to retirement planning sites. Just a word of caution, the Canada Life page at https://www.canadalife.com/investing-saving/retirement/preparing-for-retirement/how-to-decumulate-your-assets-in-retirement.html mentions that capital gains in a TFSA are taxable (tax deferred) and capital losses can be claimed which is, of course, incorrect. Quite surprising to see this from a major insurer.

Q: Hi there, todays news that CTS was awarded 2024 Nvidia Networking Partner of the Year as well as the Canadian Partner of the Year confirms they are deeply involved with Nvidia.

Does this really mean much? I'm sure it definitely brings more awareness of CTS.

But do these types of recognition awards increase business/sales, etc? Especially considering Nvidia is talked about everywhere and all the time now.

Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i
Given recent news and increase in share price would 5i continue to be holders or would they be sellers.... and why?
The sp decline last week was very discouraging but the sp pop monday was very encouraging..... However trying to capture a diminishing upside is a risk since as you say there are no guarantees... I believe your estimated upside was around $40 canadian... As investors how would 5i analyse this decision to reduce emotional element...

thx
