Q: Hello

Brookfield Corp has smartly shot up to $82, from $75 level a few weeks ago, with stock showing strong momentum. It seems to have followed its private equity peers, with a favorable scenario after Trump win.

Company is also due to report in a couple of days.

We have a very small position < 1%, but like the Co a lot, being one of your favorites.

How would you approach building a position to at least 2% ? Would you be comfortable adding some shares, before the results and so at what price range ?

What is your recommendation to further consolidate this position, after results, if any weakness and price levels, please ?

Thank You

Q: Good afternoon. Today, in answering a question comparing Uber and ISRG, you implied that Uber was a cyclical company (or at least that is how I understood your answer). But I don't understand how or why Uber would be considered cyclical. Can you clarify?

Q: Hello 5i,
It was mentioned that AW:CA is worth keeping for income. So far I am down $3,000. Is there a reason for this? I know we are not fortune tellers, but after an initial period of indecision would it be expected to go up? Would you suggest an adding to QSR in a U.S. account or another Canadian option? If so what should be considered? Time frame is five years for this 78 year old income investor.

Q: Hello, I keep missing the boat on BKNG, I know I asked this question recently, but, it never came down to its adjusted price I was hoping for. Would you dive in at current prices or does EXPE make more sense ?

Thanks.

Q: So Elon's gamble of aligning himself with the Donald, appears to have been good for his stock. My 3% position in TSLA is now finally above even - which is the point I said I would sell and buy a tech ETF instead. But as TSLA might keep climbing, I'm now wondering if selling just my upside periodically, and keeping my position at 3%, might work - until the knife starts to fall again. In other words, is a bird in hand really worth two in the bush, and how hard is it to catch a falling knife?

Q: Please comment on Firm Capital's recent results. I know you have considered it a high risk income stock but given that it has gotten its payout ratio down to 100% and its limited mortgage renewal over the next two years plus having high rate of occupancy in properties that are in demand, do you feel better about it now?
