Q: What do you think of the latest acquisition - is it accretive to earnings? How does the new company work w/in their strategy?

It looks positive but after an initial move up on the day of the acquisition it started to drop in late day trading and then on Friday it dropped even more. This was despite a couple of analysts reiterating their price targets and 'buy' ratings.

This stock has been trading down since last earnings despite a good quarter - any reason to be worried?

Q: Good morning, I recently had someone ask me about Quantum computing. They are interested in this stock as a short speculative play. The stock recently traded under a dollar and is relatively small. What do you think of the stock and is there any others in the space that are more desirable?

Q: I have a 4.7% position in Intuitive. 10 years from retirement with a long term horizon and can handle volatility. What’s your thought on brining this up to a 5.5% position based on today’s volatility? I’m torn as I added it as a 3% position that has done exceptionally well. What would you do if it were you? Thanks.. as always, I appreciate your logical approach to investment decisions and the vast insights provided over the last 7 years.

Q: Any thoughts on SEZL? I purchased a few shares before the recent run-up. Is there any chance it will continue to appreciate? Or perhaps go for Affirm or OPFI instead? Thanks.

Q: We needed to trim our position of Broadcom in a TFSA but instead of selling some we sold calls 18 days out at $15 above the price. We didn't notice the earnings date nor did we expect the stock to jump approx. $20 above the call price (since decreased). We intend to buy some back. Would you buy a full position at this time? Look for a dip? Is the earnings date usually something to be concerned about when selling covered calls?
Thank you

Q: In a TFSA I have a small position in Celestica (0.75% of my overall portfolio), a “smallish” position in Shopify (1.5%), and a more sizeable position in Amazon (4.5%). I am trying to decide whether to free up some funds by selling some Amazon, to add to Celestica and Shopify (perhaps 2% each), whether to just let things ride, or perhaps sell Celestica and add to Shopify. The portfolio is fairly well diversified and the objective is growth. If you were me, what would you do? Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Do you predict much growth for EQB in the next year or two? Would you lump GSY into the same growth projectory? Would you expect PRL to provide better long-term growth than either of these?

Appreciate your insight.
