Q: I know you hold this company in the Model Growth Portfolio. I have a small holding and it is down around 70%. My plan was to continue to hold and hope it improves as the macroenvironment improves. With the stock price so low now, I hope it has hit bottom. On the other hand, I do need some losses this year to offset gains. I assume by tendering my shares via the auction, I can avoid any broker fees? What are your thoughts on continuing to hold versus tendering shares via their auction?
Thanks.

Q: Is there any particular reason why the miners are doing so poorly against the price of gold? Is this a buying opportunity or is the market anticipating a downturn in gold prices? Would you prefer buying the metal (eg. GLD) or the miners (eg. AEM, ABX, BTO)?

Q: It is common for readers to ask what market expectations are for companies that you are aware of a few days before they report their earnings i.e. recently CSU, KXS and GSY. When you see stocks with bad market expectations, could you put an alert out that for example XYZ is going to have bad market expectations? In other words, give us the head's up on bad market expectations of a security before it reports earnings. I assume that NVEI would have bad market expectations before they reported. Thank you

Q: In today's Globe and Mail article, David Rosenberg argues that stocks are overpriced and concludes that "bond yields and equity prices need to adjust lower in coming months, quarters, and maybe even years. This means asset allocators should be taking profits in the overpriced equity market and placing the proceeds in oversold Treasury notes and bonds."
Do you agree with this view?

I will appreciate your insight with respect to changing our asset mix based on Rosenberg's views.

Q: Argh!! Not a good day on the quarterly earnings front for some of these names in my portfolio. After recent developments, would you still consider these names still a add/hold/sell?

I know hindsight is 20/20 but sometimes I wonder why I didn't put more of my capital into a stock like Constellation, which is just best in class and steady, rather than into these other names. I currently have a large position in CSU and others which largely offset these losses, but waking up to these drops of 20-30% are getting really irritating, but I understand this is the how it is. No pain, no gain! Thank you!

Q: Market seemed to like the great Q2 results for Stella Jones. The press release mentioned the 2023-2025 financial objects from the inaugural Investor Day in May and I noticed the plan included a >$500M cumulative return to shareholders. The current $0.92 dividend payout is roughly $54M/yr which is well short of the goal objective. Any insight into dividend raises or special dividends.
