Q: Home Capital has given many billions of loans over the last 4 years. In the event that a large number of loans were fraudulent, and the executives have covered-up the truth, I imagine that at this very moment, thousands of borrowers could be running behind in their payments, and eventually default. If that happens, who would take over those mortgages? Big-banks don't deal with those profiles, so which financial would absorb those loans?

Q: I have half positions in CCL.B, ZCL, GSY,ECI and PHO; full positions in SIS,KXS,SHOP,PBH and GUD. Growth from 'good' companies is my only consideration and I have a 10 year timeline. These companies are part of the growth portion of a balanced portfolio.
Please provide guidance on the following 2 questions:
Could you rank my half position companies with growth potential as the sole criterion.
Is it reasonable to increase one's stake beyond a full position in any company that has excellent future prospects? If yes, please rank my full position companies based on growth potential.
Thanks for your excellent service, as always!
