Q: The company's press release shows the ex-dividend date as Feb 18. The stock had a drop today as if the ex-div date was today, Feb 13. The WSJ quotes shows ex-div date as Feb 13. So maybe some people thought the ex-div date was today and sold. I bought 450 shares today hoping to get the special dividend on Feb 18. I hope I am right. Keeping my fingers grossed. What do you think is happening?
How would you rate GS in your stock universe and what do you think about buying it at the current level. Do you think the quarterly earnings they had are sustainable and how much would they be making in the current and the next year. Do you still think it is has a takeover potential even at this high price.
Q: I own both wealth management GS and FSZ.in my TFSA. In view of recent run up of GS and decline of FSZ, is it a good idea to take profit on GS and buying more FSZ? Thank you. Bill
Q: Gluskin Sheff (GS)has had a great run and now appears to be giving back a bit of its earlier price increase. Is this a normal retracement? Is there rumour or pending news? Do you see this as a buying opportunity?
I look forward to your insightful response.

Correct me if I am wrong, One way to judge a stock is to see the return on equity as the equity holders will receive a dividend after all the debt and prefereed shareholders are paid. NOw gs.to has a return on assets 49% and return on equity 93%. would this company be a great buy.
Q: Good Morning people,
G S has done very well lately for a CO. thatlooked like a struggle a couple of months ago. Can you please comment on the rise in stock price to the present and also how the future looks.
Thanks Larry
Q: GS
What do you think of the recent increase in stock price. In the last 3 months I have made a nice 10% profit with the special dividend issued in September, should I exit now or is this a long term hold.
Does this week's developments (owners selling their shares) alter your opinion of GS as a worthy candidate for one's portfolio? If no, what would you replace it with? If yes, would you back up a small truck and buy more shares?
Thank you for your help; and I hope this finds you enjoying your time in Europe and picking up some new and useful ideas.
Q: Following up on your reply to my Gluskin Sheff (GS) question, I understood from the news release that the dual class shares are being eliminated. Have I got it wrong? Thanks, Tim.
Q: I have a position in Gluskin Sheff (GS). Does today's announcement of the cleaning up of the ownership structure increase the chances of the sale of GS or is it more likely that that Mr Gluskin & Mr Sheff just want to reduce their positions? Thanks, Tim.
Q: GS just announced a new issue at $19.00 per share. Why would the company pay out such a hefty dividend and then water down the value of their shares by such a move? Is this new issue being applied against their dividend payout? If so, why disperse such a dividend in the first place?
