Q: Hello,
Raymond James analyst downgraded SQ to underperform. "In short, we believe organic growth peaked in 3Q18 and growth on the all-important [subscription] and services line will likely materially decelerate in 2Q19. What do you think about this opinion? Do you still think its a buy?
Thanks

Q: I have a question about a Canadian Heat map for stocks like the excellent Finviz.com
The two that I've found ...

http://www.digitallook.com/dlmedia/investing/visual_tools/heat_maps?&username=&ac=&country_id=25
... are not visual or user friendly like Finviz.com. Can you recommend one?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and team,

In a recent post in Stock Chase, Barry Schwartz was commenting on MFC and gave it a "Don't Buy" rating, for reasons similar to 5i's. He then goes on to say that "he avoids this sector".

Is there a compelling reason to own SLF (or any other insurer) in the Financial Sector?

Our sector holdings across all accounts are BNS at 2%, GSY at 3.8%, SLF at 2%, TD at 6%, and TRI at 0.9%.

Should we 'stay the course' and keep things as they are, or should changes be made?

As always, I really value your advice.

Q: I learned from TD Waterhouse that Enghouse did a 2 for 1 stock split in December. I discovered it when I saw, what I thought, was a drastic fall in the share value to $37. My question is: should I not have received some sort of advise about the stock split from the Company?? To my knowledge I did no receive any such advice. And, also can you give me some background about the split?? Thanks
