Q: I am hoping that you can shed some light on the revenue streams for CAE. I don't expect the airline industry to show much growth for a couple of years and but I am wondering how much this affects this company. How much of their revenue is generated from training brand new pilots, pilots on new aircraft, regular ongoing training for pilot license maintenance etc.? I know you like CAE and I normally don't pay that much attention to timing as I am a buy and hold investor. However, I am wondering if in this instance are growth revenues still two years away or do they maintain fairly even cash flow? I am assuming that the medical division is still a minor contributor to cash flow.

Appreciate your insight.

Q: I am trying to reflect on what the POS means for SHOP and other businesses. Does this suggest that SHOP is trying to develop a well guarded ecosystem (or has already done so)? What do you think the next step might be? For example, can they move into square's space and do so directly from their existing client base? Does their now massive cash horde suggest that they are likely to start some buying, presumably in niche areas that complement this move to full integration of on-line and brick-and mortar retailing? Thank-you again.

Q: Hi 5iTeam,
Given the announcement this past Monday by PNC Financial Services that is exiting its investment in BlackRock Inc. and that BlackRock has agreed to buy back shares worth $1.1billion, how do you think this is going to affect BlackRock's share price going forward.
Cheers,

Q: With the potential of a declining US dollar in the coming year(s), what impact, if any, would this have on Canadian companies that pay their dividends in USD? As a Canadian shareholder holding such stocks, the dividend return in Canadian dollars would be negatively affected. Do you anticipate these companies could begin to pay dividends in Canadian dollars instead? Thank you.

Thanks!

Q: Hi there,

I have been a member of 5i for a few years now and love the service you provide. I know you don't provide US coverage at the moment, but are there any services similar to 5i with US coverage that you know of that you would recommend? I would like to start purchasing US equities but am looking for a service similar to 5i, but for US equities.

Thank you!
