Q: Any update on current activities at AYA? I'm curious as to 5i's opinion on Mr. Bassov now, my feeling was previously he had your respect? Seems to me he has somewhat handcuffed the share price of this company for over a month and it continues as long as his bid is either made or retracted.
Q: Computer task group just reported. From the press release CTG expects total revenue for the 2016 second quarter to range between $85.0 and $87.0 million. Net income is expected to be between $0.03 and $0.05 per diluted share.
For the full year 2016, Non-GAAP net income is expected to be between $0.13 and $0.21 per diluted share.
Revenue has been declining over the past few years, the long time CEO also died recently.
They have reported $7.9M in cash in the balance sheet right now, and $79M is accounts receivable.
Is it rare to see a company trading with a market cap at close to cash + AR? (Currrent market cap is $96M)
Do you think they will drain cash to maintain the quarterly dividend of $0.06/share, making it unsustainable? Or a candidate for a cut?
Do you see this as a potential value play or trap?
Is it reasonable to speculate that a Democratic win in 2016 would be positive for healthcare IT spend? (one of CTG strengths.)
Q: Last year, Airboss went from about $15 to $25 in just a few months. What was the catalyst that drove this run up, and what has caused it to decline since? I just initiated a position based on your continued positive comments, so hopefully this was a good decision.

Q: I am interested in your opinion of Teck Resources. I have a holding purchased at a substantially higher price and am wondering if I should consider adding to it at this point.
Q: I realize that NBZ Q1 reporting will be out on 5/11 followed by a conf call and I'm not expecting great results but why is the stock performing so poorly with no news and when oil closed at 45.33 today?
Wondering if you can give your overall thoughts on this company, touch on the debt levels / payout ratio, and if possible comment on how they may plan to "diversify out of Alberta".
Q: Good afternoon,
What would you think of a small and speculative purchase of Penn West? The amount involved would be insignificant to the total portfolio but I would not proceed if you view the chance of success as minimal. Thank you.
Q: It seems to me that shorts are a way for some investors to bottom feed. I really don't understand what they are about and why they are allowed. Is there a benefit to allow shorts in the stock market
Q: i originally bought CVE and CPG for dividends and they represent 2% of my portfolio (1% each). I have a few SU shares as part of the COS deal. Now that CVE and CPG have substantially reduced or eliminated their dividends I was considering selling CVE and CPG and buying more SU. My intention is to streamline (reduce) my number of holdings, upgrade the overall quality while keeping my overall energy exposure whole. I also own CVX and CNQ.
Q: With today's low interest rates, what would you recommend to retirees to achieve a relatively low risk 5% return? I really appreciate your service.
Thanks,
Q: I have owned the above Spirit Airlines for a year or so, got in around $74.00 and while the earnings seem positive,the price of fuel is low, it has steadily declined since I have owned. Is it something I should consider selling, it is unfortunately in my rsp, so I am somewhat reluctant. I look forward to your assessment of the stock. Thank you.
