Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I’d like to ask you to speculate on if and when Telus International might initiate a dividend? I’m assuming it is likely to happen one day? I know that you like to see that first dividend established. In your experience would it be unusual before a certain number of years have passed after being listed? Is there some consistent level of profitability required over a given time usually, or any indicators/predictors to go by? Thanks for your insight.

Q: Hello Peter,

I would like your opinion on Shopify not just on its own merit but in relation to the ecommerce business of Amazon. While the long term adoption is in place the rate of growth has slowed according to Shopify. However, Amazon being a much larger and mature business had an impressive revenue growth for the quarter?
How will the market value Shopify as compared to amazon? And when taking into account Shopify's vertical integration and Amazon's diverse business, which one would give a better return to the investor for the next 12-18 months?
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Big jump on the PepsiCo announcement. It was still rebounding well before that despite how expensive the stock is and the state of the rest of the market. Would you please share your thoughts / opinion on what the potential thesis of a buyer vs. what the potential thesis of a seller of this stock might be at this time?

Thank you.

Q: Hi,
Are SPY and QQQ subsets of VT? If so, would it suffice to just invest in VT as a more diverse index fund for a long term hold? Thanks.
