Q: Although not a question just a kudo to 5I for your recommendation to Phil on the MAW105 Global Balanced Fund. I moved 1 third of my self directed LRIF into this fund at the early beginning of Covid-19. Although it's not lighting up the heavens I am in the + column (barely). It sure is boring but that's what their selling.

Q: I thought I could rely on the earnings calendar of the TMX Money web site (tmxmoney.com), but numerous times I have found it is not complete. Example: As I write this at 8pm EST on May 5th, it does not list KXS earnings on May 6th, yet my RBC Direct Investing calendar shows KXS reporting earnings on May 6th.

In the TMX Money web site they do list whether the earnings will be released before markets open, or after markets close (good); whereas the RBC Direct Investing calendar does not tell me that information (bad).

Isn't TMX Money owned by TMX Group (that runs the TSX)? If that is the case why would their earnings calendar be so incomplete (and therefore unreliable)?

Do you know of a (free) RELIABLE web site that has an accurate earnings calendar?

Q: Your thoughts on the posted results for Alaris's Q1 and the associated 30% dividend cut? I thought the dividend cut would be harsher, so I was pleasantly surprised. Based on today's closing price, the annual dividend yield is still 12.3%. If you wanted to wait until after the Wednesday conference call to answer, that's ok.

Thanks for your help...Steve

Q: Unfortunately I bought shares in AYX in February, near its all time high and have experienced a significant loss. It is off its deepest low since March but even with a 5% increase today it is presently still below its best recovery since then. What is your view on its prospects for when the economy solidifies to a recovery - is theirs the sort of product line that will attract good business? Is there reasonable prospect for upside? I see an answer to a question today referred to it having high risk; is there more down side than upside? If you were me, would you move on? And if so, what would be something with more potential and less risk (I know, those sometimes are seen to be mutually exclusive, but perhaps there is something)? Thanks for your excellent service.
