Q: I own positions in each of these companies and am wondering about the future prospects of each.
Regarding FCR, does the recent activity of a major shareholder (Gazit Globe) selling some of its shares and an intention to sell more, significantly reduce the future price of the shares? Another way of expressing this is the freedom from Gazit allowing the company to improve their prospects?
REI seems to be a company that has stalled over the last few years. I realize they have been suffering from their holdings in shopping centres but have expected a more positive improvement.
Please give me your opinion on the prospects for each over the next 2 years as I am considering selling both positions.

Q: Currently reviewing my positions in the precious metals streamers/royalty companies. I currently have a 3% position in FNV and 1% in WPM. Thinking of selling WPM and adding a 2% position in MMX. Does the shift from WPM to MMX make sense or should I just increase my exposure to FNV?

Q: Re: "Baby Brother Strategy"
I read PH's FP article of 06/20/19 as it echoed my own thoughts about AT (though I do not pretend to possess the same analytical tools).
Could you elaborate further on that idea? I was also wondering if you can speak to programmatic advertising and if AT has any competitive advantages or moats or is it simply going head to head with TTD and others? Thank you.

Q: Evertz is approaching its long-term lower trend line, is now a good time to start a position or, in consideration of global growth worries, is waiting the best course? Does its line of business and North American focus make it to any degree recession-resistant, or is the world's move away from the traditional television paradigm (studios, synchonized feeds, etc.) going to put a cap on growth?

Q: Hi, I have been doing some analysis around building portfolios with different volatility characteristics. I chose 'beta' to measure volatility, as it is available from several sources. However, I am finding large inconsistencies from different sources ( I am looking at BMO Investorline, BNS and Interactive Brokers ). The inconsistencies are material enough that the results are individually unreliable. Are you aware of a source for reliable 'beta' calculations or source of some other form of volatility statistics. Thanks
