Q: It appears that the acquisition of Link is going to happen. Is this going to be a catalyst for the stock? Investors don't seem to be convinced of the benefits of the deal since the stock after a jump Thursday is somewhat flat Friday.
I'm deep under water on this one. I can be patient when a stock is broken but not so sure if the company is not broken in this instance. Now what?

Q: I have held ULTA for some time and is up nicely. It hit a new yearly high on Tuesday, I am considering selling half and adding to AAPL/AMZN/GOOG/MSFT. I feel confident that when the market turns these 4 will do well. I am not so confident about ULTA. Could I please have your thoughts? Would you sell all/half/none? If you agree, in what order would you add to the others?

Q: Hi, could I please have your view of the Canadian inflation rate over the next 5 years. Do you believe we could return to a scenario of very low inflation and zero interest rates or is inflation likely to plateau at a higher level (or much higher level) and what might that level be? Thanks.

Q: Hi Team,
The stock performance of Well is a bit perplexing to me as of late. I understand that growth stocks in general have gotten slaughtered the last year. But this is a Health company (which I thought in general are supposed to fair well in "recession" type environments). The company so far has proven to be growing at a very high rate. Last numbers beat estimates if I remember correctly, and guidance upgraded. It had received some Price Target upgrades from analysts after the last release. Yet the share price continues to drift lower. Canada in general seems to have a healthcare "shortage" right now if you believe what the media tells us. You would think a company with "telehealth", which I think will have great future growth and help ease contstraints on hospitals somewhat would be catching the eye of long term investors here. As well, the CEO has a proven track record as building up a company and selling it. Am I missing something, or could this set up be one of the most compelling on the tsx today for long term buyers at this level? Also, is Well still a relatively "unknown" company to the investment world in canada? It seems that getting in early with unknown companies that end up sucessful can sometime generate outsized returns over the long haul. As is the notorious (10 baggers) everyone can dream of finding once in a lifetime. This all being said, should I be buying today for the buy and hold strategy? Your comments are appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hi Team,
With the recent slump in some of these oil names, do you see a name like WCP being bought out by a bigger company such as CVE that operate in some of the same area? You would think M&A would start happening with valuations where they are on some of these names. CVE with a P/E of 10.9, and WCP only having a P/E of a mere 2.0 (according to my trading platform numbers). This all being said, is it time to buy some of these high quality mid cap oil names that have been hit recently? Your comments are appreciated.
