Q: Hi Peter,

Kudos to you and Ryan and team for the great upgrades to the website.
It looks like tax-loss selling this year could present some interesting opportunities, especially in certain resource sectors like precious metals and natural gas that have been beaten down. I have been compiling my own buy list but would be interested in seeing what yours looks like.
Please provide three names in each of the following sectors that you would look at during the next few weeks of TLS: [1] precious metals, [2] energy, [3] general canadian small to mid cap.
Also can you comment on the period of tax-loss selling and how consistent this is year to year?)

Q: Hi,
What is your opinion of NYX's press release today outlining a new commercial agreement with Scientific Games which essentially stymies what William Hill is trying to protect with it's conversion to common shares (US sports betting software control).

The one loophole still remaining for William Hill to defend it's US turf at this point seems to be clause ii) - (ii) by either Scientific Games or NYX if the arrangement agreement dated September 20, 2017 in respect of the Acquisition (the "Arrangement Agreement") is terminated in connection with NYX entering into a superior proposal or the board of NYX making a change in recommendation and in either case the superior proposal is consummated.

What is your outlook given this new information? Does it now seem more likely that the pressure is mounting for William Hill to either make a higher bid or accept the offer?
