Q: What are your thoughts on Tucows? I listened to the conference call and the CEO mentioned this year as being a transition year to 2019. Is the volatility in the name an opportunity for long term holders? Is the business stable enough to hold and "do nothing" being a short attack or earnings report? If this was in the growth portfolio what weighting would you perhaps give it?
Thanks!

Q: Good evening
In the last two weeks at least three experts recommended either to sell or not to buy TRI. One company that recommended shorting the TRI stock provided the following reason: "Uncertainty surrounding the plan to return $9,000,000,000 to TRI shareholders through a substantial issuer bid.
I own this stock for ten years.
Can you please advise me as to what is a substantial issuer bid and how this affects negatively the common shareholders.
Do you recommend that I sell TRI or should I continue to hold it?
As always I appreciate your insight.

Q: There seems to be a pattern of TC failing to meet earnings estimate (or at least I assume that this is what is causing the drop today). I have nice gains on it to date, but wondering whether or not it is worth continuing to hold. Would appreciate your thoughts
