Q: I was doing a high level look at my portfolio in terms of recent vs 3, 5, and 10 yr CAGR and saw what I expected from stellar performers like CSU, TRI, WSP, IFC and DSG. What surprised me was seemingly declining longer term performance (ie pre-dating interest rate changes) from FTS, QSR, GIB.A, and EIF. The balance of the portfolio is holding it’s own or is cyclical or I can see a path to renewed growth/performance. Are the four named really lagging or am I looking at the wrong metrics? If you agree they might be considered to be faltering versus past performance can you suggest “growthier” replacements without going too far out the risk scale? Thank you.

Q: Questions on CTS:

How similar is its business to GIB.A, if at all? Does it make sense to hold both?

Do you have a good feel for its resiliency (i.e. competition and poor economy)?

Is there any vision or plan on this company growing going forward?

Are there odds of a takeover in the future?
