Q: Thanks for this great service. In your answer to Jeff on November 30 you indicate that "6 shares of CSU would probably be the best 'small' amount of shares, to get 11 Topicus shares" which I guess is true for a conversion of 1.8598 and no partial shares. Would it not be better to have 7 CSU and get an extra 2 Topicus? I calculate you would get the following: 6=11, 7=13, 14=26, 21=39 .etc. Sorry if I have missed something but I went away thinking of multiples of 6 but 7 may be better.

Q: In a Friday question on AC, you mentioned "long term keepers". Who else would you put on this list?
Thx.
Thx.
Q: Was considering buying CSU in the near-term, buy am wondering if it is better to wait until after the Tropicus spin-off? CSU will drop once that occurs correct? I would not expect to be buying enough shares to receive any Tropicus shares so seems like waiting may be best?
Q: With no regard to market cap, classification etc., who would your top 5-10 management teams be in Canada right now?
Any small/med. cap companies that stand out to you just on management alone?

Q: I hold the above companies in my TFSA and they represent my Tech holdings. I am getting a little overweight in my tech sector and am wondering if any of my holdings are in essence duplications. If so could you recommend which ones to sell.
I have a list of buys, including CAE, TFII, XBC, GOOS, and would redeploy the capital plus some of my cash to these positions. Of my potential buys in what order would you see as the best opportunities.

Q: Hi. My daughter is looking to add a US tech stock to a portfolio that follows your balanced portfolio with some added US stocks and International ETFs. She currently owns 4 tech stocks; CSU, LSPD, KXS and NVDA. She is 21 yo and looking for long term growth. We are wondering if U is a better addition than TEAM (I am already following TEAM as I own it, but would consider selling it for a better company as I like to limit myself to following about 35 stocks). Any better suggestions? TTD? We both already own VEEV (under healthcare).
Q: What do we make of the CSU release this morning?
Thanks
Thanks

Q: All three are smaller weightings in my TFSA (1.5 - 2%). Which two would you add new money to today? Thanks.
Q: Hi, Could you please comment on CSU earnings. Thanks
Q: Have some money in a RRSP to invest and committed to continue investing in Constellation Software.
With the upcoming spin-off, Topicus, should I buy Constellation after the dividend/spinoff, or are we better off buying more of Topicus because it's essentially an earlier and smaller version of Constellation which means it's more likely to grow faster on a percentage basis.
Also are there any concerns with it being primarily in Europe versus Constellation which is much more diversified between geographies?

Q: Hi, Could you please post Quarterly Earning estimates for Constellation Software and Kinaxis
Q: Would you buy CSU or OTEX or a bit of both and explain briefly why? Long term hold in registered account.
Q: Ever since CSU announced more detailed info on the spin out, it has dropped
nearly $100. Was there something in that release that investors didn't like?
Thanks

Q: Hi,
When the Topicus shares become available for purchase, do you recommend them as a buy? Or wait and see?
