Q: I was just checking out the new iPhone 13 and saw that they use Affirm for buy now, pay later. I do own GSY, is there an advantage to also owning affirm? What do you think about buying it after the latest run-up? If buying, is it overinflated and is it better to wait for it to settle down? Thanks!

Q: With the big banks flush with cash and rumours that they are looking at acquiring wealth mgt or fintech companies, could you name a few companies are your radar that would make a good fit? Something like goeasy or a wealth management company. Do you think they would be in a position to buy something like square or PayPal? I don’t think they would be interested in small fin tech companies like mogo?

Q: VEEV has taken a big tumble. I can find this " VEEV slips as burgeoning industry headwinds offset strong Q2", plus several analysts who have raised their target, anywhere from $295 - $340. VEEV is part of my growth portfolio, I'm still up 25%. I have most of the growth stocks talked about regularly, except AFRM and NVEI. Looking at momentum/growth rather than sector, would you warrant a switch from VEEV to one of the others, and if so, which one, considering there would be a currency swap involved in NVEI. Thanks!

Q: Hi Team,
Yesterday I read a headline on bnn stating that Apple, Affirm to join to buy now, pay later for Canadian purchases. GSY is partnered with Affirm (the old paybright division). I thought it might be very bullish for business for GSY being partnered with affirm which is now teaming up with the giant Apple. Yet, there was no reaction today for GSY or affirm stock on the partnership today. Can you give your take on this, as to whether this is a potential catalyst for GSY or not? Thanks.

Shane.
