Hello Peter :
Could you please comment on RNW, CSE, NPI, and INE. Could you rate them in order of which is the most solid company with the best prospects of growth, dividend sustainability, and possible dividend growth. RNW seems to be the cheapest and the only one with positive earnings and an indicated P/E of 29.7. How would you compare these 4 companies with BEP.UN?
Thank you...... Paul K

Q: Hello Peter et al
At what point do insiders have to cease buying company stock when they are in negotiations to take over another company? For example there has been a lot of insider buying of SYZ in the past 10 months including the purchase by the CEO of 12600 shares on 15 Sept. Does the recent purchase in effect confirm there are no takeover negotiations in progress?
Also would you consider calling a company such as SYZ in an effort to obtain a first hand impression of how the company is doing? Obviously they can only pass on publically released information but a person may be able to “read between the lines”.
We have about a 2% holding of SYZ and in view of the Q3 results and insider buying are anxious to buy more, but need a little shove to do so.
Many thanks for any comments. Bob

Q: I have owned CAE for a couple of years and despite winning contracts and continuing to lead the industry, the stock doesn't seem to be going anywhere (I am about break even). I am considering a switch to MDA but am wondering two things. Is MDA's risk profile substantially higher than CAE and secondly, the Canadian Stock Exchange website classifies CAE as an industrial stock and MDA as a tech stock. I have enough tech already but I would have thought these companies were actually quite similar and would have considered them both as industrials.
Your insight is always greatly appreciated

Q: This question was asked by Curtis on September 16th.
Your answer: We would opt for a more balanced portfolio, adding some tech, industrials, consumer products (which should be OK in a downturn) and other sectors.
Could you elaborate with one or two company names you would be comfortable with that would fit Curtis's vacation portfolio?
Would you keep REITS at 20% weight?
Thank you.

Q: I think esports will be a huge growing industry over the coming decades. Do you know of any good public companies that are in this market that you could recommend for a long-term position?
I heard that CGX just bought an esports company, which I think was smart, but it is very small compared to the size of their business.
Thanks!

You may publish your response if you wish. Thanks for your attention.

Q: Stock charts , or TMX money both allow you to compare performance between stocks in a sector / I find it helpful in getting a pulse .before buying .. Union Pacific and CNR both were battered , and I bought CNR at a recent low ... I didn't have enough USD but I would have bought Union Pacific as well... I have never lost on Rails ( touch wood ) . I follow ( CP, CNR, UNP.US, CSX.US ,NSC.US, KSU.US ) ... Making charts is easy, but doing due diligence on six companies is a day's work for me ... I would like to shorten my list / which are your faves ? ... and do you feel this reversal in rails has legs ?
Q: Hi Peter & Team,
The current ongoing acquisition that Concordia is doing is suppose to be 35% accretive to earnings in the first year. I assume that number is being calculated after the new debt and dilution of shares (with the equity raise), cash payouts and senergies are all factured in?
What is CXR's adjusted EPS range, total revenue, total debt, cash position before and after the acquisition?
Do you have an idea historically how much lower an equity raise price for a stock like this would be compared to current price (percentage wise)? I assume this will be done fairly quickly in the next few weeks?
Thank you, Shane
