Q: Just a heads up for your dividend increase alerts.
FSV just announced an 11% div. Increase.
Signed : A happy long term holder.

Signed : A happy long term holder.
Q: For a long term hold, which of the above or both? Would you be buyers today?
Q: Between CIGI and FSV, how would you rate them and why?
Q: I'm confused about the price action of FSV today as opposed to CIGI. Both derive most of their income from the property sector, though in different ways. Yet FSV is down over 5% today while CIGI is up almost 10%. Since I've seen no company specific news I'm assuming this is in response to the vaccine news. What I can't figure out is how CIGI comes out so far ahead with a vaccine but FSV will lose out.
Q: Could you please provide comments on the recent earnings report of FSV and your thoughts going forward with this company.
Thanks
Thanks
Q: Could I have your opinion on FSV and STC. Thank you.
Q: Of the 2 which one is your favourite for a 5 to 10 year hold
Q: I had Colliers then got FirstService as a result of a split . I have 0.85% in CIGI and 1.26% in FSV. Should I continue to hold both or sell Collier then add to FirstService. Both are held in a non registered account. . ..thanks

Thanks
Thanks
Q: At today's valuations, if you could invest in one of these today as a good solid longterm investment, which one would it be? Would you still consider BYD and FSV as fairly expensive, even after the recent drop in their respective stock prices?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i team,
I've held a good number of stocks you hold in your BE portfolio and I've managed to obtain a 14% compound annual total return in the last 11 years.
100% of my portfolio is in equities; I'll be shortly 77 years old and plan to reduce my equity exposure to 30%, with the above stocks in mind.
Your opinion is most valuable

Q: Hi Peter!
After the last earning results and the big jump in valuation, is FSV now on the expensive side (forward PE of around 40)? I'm considering trimming my position. Thanks

Q: When buying a thin trader such as FSV,
Do you recommend putting in a limit order rather than a market order?
Thanks

Q: In the company data for PKI the earnings estimate is $1.52 which is a negative 22% growth over 2019, is this correct?
For FSV the estimate is $2.38 which is negative 3.6% over the previous year?
And for ATD.B there are no estimates, do have any estimates for next year?
Your assistance as always is greatly appreciated.

Q: Further to my question re: a bought deal. I read i that the deal was for $ 92.50 a share US that is approx $123.00 Canadian. If shares were trading at a higher level prior to the deal - approx $126.00 - ( mind you they were around the bought deal price a week ago ) what is the "bought deal" part of issuing new shares?
I have read that term a few times and seen the stock prices for stock react wildly from the announcements - I am unsure what it mean or what the implications are.
