Q: Add comments on earlier Qs SIS--Tech Analysis on Aug 23 provided by 5i show a break out(B.O.) at $17.50.Globe & Mail has some positive comments & on the positive B.O. list the last few days. DOL---this morning Industrial Alliance Securities upgraded to a BUY & a TP of $54.50 GC---Many months ago,the manager of VIP sector was let go & reportedly the gov't tightened the check up on money laundry.The gov't gets huge revenue from casinos

Q: Do you have an estimate of SIS earnings per share for say 2019 with their Swiss acquisition and any observations on issues associated with the integration of the new co; also is your price target of 21 based on the combined earnings and for which year?

Thanks

Q: SIS has a surprised 5% pop today against a sea of red. Are you aware of any upcoming news? Usually (of course I'm just guessing here) that is a sign of a potential buyout, but I could be reading too much into this unusual one day move. Please enlighten me. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I can never stop saying thanks for your great stock recommendations and giving me confidence to drop mutual funds from my portfolios.

A question about my TFSA. I hold PBH, PHO, SIS, KXS and WPK. The performance has been quite good as I am using the TFSA for long term growth. Any suggestions on the need to change any of the stocks in this mix?

Thanks.

Marvin

Q: Can I please have your one year price target on PBH, SIS, and KXS? Thanks.

Q: I previously asked a question about deploying a lump sum of $100K to $200K. Can you suggest a handful of Companies that you think are the most attractive right now in terms of future growth?

Thank you,
Jason

Q: Yesterday one of your answers to a question was "We would suggest KXS, TOY and PBH for growth".

Eleven days ago my 29 year old son transferred his tfsa from all cash to 85% etfs (VGG, VEE, ZWB at your suggestion) and to 15% equities (csu, sis, pbh per my suggestion and I was looking for growth with his long term horizon).

Given your growth picks of yesterday, do you think it's worth swapping his csu and sis for kxs and toy?

Q: I'm looking to add 6 Canadian stocks to my registered accounts; stocks (and if appropriate ETFs) that display good growth potential and have a bit of a dividend. I'd appreciate your suggestions, in order of preference please. Thanks as always.

Q: Could you name your top 5 'forever' stocks? a Mix of US and CAD would be great. I already own CAD Banks and CSU

Q: Hi team,
I know this is a difficult, and perhaps speculative question; but what would be your top couple picks today for a growth stock that is capable and in your view, likely, to replicate the long term stellar performance of a stock such as CSU? I am looking for a long term, steady eddy growth that is capable of over years, producing that (000's of % return that CSU for example has done. Would you consider KXS a junior CSU? Or perhaps something such as pho? Give me your best, educated couple picks. Thanks,
Shane

Thanks, Michael

Q: Could you name any other publicly traded companies in North America or Europe that are competitors to SIS?

Q: Good morning Team! I would like to thank you all for the amazing technical work that you do for me! I work full time and it would be impossible to spend the time required to research companies.(even though I would love to) Above is a portfolio that I started and I am wondering what you would suggest to add? Investment timeline 10+ yrs.
