Q: Roku reports on Feb. 13 and it has beat estimates constantly since the 4th quarter of 2018 and so, I read some projections about what they are expected to report but a lot of those numbers don't mean a lot to me and so what I would like to know is it projected to have another good quarter?
GIB (CGI) Recently another member was asking whether this was a good buy with the pull back and you didn't seem too hot on it. BNN guest today also didn't seem too hot on it. What would be a good replacement for it? Thanks for your good service Dennis

Q: Good morning. In my TFSA I am down 40% in both TSGI & TOY. What are your thoughts about replacing these with LSPD and GOOS. This would be for a 4-5 year hold.
Thanks, Peter

Q: Hello: Back in 2015, I purchased a number of shares in IPL for approximately $25.00. Now they seem to be sitting at about $22.00 and there has been no significant changes for some time. Although the dividend is ok, I realize it has to be based on my purchase price, so isn't really 7+ %. I had hoped the price would increase with the recent pipline news, but it didn't. Back in 2015, these shares were considered a strong buy. How would you rate them Now?

Q: Can you comment on Brian Madden's recent comments about Shopify the last few times he's been on BNN. He likes the company but says their disclosure is a bit manipulative in that it is excluding stock based compensation and that compensation is about 10% of revenue. He feels they are intentionally leaving that out to make their numbers look better while lining their pockets while the company is still not profitable. He's the first i've heard bring this up, thoughts?

Q: Hi Guys
I hold BPY.Un amongst a few other Brookfield entities including Bam.a. I was thinking of adding more to BPY.UN and just have a question about it's book value. I know the company is never going to be sold but just kind of wondering what is realistic for book value for BPY.UN and what your screens show. When I look up book value it changes considerably from source to source and I think that might be in part because it has US and CDN listed shares. For example Scotia iTrade pegs the Price to Book at .6. So from your sources what would you say the book value is, in either CDN or US dollars - whatever is easiest for you? Also is there any kind of catalyst you can think of that would move the stock price closer to book value?

Thanks so much Stuart

Q: I have read the q and a's on the proposed split but I am still confused so please bear with me if this is a repeat question. I currently hold 100 shares in my US Rrsp account as the dividends are paid in US dollars so this avoids any exchange fees. I understand that I once the conversion occurs I will own 40 shares of the new company. Should I sell before the conversion to maximize my US dollars and buy Bep in my Canadian Rrsp account? I guess I just need to understand the implications. Thank you.
