Q: May I have your latest thoughts on SYM? Has its momentum improved? Are they still reducing their debt, generating positive cash flow and increasing their top line revenue? Are insiders increasing their positions? Still an “show me” story? Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jim

Q: I own PRL shares and am happy with their performance. The shares have risen rapidly over the past year and I wonder if shares, either a partial or full position, should be sold. I have seen some data that shows very rapid growth in EPS over the next couple of years .Can you provide key metrics over the next two years that would support your position on this company. Also over this period what would be a reasonable multiple of earnings for the shares? If possible could you factor in its recent acquisition. Thanks.

Q: In regards to TD - the issue of accountablity arises. The AML lapses were well known inside the company - judging by the "LOL" internal emails. The CEO has profusely apologized - has he received any kind of consequences? Just generally at what point do the board of directors ever suffer consequnces for these type events - can you cite any examples? Just frustrating that branch managers or tellers might be held to account but not highly paid upper management for their lack of supervision.
Regards

Q: Hi 5i, Can you please explain what Brookfield's Oct 9/24 announcement re "Reorganization of Brookfield Infrastructure Corp" means for shareholders like me that hold full positions in BIP.UN vs BIPC. As other 5i subscribers have mentioned, does this reorganization suggest that BIPC will continue to gain vs BIP.UN? Thanks.

Q: Hey 5i, the 5 stocks above are favoirites of DKAM and I'm thinking about putting a few in my TFSA. Now the problem is Jason Donville loves all of them but I'm sure 5i probably could tell me if they would rank some above the others? Thanks for your help. Cheers

Q: This is not a criticism, but simply a point I am making.
When comparing covered call ETF's, quite often you do not compare the percentage of holdings that the ETF is writing covered calls on. In particular, QMAX only writes calls on 30% of it's holdings, leaving the other 70% to go up and down with the market.
When you wrote your last answer about QMAX, it left me with the impression that they were writing calls on 100% of the holdings, which is wrong, and a bit misleading.
I realize that I am somewhat splitting hairs, but I feel that the percentage the fund is writing calls on is quite important, especially a tech ETF that will swing more, than say a T-Bill ETF.
Thanks for all you do!
