Q: Scotia shows outstanding shares for Dollarama declining from 144 million, in 2014, to an estimated 103 million in 2020. Is it within the realm of possibility that management continues to purchase shares and decrease the share count to the point where just privatizing the company becomes the logical end game?

Thanks for your opinion. I look forward to renewing my subscription before the end of January.

Q: Good morning. I currently only have one bank (TD) and am thinking of adding a full position of Laurtentian Bank to take advantage of the recent drop in the share price. My question is, does the lead up to a provincial election in Quebec generally have negative effect on bank share prices in general and LB in particular? In other words, should I be anticipating further downward pressure on LB leading up to the fall election?

Thanks
Peter

Q: Hello Peter, and Ryan,
I would appreciate some guidance. EMH on Jan 3rd has been trading at $8 or so but they just announced a secondary offering $15M with a common share of $5 and a warrant at $6. I have seen this on other stocks and the value of the stock dips to the offering level but emh continues surging. Is this because of the hype or am i missing something? Much appreciated.

Q: I read your December response on this stock. It seems that their vaporizer product line required appropriate distribution channels to generate realistic returns. Apparently, the company has entered into a joint venture with one of the weed companies,which should bolster sales volumes.
Although still a high risk investment, the stock might probably be more palatable at this point. Would you agree?

Q: If one wanted to add exposure to the lumber industry do you have a favourite among these? I see that Resolute seems to have run away from the pack. WEF has trailed the others recently and has caught my eye. Please let me know which lumber stock you would suggest and why. It would also be helpful to know if you see adding in this sector as well timed or poorly timed. Thanks

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
Happy New year and thanks again for the great service. Grande West was supposed to report on Dec 19th 2017. I have been looking at news releases and have not seen any earnings from Grande West. Any ideas what is going on? In general, if a company is to release its earnings on a particular date and it delays the earnings date, what does it say about that company? Is there a site i can look at (other than company site) that provides exact release dates. What is your view on Greenspace Brands and Yangarra Resources. Yangarra has done well last year eventhough most oil stocks were down. Is their balance sheet better than most oil companies in Canada? Thanks again.
