Q: Hello Team,
Could you rank these three securities for growth going forward. Would you expect Constellation to continue to grow as it has in the past, given it's now large size. I would expect it to be the safest of the three. Your comments on that as well please.
Thank You,
Barry

Q: I need to do some trimming of Lightspeed due to substantial gains since purchase at $20 to $25. I am undecided though as to whether to wait for the quarterly report which I think comes out on Nov.4. I read the estimates in your answer to a recent question, $124 m revenue and loss of $0.18. In your opinion would meeting these estimates provide stability to the stock price. Do you know of any general consensus out there as to whether it will meet, miss or beat estimates. I realize this last question involves some guess work so please feel free to leave it out in your response.
As always many thanks for the great service!

Q: Earlier this am you commented on SHOP earnings.

"SHOP reported EPS of 81 cents vs $1.13 expected. Sales were $1.12B vs $1.15B estimates. Gross merchandise value was $41.88B vs $43.43B estimated. It did, as expected, say the commerce market may be impacted by supply chain delays. But it also did say the full year outlook is consistent with prior February assumptions. This is the company's first 'miss' and the stock is down 5% in the pre-market. "

When I saw your comments I had a single malt (just kidding) prepping for a $100+ drop on top of the weakness the stock has had recently.

So at 1015 I mustered up enough courage to look at the stock and to my amazement it was up $80.

I thought i knew something about trading/investing but each day that passes humbles you more and more in this business doesn't it?

Q: This question is about REAL...which is held in a TFSA....and is down 66% or 4,700 loonies as of this evening, Oct 25th As it is held in at TFSA,and not being able to claim a capital loss for tax purposes, I wondering what my options are?....and this stems from  REAL being recently sold from the 5iR Growth Portfolio What comes to mind is  #1..like sell now before the real tax loss season begins as it is likely to decline further #2..repurchase as the tax loss selling season ends or when it shows momentum #3...or just bit the bullet and move on Keen to get your take for my particular situation, even though you have moved on, or is there some other option, as I work to recover the loss, which I already know is not the best approach and something I don't do but as it is in the TFSA, I mentally just want to make up any loss on selling it by repurchasing it, crazy as it seems, eh?!.........Tom
