Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I am trying to reflect on what the POS means for SHOP and other businesses. Does this suggest that SHOP is trying to develop a well guarded ecosystem (or has already done so)? What do you think the next step might be? For example, can they move into square's space and do so directly from their existing client base? Does their now massive cash horde suggest that they are likely to start some buying, presumably in niche areas that complement this move to full integration of on-line and brick-and mortar retailing? Thank-you again.

Q: Good morning guys. Looking for your thoughts on earnings report today. Looks like a beat all around. Have been a little frustrated with stock price not participating in most recent rally. Also concerned about effect of physical distancing on funeral revenue. Thinking about stepping out of the stock for bit and maybe revisiting it again post Covid. Always appreciate your insight. Thanks. Chris

Q: I picked some of FCR.UN today at $11.90/share for my TFSA. I am looking at this trust and thinking it is very cheap now - NAV around $18 and they did OK in April with 74% of rents collected plus they have tenants like Walmart, Canadian Tire, Liquor stores - and located in the bigger cities (GTA). Seems like they would do good long term at this price with a nice yield? I am looking at a 5 year hold at minimum.

Q: Long Term Care and Seniors Residence in general are in the spot light demonstrating what perhaps many of us, still young seniors, know from looking after our parents in and around Seniors Residence.....that they are not desirable places to have to be. Even the high end residence the majority of seniors can not afford are difficult to staff and are still close quarters to one degree or another. That said, staying away from those places will be the preference of us who are getting up there. SIS devices will be in greater demand. Who are other companies to compete with SIS?
Sorry for being long winded.

Q: I currently own CAE in my TFSA and considering buying GDI but then I would be over exposed in the industrial sector in my TFSA but not overall in my portfolio. Would it be ok to buy this stock in my TFSA or should purchased in a RRSP or non RRSP as I have cash in all 3 account?
Thanks

Q: Peter, I am interested in buying into Lightspeed and Boyd Group in 2 or 3 tranches. Both companies have earnings coming up in the next couple of weeks. What are the expectations and would you be comfortable buying at these levels, or prefer waiting until after earnings? Thanks so much.
