Q: HI
I purchased LNF a few months ago when it was a recommended strong buy by 5i. It has grown 10.98% YTD and 44% since my time of purchase. Last Friday, it reached a 52 week high and the company announced that it would buy back 4.99% of its shares starting Sept 15th. My understanding is that one of the reasons a company might buy back shares is to increase its price. To me, it seems to have already grown quite a bit.
1. Should I sell part of my shares given its growth?
2. Should the buy back have any weight on my decision to sell?
3. How does 5i decide on its recommendation (eg. hold etc)?
thanks again for all your help

Q: I have been looking to take a position in Lightspeed for some time now, when it was in the $24 range, but it went up too fast too soon. with the current 15% drop and the IPO coming up, would you suggest I buy now, wait until the pricing is announced or until the issue is completed? Do you expect much volatility particularly to the upside in the interim?
Regards
Rajiv

Q: In the past you have noted that CSU is one of the best managed companies in Canada and there can be no argument there. Are they getting tired? In round terms CSU is up 20% in the past 1 year while ENGH is up 100%. Is it time for me to get off the CSU horse which has served me well. What would be your recommended replacement if yes please?

Q: What are your current thoughts on PBH? I'm looking at my holdings to evaluate what should potentially be cut for a better performing company. I've only got a couple laggards and PBH is one of them, after basically breaking even in the last year. I do feel its undervalued and could do better if some of their problems of the last few years go away and I think mgmt is pretty believable and optimistic. Not to mention the Canada Pension plan investment. Question is should I continue to hold for better days or maybe bail on this one and top up LightSpeed. I'm up overall so no tax loss consideration here. Thx
