Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi, I see that Knight is at a two year low. I like the company for it’s conservative ways, comfort if recession hits, and large cash position. (Has it ever given a one time special dividend while waiting?). I will be buying more in the near future.
Is now a good time to buy or would you wait and if it hits the low RSI ,as momentum is weak? I have a 4% position
Thanks,

Q: Sorry about this...but it's another TSGI question

If this was a brand new company that you were considering and you were making a decision to deploy based only on numbers (8x earnings, 5B debt, guidance where it is) BUT NOT based on past performance, analyst expectations or missed quarters what would your enthusiasm be like for buying? Does the price when weighed vs debt vs projected growth dictate a strong buy? Is growth not good for a company priced where it is or is growth "less than expected" and therefore viewed as bad?

Q: Am I missing something here or is it just the quirks of the market. TSGI has massive debt and missed some numbers but it goes up because " it's not as bad as some thought it could have been". GC does not have a long term problem, has solid growth metrics, is just getting started in Ontario also missed estimates and the price goes down. What's the rationale.

Q: Hi, wrt the recent earnings question on DSG, was your answer for Q4 or full year?
(Brian did not ask for which reporting period, so I will. :))

I ask as your answer seemed out of line wrt their 3Q numbers...ie Earnings per share on a diluted basis of $0.10, up 25% from $0.08 in Q3FY18 and compared to $0.11 in Q2FY19 (from their Q3 release).
You indicated EPS=.32 (that's a huge increase from .10!)

Your reply also differed quite a bit from their stated Q4 and full year earnings release of the prior year.
To clarify, can you please give earnings estimates for both Q4 and full year .

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Hi,

After earnings from both of these companies, would you add to tsgi? I am down 20% on tsgi and position is now .75% in portfolio, would you be comfortably topping back to 1.5-2%? would you initiate a new position in GC here? Would you own both companies or just choose one? Thanks!

Q: I struggle between trimming positions as they get too big in my portfolio, or letting them run. In the line of thinking to make above average returns, you have to have at least one multi bagger, I have held all the above into overweight positions, only to take it on the chin - the jury is still out on GC, but I'm expecting a rough day. Currently have PEO at 168% return, but I've held for years and I sleep well with this little company. Dont have a company specific question here, maybe a few thoughts on the balancing act between letting them run and trimming to appropriate size?
