Q: Hi, It was nice to watch Peter's BNN appearance on Wednesday. Very thorough and objective !! And, yes a US stock pick was interesting. Enjoyed the show.
It was also very reassuring to see Constellation Software as a Top Pick, even with the recent bounce. Clearly shows your conviction in this superb company, from the early days. Your comment about memebers' questions, which is the next comparable company with similar attributes - " The next Constellation Software is Constellation Software, itself" confirmed your confidence. We have a large position across all family accounts and have benefitted tremendously over time. Thank You.
My question is - How do we ascertain, if there has been institutional interest/buying of a stock, over certain time period ?
Yesterday, Canaccord Technical Analyst repeated Constellation as a Top Pick and mentioned that they have seen institutional buying and volume going up over past 6-8 weeks, which is healthy and a strong positive indicator.

Thanks again for your insight.

The use of growth hormones in the beef industry is all but redundant due to the advancement on genitics.there for a easy thing to say and advertise.
Antibiotic free beef is something that is impossible on a commercial scale and AW on there website verified this .
In 5:i assessment of aw claimed it sells only antibiotic free meat not so
Kind regards

Q: Vince Martin, in an article on Seeing Alpha, wrote an extensive article on TSGI as "Cheap for a reason". One main point is they think Stars overpaid for Sky. That acquisition delivered a huge profit about the time of the purchase, and the acquisition would have been profitable if that were normal profit. However government is increasing their take and according to the report, ongoing profits will be challenged to repeat. Have you seen this report, and what do you think? Vince also said that the PE of competitors is also low right now, so they don't compare favorably with the competition.

Q: Is not 2019 projections significantly better then 2018? A company want to be responsible they are penalized???

“As the timing of the full impact of these cost saving programs is difficult to determine, we believe it prudent to re-evaluate our guidance for 2019. Consequently, for 2019 we are now forecasting revenue of $385 to $400 million and adjusted EBITDA in a range of $55 to $60 million, excluding any contributions from potential future acquisitions.”

Q: What are your thoughts on SIS's premature earnings release with disappointing EBITDA miss and lowered guidance? Also they pointed to less acquisitions and more focusing on getting the house in order. Obviously not good to hear they are struggling in Europe. I have always liked this mgmt and I feel they handled this primarily negative release well and I appreciate their transparency and guidance on how they plan to fix the issues. But what does this mean for a company that has struggled for the last 5 months, are we now looking at another year plus of lowered guidance, less or no acquisitions, restructuring, and beaten down share price? Thanks
