Q: Listened to micron CEO today explain effect of tariffs on his business, micron has some production facilities in China whose products when imported to USA will be subject to new tariffs. Net effect was margin decline of .5 to 1 %. Also they are looking to move production out of China to mitigate tariff effects. Would Photon potentially get some of this this shifting of production, not only by micron but by other semi manufactures? Does photon have excess capacity to go after hew clients? Greg A.

Q: Hi 5i team,
Brookfield equities (BAM, BEP and BIP) represent 8% of our portfolio. I am down 8% on BEP but am wondering whether the current dip down to $38.87 per share represents a good buying opportunity, especially given it's dividend yield at around 5.5%. So, my questions are: 1) is an 8% total Brookfield weighting too much in general, and 2) what about buying more BEP or do you think that it's likely to slide further given their broad holdings in emerging markets. Thanks for your help.

Q: Hello, SIS announced a couple of days ago it is increasing the dividend by 17% and provided its update on 2018 and 2019 guidance. The market welcomed the announcement with an upswing of 5%. But today again, it is down by 3%. The volatility is not matching with the market movement. Yes , the shares are up compared to a year ago. But still the movement of the stock is becoming un predictable to large extent. Is there any other news that I have missed on this counter. Thanks for your advice always.

Q: How do you see this acquisition by COV. A purchase price of $16.1M CAN for a company which gave you $11.1 CAN seems great but would I be correct that their bottom line margins are much lower then what COV's regular business gives.
Revenue of $11.1M CAN with earnings of $.684 M is much lower than revenue of
$20 M and earnings of $2.2 M (for the first 3 quarters of 2018) on a percentage basis.
Thanks
