Investment Q&A

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

Q: First of all, read about your site in Market Masters and love your website!

I am considering investing in BSM Technologies but recently read a bunch of reviews on glassdoor.ca that make me question my investment. The employees seem disgruntled and consider the technology buggy and outdated. After reading your report however, perhaps they are talking about the technology before Mobi? Also, i understand hardware in its infancy can have issues so thats not much of a concern. What do you make of all this?

Q: In following your recent responses you seem quite comfortable with AVO and its momentum combined with its risk/return factor. Using that as your base measurement could you list 3 more that you would feel have the same or more momentum and you feel the same level of return/risk confidence. These would fit into my Tfsa

Great Q & A section. Goes very well with my morning coffee

Q: In Leon’s recent comment about CSU.DB he said “So if the rate of inflation is 2% greater then the yr before and is 3.8 % then it is 6.5+ 2 NOT 6.5 plus 3.8”. You agreed with him.

However, the CSU.DB short form prospectus says “at a rate equal to the Cost of LivingcAdjustment (as defined below) (which amount may be positive or negative) plus 6.5% (“Floating Interest ”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate applicable to the Debentures will at no time be less than 0%.”

The Cost of Living Adjustment is defined as “the annual average percentage change in the CPI Index during the 12 month period ending on December 31 in the prior year. For the 12 month period ending on December 31, 2014, the Cost of Living Adjustment was 2.0%.”

So in Leon’s example, the rate would be 6.5 plus 3.8.

The correct understanding of this point is of major importance to me, and maybe to others. Please check your answer to Leon carefully once again and let me know whether you stand by your earlier validation of his interpretation and if so, why.
