Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.
Q: How do you think the hurricane destruction of the Caribbean will affect BNS? I know that they have operations there but how much revenue/business comes from that area of the world? Do you think it is worth holding off buying for the moment or do you expect the hurricane to not have a material impact?
Q: I own a 3/4 position in SIS. Is it too late to raise it to a full position now that it's up 8 percent today? Do you think it will pull back a bit?
Q: I am a little confused by a comment I read in the financial press which suggested that insurance company stocks may actually be poor buys now because rising interest rates lower the value of their significant bond portfolios. I thought that rising interest rates would aid insurance companies by making their long term liabilities more manageable.
Is this the same type of comment that is voiced by some talking heads complaining about current rising interest rates hurting the economy while you point out that rising rates means the economy is improving, a viewpoint that is confirmed by most data and the continually rising market itself.
So is the comment on rising rates being bad for insurance companies simply a comment from some guy who is trying to be different just to stand out or is there validity in this thinking?
Appreciate your insight.

Q: Reading the press release regarding SIS increasing its dividend, the president stated "Considering the aging population and its desire to age at home, we expect continued growth of over 10% in our lift division over the next five years and we maintain our objective to generate revenue of some $500 million by the end of 2021," concluded Mr. Bourassa.
With 2016-12 revenue at 120 million, that is a 4x revenue increase in 5 years. Very promising. How would you calculate the market cap and share price in 5 years based on his 5 year objective?
