Q: I bought half a position in GSY recently and am already up 17%. Is this a stock that should be kept at half a position or can go to a full? if a full, should i wait for a pullback to buy the rest? Is it too expensive now?
Q: AFN has been extremely volatile of late, especially today, down mid day approx 3.5% despite a good market day. They just recently announced what appears to be a good acquisition, and they pay a good dividend. Do you know what is the cause for such negative volatility, and the setting back of the share price over the past few weeks?
Q: Hi, I am glad that I did n't panick during the recent softness in Altus Group share price and stuck to my initial purchase when it was added to Balanced Portfolio. Ryan, on BNN talked about it's 14% stake in "Real Matters" (estimated $ 1 bln software co.) Real Matters filed for an IPO on April 11 and expected to go public some time in May, 2017. What will be the benefit to AIF and shareholders, in near and long term ? Also, what are your views on this IPO- is it worth participating ? Thanks

Q: I don't know GSY at all and I am reluctant to invest in their wonderfully performing shares. OTOH , I hate to miss out on a great growth situation .Why do I think of them as a Usury business managing to barely operate within the consumer act ... Perhaps I am wrong . Are they no different than any bank or trust company ... ( except that they rent furniture ???? ) .
Q: Question on shares outstanding vs. the share float. You mention in a previous answer that GSY has 60% inside ownership, is there a site that gives this number or are you getting outstanding shares from google and the inside ownership from the annual meeting report? This report would show how many shares the directors currently have. I'm trying to calculate how to buy break a larger buy into pieces and have been using the average daily number of shares traded.
Thank you and Happy Easter.

Q: Been holding GSY, have had a super run, thanks for the advice. I am however gettign concerned about an end to canadas debt binge
What are the risks to GSY from
1. Deflation of the housing bubble
2. BOC signalling and (potentially) raising rates
Would it cause more or less customers to need the type of financing GSY offers? will GSY yield spreads on financing increase/decrease?
Thanks

Q: Do you think Wildbrain's association with Youtube will be a catalyst in increasing viewership and hence increase revenue for DHX? Perhaps it's time to jump in?
Q: With roll-ups like Constellation, don't things tend to end badly? They reach a certain size and can no longer acquire enough companies to expand at 10-20% yearly, it is just an exponential mathematical equation that they cannot acquire every tech company in the known world so growth has to slow down radically eventually. CSU is competing in larger spaces with more competition and fewer companies than their classical 5-40 million revenue companies that they have acquired historically. Is this not a major concern with CSU here?
Q: The long-term chart seems to show that the downtrend is over. Going back to 2014, the stock was 12.00. Then the oil crash happenned and they suspended the 4% dividend. Today it's 4.80. I'm trying to decide if this is the time to get back in. Gold and commodity prices being up... is this what Cannacord needs to return to its previous highs? Thank you!
Q: Once the purchaser of DH acquires the common shares at $25.50, are the shares rolled into the new company or paid out? If acquired, what do you expect will happen to value of same?
