Q: I have accounts at multiple CDIC insured lenders. One of them is Oaken Financial which is composed of CDIC insured Home Bank and Home Trust. I'm concerned about the ongoing problems with parent Home Capital; one thing after another. What's your best estimate of the likelihood of a bankruptcy, serious financial issue etc.with Home Capital which would trigger defaults at the subsidiaries so that I would be dealing with the CDIC regarding my GICs. Thanks

Q: Even with their new banking licence Currency exchange Corp's stock seems to not be able to gain any traction. Would you consider it worthwhile to sell Currency exchange Corp and replace it with Goeasy ? Goeasy would pay me to wait while CXI gets their stuff together. I think they are both in the same sector. Would the switch strengthen my portfolio.

Q: Hi 5i team :
Kroll Ball rating agency commented about TAH (USa branch of Tricon) the below note. As shareholders, should we worry now about this note ? or it is an issue to deal with in 2019 . Thanks !!

"It is worth noting that one TAH securitization and the Silver Bay deal are each collateralized by a floating-rate loan with a fully extended term of five years and the other TAH securitization is collateralized by a fixed-rate loan with a five-year term, all of which will come due from September 2019 to November 2021. This concentrated debt maturity profile may result in increased financial stress for the company."

Q: The contract with Chinese Company was for $ 1,100,000.00 to build 37 lifts. This works out to $ 30,000.00 per lift. Seems cheap to me.Is this a lost leader for future business in China. China will be a huge market for SIS. I really like the deal. Your thoughts please. Sis is projecting revenue growth of 19.1 % and Ebitda growth of 30 %.How much of their production comes from China ? A real winner. Thank you 5I.Bob

Q: I noticed insiders are buying. As you have noted people don't buy because they think the stock will go down. My cost is 8.25 and I think I should either sell or buy more. I know averaging up is best but if one does not want to buy more of their stock when it is down then I feel that is a lack of confidence in the company owned and then obviously it should be sold and absorp the lost and move on. Your thoughts please.
