Q: BNN's Lightspeed earnings headline featured the $100M loss without mentioning the adjusted loss is $15.6M and better than expected.. Not impressed with their negative recap.
The stock is down 13% at one pm - is this short selling or anxiety about the headlines? They doubled their sales and have a billion in the bank! I'm a buyer!

Q: I’d like to ask you to speculate on if and when Telus International might initiate a dividend? I’m assuming it is likely to happen one day? I know that you like to see that first dividend established. In your experience would it be unusual before a certain number of years have passed after being listed? Is there some consistent level of profitability required over a given time usually, or any indicators/predictors to go by? Thanks for your insight.

Q: Hello Peter,

I would like your opinion on Shopify not just on its own merit but in relation to the ecommerce business of Amazon. While the long term adoption is in place the rate of growth has slowed according to Shopify. However, Amazon being a much larger and mature business had an impressive revenue growth for the quarter?
How will the market value Shopify as compared to amazon? And when taking into account Shopify's vertical integration and Amazon's diverse business, which one would give a better return to the investor for the next 12-18 months?
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Hi Team,
According to recent updates from the company, Well Health seems to be firing on all cylinders. I am trying to understand why it's sitting near year lows. It does not seem appropriate to me for investors to be selling it off like a speculative Tech name. Healthcare will always be needed, and Telehealth should keep advancing...and is in the very very early stages. Management has a stellar history, revenues are climbing rapidly with aquisitions; with all this in mind...is it time to buy more of this name? Or am I missing something here? Thanks

Shane.

Q: I've held PBH for about 5 years and i'm in the green a little, and collected a small dividend over the years. But the gains have been a bit underwhelming. As the market has dropped and there are many high quality growthier options trading at lower valuations I wonder if its time to cut PBH. With PBH for 5 years there has always seemed to be an excuse/reason from them as to why they are under performing. Well before covid they were struggling with swing flu, staffing issues, FX issues, and others, then covid hit and obviously again they are struggling with lockdowns, inflation, staffing, etc etc etc. Is there a good reason to hold a company that only seems to perform well in ideal market situations, which in reality is almost never? Thx
