First, I would like to thank everyone for your support and hand holding in these trying market times!! You have helped me keep panic and the temptation of emotional selling at bay.

I understand that you do not have a manic crystal ball . Cheers, Tamara

Q: I am having a hard time seeing a path to profitability for LSPD. I get that their product offers client service management, however there are tons of different point of sales systems/payment providers. Much of their growth has come from acquisitions, with a tight capital environment I not sure that is a good plan going forward. Why buy this?

Any comments appreciated Leo

Q: Your recent report on LNF didn't mention anything about the land they own. In the past, you have commented that the real estate could be used to unearth (no pun intended) value in the company. I realize this might not be the best time to look to real estate for additional value but is some type of land deal be something you would ultimately expect to happen?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: High growth stocks. A recent NP piece by Peter H. advised investors consider these vs. conservative picks coming out of a bear market. "Stocks that used to be 50X sales are now 3X sales and still growing at 50%+...a Bloomberg screen shows 982 companies with 50% sales growth in the next year."

Could you provide 10 Cdn. stocks in this category or better yet provide a link to the Bloomberg screen. Thanks.

Q: These stocks have been identified as the top 10 undervalued mid cap stocks. Would you consider any of these be buys and if so, (given no consideration for sector) can you list in terms of most favorable first. Also, which do you think will "hold on" best given the economic uncertainty and likelihood of recession.

Q: My wife's Cash account. As funds become available, I plan to initiate a position in NRGI and top up 3 existing positions = BNS, FTS, NWC.

Due to the war, NRGI could be a good addition if the war carries on, or possibly negative if the war ends (I'd gladly lose some money if it helped end the war). NWC has had a good run lately, so my thought was to do it last if at all. I currently have a large paper loss on BNS and a large paper gain on FTS. With interest rates still probably rising, that might help BNS and hurt FTS, but the market might be looking past the remaining interest rate hikes.

My thoughts on the sequence of buying when funds are available are = NRGI, BNS, FTS, NWC.

Your thoughts on sequence and why please...thanks.
