Q: I was under the impression that GSY was very impacted by rate hikes. Can you tell me why that is though, I didn't think they had that much debt that would carry higher rates. Or does it somehow impact their clients, which impacts them? If they are charging high interest rates already to their clients, what changes if interest rates are raised? Thx for the help.

Q: I'm interested in taking a position in BX. I prefer do it in my TFSA, or I could do it in my Margin if necessary - what do you suggest? Also back in Sept. you recommended it at $78-79 entry point. Would you still recommend it at that price or do you feel I should wait for a lower entry point? Do you still like this company for a long term hold? Thank you.

Thanks, Paul

Q: Merchants are now allowed to charge customers a fee if they pay by Mastercard or Visa. I own shares of Mastercard and had been hoping Mastercard would comment on this in their most recent earnings but do not think there was any mention of it. I have already heard from friends opting to pay cash or by debit card to avoid the fee at some fast-food restaurants that have already starting charging. Now I see bigger companies like Telus have announced they will start charging a fee for anyone paying by credit card, so wonder if more people may decide to switch to alternate payment methods. Could you please comment on this. Do you think this could have a significant impact on Mastercard’s business? Thank you.

Q: I am down on Block and was looking to tax loss before year end. That said:
1) Would it be worthwhile to wait for earnings? I thought perhaps a good report might help improve this situation. 2) Is Block worthwhile to buy back after 30 days or move the funds to my 1/2 position in Visa?

Q: Hi Team,
This is more of a general/ speculative question on Go Easy. What do you see as the "end game", or ultimate goal of this company? Do you see them as continuing to keep growing the company, as they been doing indefinitely. Expanding into the US possibly? Or do you see them being acquired by a larger entity eventually? Right now, their market cap is still only showing 1.6 billion. Pretty small relatively speaking in the banking world. What potential do you see them having over the next say 10-15yrs? 5,10,20-billion-dollar company? Just trying to gauge the potential over the long term here. Thanks!
