Q: Hi. Follow-up on your previous EQB good results quarter question. Being a rookie investor I just don’t understand after such a good quarterly report why the stock went on sale down $9.99 at one time today. Can you explain in plain layman’s term why or at least give a guess why such a big drop? If this report would have been horrible does that mean the price would have jumped? Just when I thought I knew how the game worked this change has added some confusion to my thought process. Thanks again for all that you’se guys do for us amateurs. Ken. :-)

Q: Hi Team,
Can you give a brief lowdown of EQB please. What is the bullish story with them? Strengths, risks etc. Do you see more upside in them compared to the traditional big banks? Also; looking back at a 10 yr chart on eqb they seemed to have struggled in the past to maintain any sort of uptrend. I see they had a big run up in 2019 and 2021 but only to have a drastic crash back down again. What caused the last crash in 2021 from the mid 150's to 75 range? And is this issue resolved? Is this a comeback story? I don't really know the history of the bank. Thanks
Shane.

Q: Hello Peter,
The insurance sector has been outperforming this year and I am wondering if it is still time to add to sector weight.
Your preferred choice here is Intact Financial and if I do not increase my sector weight, I will have to replace with selling either SLF or TSU.
What is your opinion?
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Dear 5i
I`m reading that some analysts see CLS as a stock that won`t do any better than what the market in general is suppose to return , and as such is not worth the investment maybe when compared to other stocks . What would you say ? Also EQB or GSY and why ?
Thanks

Q: Hello,
I own IAG and it recently missed earnings expectations by 5% and, as a consequence, the market reaction was brutally punitive. How can you compare IAG's overall financial strength to larger Canadian Insurers, say IFC and MFC, and are there overall reasons to worry apart from the market's bad quarter reaction ?
