Q: Can you explain the SHOP price disparity on the US and CAD exchanges that occurred recently? Reference your answer to a member question yesterday 'SHOP had an unusual spike close on Friday and was up $122. Today it is down $110 and still up over two days. On the TSX where there was no spike the stock is down $20 only today.'

Q: I am looking to possibly add to GSY. I am comparing to TD and BNS in the following order: GSY,TD,BNS with PB Ratio: 2.9, 1.9, 1.7; PE Ratio: 8.8, 12.7, 11.6; DIV(%): 2.6, 3.5, 4.3. Would you think the disparity in the PE Ratio may continue with GSY? It looks like a buy for growth but (as usual) I am probably missing something. I currently have both TD and GSY. Thoughts please. Thanks Dan.

Q: I'm a bit confused when I look at your assessment when you refer to ATD being a defensive position whereby it's considered a consumer cyclical in your classification. I understand that it could be an hybrid. How do I deal with my position weighting as my cons staples is underweight VS overweight in my cyclical by the same amount...

Thanks for your welcome enlightenment.

Q: Hi, One of my friends who is constructing a house told me costs of 2x4’s have gone up by five fold recently.. Is that reflected in the stock prices of companies like West Fraser? Is it too late to get in?
Also what are your thoughts on Aritizia going into this tough environment of higher interest rates and inflation..Will apparel companies typically prosper in such an environment? Thanks.

Q: ANRG's continuous share price slide to below $10 baffles me. I've read, extensively, the materials on their website and your Q&A's. The company continues to win new contracts and has a healthy backlog. I'm aware of the upcoming Year end and Q4 results. Fully invested, but afraid to take tax losses until after year end is announced. Can you provide any insight into the slide?

Q: In spite of a pretty good valuation, a not-so-bad quarter, and good potential Acuity Ads still continues to drift lower. A previous question on this company indicated that there might be some concern over management - that they were not too impressive. Could you provide your opinion on management and if they have what it takes to turn this company around over the next couple of years. Thanks.
