Q: Good day! I will be receiving a large income tax refund in the coming days and will be adding in to my wife's TFSA which already includes positions in ATZ, NVEI, KL, GSY and TRUL. Time horizon of 20+ years affords a healthy appetite for risk. Her others accounts are well-balanced and moderate risk. I'm looking to add 2-3 positions in the above stocks. Please rank in order of preference for a long term hold. I am also open to any other suggestions. Thank you! (Note: I own WELL, XBC, LSPD, GOOS in my own accounts)

Q: Seems like XBC is still in the doghouse and may be for a while, so I'm trying to decide whether to ride it out given the potential, or cut losses and move to something else. Do you have any new information or views following formal release of their earnings on March 25 or the management conference call? Right now, do you consider XBC a buy, hold or sell, and if a buy or hold what would be reasonable to expect going forward in terms of share price recovery and length of time to do so based on the earnings release or what may have been communicated by management during the conference call?

Q: What is going on at Couche Tard? First of all they tried to acquire a French grocery retailer and now they are selling 4% of their North American Stores. What do you think their strategy is for the future? Seems like they want to diversify into something other than convenience stores. What is your opinion of the company and their management? I own some shares and am up 25 %.
Thanks

Q: Are you in general agreement with today's conclusion from TD Equity Research on Q4 results? For those willing to "hang in", it appears there is descent upside from here:
2021 midpoint revenue guidance implies more than25% revenue per-share growth and continues to imply a constructive outlook forXebec across its various end-markets (hydrogen, RNG, and other gasses). However,we believe that Xebec is firmly in "show-me" territory with investors and, based on thefactors described above, we are increasing our risk rating to SPECULATIVE (fromHigh previously), consistent with other companies in the Cleantech sector that are notexpected to generate meaningfully positive cash flow in the near term. This changein risk profile requires a rating change to SPECULATIVE BUY (from Buy previously).Based on our revised estimates, and an increase in the discount rate we employ, ourtarget price decreases to $7.50 (from $10.00 previously).
The report also mentioned XBC is abandoning it custom made RNG equipment products and will sell only standard equipment going forward.

Q: Where would you put the odds of TFI doing an equity financing prior to closing the UPS deal? Is it possible they might finance the purchase with debt alone? With the deal expected to close in the second quarter, when would you expect any financing to be announced? For an investor looking to add to their TFI holding, would you recommend waiting to take advantage of the drop in the stock price that an equity deal would likely cause?

Q: New to the site here. Why are there companies in the model portfolios that are not rated? If you are recommending them why wouldn't you rate them? Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i

I would like to take a position in AC, but I'm worried about Canada’s vaccine rollout. I don't see a resumption to normalized traffic this year. My guess is they might hit 50% capacity late this year, and that might be aggressive. Can tell me how long AC can last with current monthly cash flow burn before they have to raise more money? Also can you provide your best estimates to traffic for 2021 and 2022.

Thx
