Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Thank you for your response of Dec 9, but I am still a bit confused. The commentary provided by DOL indicates that for fiscal '20 they expect to have opened 60 - 70 new stores, and this appears to be without any contribution from their new acquisition, which in turn is expected to open 40 - 50 new stores (each year?) which is a growth rate of around 20 - 25% pa. And the forecast for the coming year repeats the new store openings of 60 - 70.... excluding any Dollarcity contribution?? So while I did not appreciate that their new acquisition was so much smaller in comparison to DOLs current assets the growth contribution from this purchase looks as though it has been quite heavily discounted. If you can clarify that would be nice. Thanks

Q: I am concerned about Badger Daylighting . I keep reading news articles that the rig count in the US keeps dropping and some layoffs in US in oil/gas industry. I realize that a lot of their business is with utilities but a portion is still with oil/gas. Your thoughts please. Buy more, sell or hold? Thanks.

Q: Why is NFI considered a Consumer Cyclical and SIS considered an Industrial? I might almost see them the other way around since consumer purchases of SIS's products would seem somewhat cyclical according to the propensity of individuals to make major commitments to their lines of products. Purchases of NFI's products would be driven by municipal budgets which might be more stable in good and bad times.

Q: FYI - Re Shopify insider sales by COO. Check out "canadianinsider.com" for a good view of options and rights at very low prices that were exercised recently. ($6.22 US options and $0.152 US rights) A sweet deal when selling at ~ $370.00 US.
I find the website very informative and have it bookmarked.

Q: Hello 5i team,.
I have MX and TFII in my margin account that I'm thinking of selling to claim the capital loss.
Do you expect these two stock prices to go up significantly in the next 30 days?
Would you advise to buy them back after the 30 days?
Thanks
