Q: What is your view on the VNR takeout. Seems to me there could be a good chance for a rival bid as the premium is not huge and there has been considerable corporate activity(buyouts ect.) in the North American utility space. Do you expect this is a done deal OR potential bidding war?

Q: Can you summarize what if anything we should take away from TSGI's guidance yesterday? It seems like it was designed to encourage the market but didn't quite have the desired effect. Was there anything new there and if so did it validate the decision a lot of us have made to hold?
Q: Please comment on results and going forward.EPS missed estimates again Thanks for u usual great services & views
Q: As a follow up to my earlier question about GSY. I see their Free Cash Flows are highly variable over the past few years and were negative (-228 million) in 2018. With negative cash flows, how do they cover their dividend, and what is they payout ratio?

Q: Hi,
With the takeover of GS, I'm looking for a new name in the world of Canadian Finance. I can't find a company that pays the great divy (with special) that GS did, so I'm looking for some growth. With the recent pullback of GSY, would you support moving my cash into GSY as a within-sector replacement?
When did GSY last raise their divvy and did they give a reason why?

Q: GSY seems to be having a few bad days. With so much recent good news ,dividend rising, by 38% and increasing the number of share buybacks to 8%, this falloff seems surprising. Am I missing something here?
Q: this is a comment on questions about CDN companies and US dividends:
At NBDB I transferred Magna shares from CDN RRSP to US RRSP. The shares were journaled from MG to MGA. I get US dividends. No exchange fees. Dividend exactly what it is suppose to be.
Question to 5i: any possible downside of holding US shares instead of CDN shares?

Q: Bought a year ago at $55.00 and now down quite a bit. I own 1000 shs and was thinking of adding another 1000 shs - just > dividend substantially & plenty of contracts. At 2000 SHS would be a very small % of total portfolio.
Q: I own 6800 shares of Knight at an average cost of $8.10. This amounts to about 2% of my portfolio. I could sell it all, sell half or do nothing. What do you see for Knight in the next 5 years. Should I be looking elsewhere? Thank You.
Q: Just read that New York City Transit has awarded NFI with a contract for 15 low floor sixty-foot battery-electric, zero-emission, heavy-duty transit buses. Is this a substantial order?
NFI always makes this type of announcements and that seldom move the share price, but this one seem to have a positive effect on it today. Especially the announcement was made after closing, interesting. Your take? Thanks.

Q: It seems to be a serious dispute with M&G nominations of 4 directors and Methanex’s negtaive response to this. The share price is dropping. Would you still hold stock if you are under water already.
Thanks
Thanks
Q: Do you think Tsgi is turning around and has lots of room to run now, is it time to buy more? Thanks always
Q: Gambling is now legal in 8 US states and the trend is for additional states to legalize gambling. According to John Affleck, a sport journalism professor at Penn State, during March Madness, 47 million adults in the US will wager $8.5 billion, including 4.7 million adults for the first time. Much of this betting will be on mobile apps. Is Stars Group a player in this market and if so, how big a player?
How well are they positioned for future growth in the US market?
Also, does Stars have a robust mobile app or is the majority of it's businesses conducted on desk top computers?

Q: Doo opened up almost 6%, closed down 7.5% , even with the market having a down day, this seems strange to me. Was there anything on the call to worry investors?
Q: Hi,
after trading over $71/share in February, the stock is down more or less 10% since their earnings release. I thought they had a good quarter and I was happy with another dividend increase.
In your opinion, what may be factors explaining this downtrend? Is this more related to the sector rather than company specific?
Also, I don't have a full position in the stock. Would this be an opportunity to increase my position or given the price action, is it better to wait and see where things settle? To be honest, I see the market telling me to stay away for now.
Appreciate your opinion as always.
Thanks,
Dan
