Q: I own 800 SHS of ENB in my non-registered acct.: had for 10 years - added to original position a couple of years ago to bring to current 800 SHS. Also own same number of TRP SHS - same scenario. Added together both a small % of total portfolio. Sitting on a lot of cash and was thinking of increasing ENB to 1000 SHS. Also own: BNS, BMO, CM, T, BCE, IFC, TCL.A & NFI in this account: last 2 were added last Jan.

Q: what does 5i think of this company

Q: For a $3.6 B company with a p/e of 16.2x trading close to 400k shares per day, I find the price and volatility confusing and frustrating. Seems to move up 3 or 4% one day and down in a similar fashion the next. Even with an earnings beat the stock is not acting well, so far. Comments?

Q: how does 5i feel about this company now thanks

Q: Why would PKI opened today down about $1.00 and stayed at that level all day long? I can't find no news at all. Would you know something about why? Thanks.

Q: Hi, What will be the new no. of outstanding shares for Savaria, with 5 mln new shares issued and the insider ownership ( Mr Bouroussa and family, with addition of 71,000 committed from new issue) ? Based on 2019 guidance, and taking into account this dilution, what will be the pay out ratio ? Is this dividend 3.5 cents/month sustainable, in your view ? While no one likes a secondary at $14.15 after an issue at $16.60, a year ago, on a positive note, company could pay down a large portion of $101 mln debt, thus strengthening the balance sheet. Is there a silver lining and stock is worth adding at current level for 3% dividend yield and growth ? Also, is there a lock-in period of 4 months for the new shares from April 22, the expected closing date of secondary? Could it place more pressure on the stock, down the road ? Thank You

Q: Do you see this company as having any potential for capital appreciation during the next 24 months and if so what range (%) would be reasonable?

Q: With VNR being purchased for $26 cash to the shareholders do you suggest to just let this happen in due time or would it be beneficial to sell ones shares while it is trading above $26? Thank you for any advice on this. The dividend will be missed.
Many thanks, Len

Q: Do you think the Alberta governments decision to reduce oil production will impact PKI. Have the short sellers been increasing their attack?

Q: Hi 5i, Shopify seems to have a lot of competition entering the space with Instagram and Square's announcements, and now Microsoft. Would you suggest trimming back on this name at this point if its at a 5% weighting? Thanks.

Q: Do you think the proposed nomination of the new directors gets approved by share holders ?
If so, could the new board replace Mr. Goodman.
Can you elaborate as to what is most likely to happen in the next few months ?
Thanks for your advice.

Q: I hold SIS and also disappointed, but I did purchase at $5.72 so I will watch for now. PLC announced an offering: Park Lawn Corporation Announces $125 Million Bought Deal Offering and Successful Completion of Cress Funeral Service Acquisition. Stock down 6.75%, is this an opportunity to purchase PCL at a discount?
Thanks

Q: I would like to know if there is any "hanky panky" going on with
SIS and Dejardins. SIS got upgraded by Dejardins from $16 to $17.50 on an earnings miss which made the stock go up over $15. Now Dejardins are the underwriters
of this deal. Also does this type of "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours"
happen often in the markets?

Q: What are your thoughts on the bought deal private placement of 5M shares? If this was a less common occurrence it would be acceptable but SIS just raised money last year. On both occasions they wait for the share price to get to around $15/$16 and they decide to raise money and drive the share price down. They have set a ceiling on the share price and everytime it gets momentum they send it falling back down to earth. It seems to me that they raise the dividend to drive up the share price only to dilute our shares to get more money. If you need money why raise the dividend 20%, why not keep it the same or slight raise to save money and stop diluting and let the share price go above $16. I've liked mgmt but I'm starting to lose confidence in their decisions around growth. They have just ensured that the share price will fall to $14 tomorrow and stay in that range for months to come. Same as last year. Sorry, frustrated with the recurring dilution. Thanks
