Q: Here is a list of some of my holdings. Most of them are frightening. TOY, GSY, PHO, COV, TSGI and KXS which I just increased to a full position the other day.
RHT, CXR and SINO FOREST. I have seen them go from dollars to pennies and out of these I am very concerned that TSGI -- one morning I will wake up and it will be pennies and when I go to 5i you will be telling us that you will be removing it from the portfolio and selling it. If it will take years for these to recover, should we not put our money somewhere else until that time comes?
Thanks Dennis

Q: Hi Peter
I have some money to put to work and am building positions in the 5i portfolios over time. I currently have BNS, MG, TSGI,WCP, WSP, AW and EMB. I am building a blend of income and growth. My question is what in your opinion, of the stocks that 5i covers, are most undervalued and oversold? (I am trying to stay away from the oil and gas sector.)

I would greatly appreciate hearing from you.

Q: Either way, I suspect Kinaxis will be a horror show. today. However, for the purposes of assessing its Q3 performance, isn't the eps number, 19 cents, not 10 cents as was mentioned in a previous answer this morning.

"Prior to the effect of the Standards, Profit for the third quarter of 2018 was $5.2 million ($0.19 per diluted share), compared to $6.0 million ($0.23 per diluted share)".

Thanks.

Q: I have a full 5% position in NFI. I understand the market likes to react to expectations and I’m ok with this. A 13% drop today was too much in my opinion so I picked up a few shares.
My question is about volume. NFI is a 2.4 billion market cap company and approx. 1 million shares traded today being roughly $39 million.
Such a small % of market cap I see the drop today as irrelevant to the real share value.
So back to my question, is there a point where volume as a % of market value is something to guide us in either a down or up market? And I’m looking not as a trader but a long term investor.
I hope you understand the question.
Thanks
John

Q: In the conference call the guidance discussed was $2.13-2.68 (although someonelse suggested $2.16-2.71). The analyst estimate from your website shows $2.88 for 2018 and an estimate of $3.24 90 days ago. This seems to be a considerable downward trend although management seemed quite upbeat and insisted there are no structural changes to account for the weakness. Given this context I have two questions. Are there other metrics to suggest management is executing well? Are you comfortable with the potential such that you would take a new position at this price or would you wait for next quarter?

Q: You have already responded about the earnings - my questions is more about strategy. Both these stocks broke their intermediate trends (using 200 MA) sometime ago (I think you called it a technical breakdown) . But both price and now earnings momentum are horrible why hold? I realize in the long term maybe okay but when things get this ugly (down more than 20% from their high) would it not it be better to allocate capital some where else - rather than have dead money? Thanks

Q: Did TSG screw up with their purchase of Sky Betting?

I ask because I wonder if the money would have been better spent partnering with major North American Sport Leagues instead? I can see a future (I hear this is the case with European football) where watching sports becomes more interactive with in-game betting or fantasy sports that is integrated and live as I watch. This could be through an enhanced subscription. How awesome would it be from my television remote to bet how many home runs will be scored in a game, inning, player, etc? With other gaming companies signing exclusive agreements I'm sure such scenarios will be channeled through their gaming products as opposed to The Stars Group.
