Q: Happy and prosperous New Year 5i team,

I am just considering adding to my tfsa. I bought a chunk of Toy when it fell and thus have a bit of a profit already. And I was thinking of adding to it in 2018. But, I noticed that you added Dol to your buys this year and I have learned to pay close attention when you make a move. So, the question is, given that I am already well diversified, should I add to Toy or is there something about Dol which you have an extra strongfeeling about, since you added it to your portfolio?
thanks

Q: In one of your comment on GPS you mention " While the quarter was not great, GPS has spent the majority of the year investing in its business (Mobi, expanding sales force), trading profitability 'today' for growth 'tomorrow', and we are in 'wait and see' mode as mgmt executes its growth strategy. The stock now trades at a P/S of 1.6x.
Would you wait now for a few quarters to see how the earnings are before buying?

Q: Noted Peter's two top picks earlier this week , ECN and SHOP.
The stories may sound good but could you comment on the fundamentals on both of these companies.
ECN, reduced revenue in 2/3 last quarters and EPS down in past two quarters, increase in diluted shares in past year. Balance sheet looks iffy with increasing debt.
SHOP, net income down, eps down, negative free cash flow, negative ROE, negative ROIC., but nice balance sheet with lots of cash.
If these are top picks , why are neither owned by guest, households, investment banker clients or guest firm or affiliates as indicated on disclosure at end of top picks?
Thanks
Jeff
