Q: On the US side, we've owned TOT, CSCO, MO and PM for some time now and they have languished. Is patience merited or should I sell these positions and replace them with other US stocks? We're retired and want to preserve capital but do like dividend income. thanks

Q: Hi 5i
I believe NMX will be reporting Fri nov 15...,what are your expectations for results? Given recent uncertainty over financing and continual decline in NMX share price to 0.18, in your opinion does this project have any chance of completion. Is it worth any consideration at this point or is it destined for bankruptcy?
Thx for any insights.

Thx

Q: Please give insight on the business model that CPSI follows. It just reported reasonable results. Hares gapped up for only a day before falling back down. This could be due profit taking in this thinly traded security. What insight please on :
1. MOAT
2.PEG
3. Debt (manageable?)
4. Sufficient insider ownership ? (Considering its tiny size and negative price history)
5. Price to free cash flow;
PLEASE any information (of *substance* ) you can provide from your expert sources would be very helpful.


I don't expect you to know whether or not this is a candidate for a buy out by a larger company. Nevertheless , do you think CPSI is a better than average candidate for a consolidator in its industry?

Q: In the hopes of confirmed China trade deals on the horizon and easing geopolitical tensions i'm curious about your feelings on INPUT and how they can stand to benefit? With China's ban on Canadian meat products being lifted, could we reasonably expect the Canola ban to follow suit? Any other names you may suggest that would see immediate upside from stronger US/Canada/China relations? Also do you know the payout ratio for INP? Thanks

Q: I read the most recent press release from DIRRT Environmental on their 3rd quarter release. The CEO Kevin O'Meara made some pretty pointed comments about the company's failure to execute. I have never heard a CEO publically give such a frank and honest assessment of the company's missteps. Is Mr O'Meara a one off or is his rant a normal response from an unhappy CEO
