Q: Hi Guys
Morningstar show DEC 2019 short term debt at $395 Million and cash at 60 million
Do you know what the short term debt was used for, an if Canfor has the credit facilities to handle there debt. I was thinking on taking a small position in this stock at current price levels, after all if Pattison was willing to offer $18 or so a share.
Thanks Gord

Q: The above TFSA holdings have not performed well and of course, are not eligible as tax loss harvesting. This is one of the potential downsides of TFSA investments. Please give me your thoughts on which ones you would move on from and without worrying about sectors, some replacements you think will recover well. Thanks again for your guidance.

Q: Could you provide an update on this company, in particular, its level of debt, cash flow, growth opportunities and ability to survive through the market turmoil and a recession. The company has been steadily declining for the past several months so its recent low may not necessarily be related to the volatile market. With the downturn my position is relatively small and I am trying to decide whether to hold, add, or sell outright and use the money to buy something in a similar field (beer, wine or distillery related) with perhaps more potential over the next two to three years. Thanks.

Q: Even though LNF had a good last quarter, I am having a hard time understanding why Leon's is holding up as well as it is. When you build a house or do major reno's, you need to buy or upgrade your furniture. However, if the economy and specifically the housing industry are slowing down (as they are now), your need for furniture should follow suit. Shouldn't Leon's stock price follow suit and drop off more? I must be missing something. Thanks for your help...Steve

Q: This company, like many other hotel companies, has been clobbered the last couple of weeks. Seems to be overdone in my opinion. HOT runs hotels in the smaller US markets (non-conference hotels) and they will not be hit as hard as the larger chains operating in the New York and LA markets. Any thoughts on the prospects and valuation after the drubbing?
