Q: Hi, I currently own Et ,Otex ,Pho, Shop, SYZ, and i’am thinking of selling two or three and buying Csu.
I will be doing this for a more stable and overall better portfolio if or when we get a further market downturn.
Is my strategy sound? And which two or three would you sell? I would also be open to sell four and keep two of the best if this works.
Thanks

Q: Do you think there is any value for this free Semi letter?
I'm thinking it may help for timing names like PHO. Sell when things are booming & buy when there are no new orders?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

The Info Tech component of equities in all our accounts is 16.2%. The following stocks and ETFs are held, followed by their weightings:

CSU 7.1%
ENGH 1.4%
KXS 2.2%
OTEX 2.3%
SYZ 1.0 %
TXF 1.9%
XIT 0.3% (used to put small amounts of cash since there's no commission with iTrade)

Would it be prudent to trim CSU, and if so, to what level?
What is your opinion of the other holdings, and are their weightings appropriate?
Are the Info Tech holdings too high a percentage of the overall portfolio?

Thanks in advance for your valuable guidance. Please deduct as many credits as you deem necessary.

Q: Hello. My question may not be about Evertz per se, but a transaction.
I had a bid in for Evertz at $15.50 per share. The market closed with Evertz at 15.89 (I think). After 4pm a large volume was traded 19k vs 52k total as the daily total.
My order was filled at 4:09 at $15.11 per share. There were subsequent orders filled at higher prices. I’m not complaining, but what the heck happened? Was there a huge dump at $15.11 that scooped up my order? How late can orders be processed, particularly on a reporting day?
Well, while we’re at it.... could you comment on the reported results please?

Q: I just read a press release that Siyata Mobile put out today announcing they have entered the Australia / New Zealand market. As of now it appears they have formed relationships with the major Telco's in Canada Israel , United States and now Australia and New Zealand. Everything I have read about this Company especially in the last 6 months gives me the impression that 2019 could be a Huge Year for Siyata Mobile. My question is , do you agree and if so what type of price target do you think they may achieve within 1 year ?

Q: Can I please get your opinion of Lin. What do you think about the merger between Praxair and Linde? Do you see this as a good long term investment? Would the 15% widtholding of the dividend apply in an RRSP, as I believe they moved their headquarters out of the USA?

Are you as high on Box now as you have been over the last while? Thoughts on recent earnings? I own this in the TFSA. Worth keeping or can you suggest another company, similar sector with more growth potential. Thanks again
