Q: Hi team,

What is your take on their recent acquisition of Visual Compliance / eCustoms Business? Is it very accretive or just in line with their prior acquisitions? I recall their purchase of Macropoint in 2017 was around $200 mil so this one is a larger acquisition monetary wise I think.
In your opinion, has Macropoint worked out as expected...or are there still better things to come from that integration?
Should we expect similar performance with this new acquisition (over time)?

I have held this company as an overweight position for 10+ years and it has done very well for me...thx! It seems to be a 'steady eddie' type stock for the most part...albeit expensive at times based on PE numbers...but sometimes you have to pay up for those types of companies.

Keep up the great teamwork!!

Cheers,
SteveMc

Q: Hello,
Raymond James analyst downgraded SQ to underperform. "In short, we believe organic growth peaked in 3Q18 and growth on the all-important [subscription] and services line will likely materially decelerate in 2Q19. What do you think about this opinion? Do you still think its a buy?
Thanks

Q: I learned from TD Waterhouse that Enghouse did a 2 for 1 stock split in December. I discovered it when I saw, what I thought, was a drastic fall in the share value to $37. My question is: should I not have received some sort of advise about the stock split from the Company?? To my knowledge I did no receive any such advice. And, also can you give me some background about the split?? Thanks

Q: In September you were generally positive on NTAP. Like the rest of the tech sector it was hit hard during the recent downturn dropping from $88 to $52. It has recovered to $63. Would you hold it here or take a loss and move on to, perhaps, OTEX?

Q: With more electric cars coming out I want to invest , but not with the car makers but what supports them. My questions are what companies I can invest in that make the charging stations, batteries , cameras and because these cars do not run on free energy what electrical produces will benefit from the higher demand in power to charge these vehicles.
