Q: Hi Guys,
My question is about the Constellation Software Rights(CSU.RT). The way I calculate things, each right should be worth around 24 cents ($5/21.192). Why would they be trading at 41 cents, 70% higher?
Am I missing something or making a calculation error?
Thanks for the help.

Q: The article from Bloomberg reflects my sentiments quite succinctly. I had bought AVO at $30 and is currently 3% of my portfolio. I am torn between diametrically opposite courses of action.
- The stock has tremendous potential but very risky. If I double my position, the cost base comes down and the percentage risk diminishes but the risked amount increases.
- I could hold on to my current position and I think the downside risk is a lot lower from this point on.
- Or I could take my losses and justify that not doing so would be an opportunity cost of investing elsewhere with lower risk; in case the gain in stock price is not substantial.
I ask your advice as a voice of reason. I have itchy fingers and very often gamble and very often the end result proves the old adage that I was lucky in love.

Q: What do you think of the ETF XIT? I dislike how it has a small market cap, holds pretty much only 4 companies, and has a high MER (0.6%) but I really like buying the tech sector on dips caused by broad-market scares. It is free to buy (and sell) in an iTrade account. Holdings: 23% CGI, 23% OpenText, 16% Constellation, 8% DH. And unfortunaly, 16% BlackBerry. Any thoughts about this ETF?
Q: Is there a reason that comments are disabled on the Avigilon blog article? Of concern to me, an AVO owner now in my late sixties, is that Mr. Fernandes, who appears to be in his early forties is thinking very long term with this company if earnings are of secondary importance to product development even going out years. How long will I have to wait for payoff in my underwater investment?
Technically I see that if the stock breaks support at $17.50 next major support is $12.50 established 2012-13 on much lower volume. Perhaps it would be better to cut and run here then wait for a bottom to re-enter. Would you agree? Thanks, J.

Q: Hi 5i: I've held Avigilon for a while. At one point I was up 60% and am still up though I've lost at least half my paper gains. I still like its growth prospects, but it seems unless the growth is "per share", the market is not impressed. Do you think it's worth holding on to at this point? I'm not in a major hurry but I don't want to go back to my initial acquisition price either. Your wise counsel would be appreciated.
Q: Hi, Could you please comment on Sylogist earnings, released this evening. Thanks
Q: JDSU Getting tired of holding. Am down 20 per cent in two separate accounts. Street did not like earnings. Starting to think it was a huge mistake buying this for a turnaround. Lots of cash but no catalyst except for possibility of a takeover. Are they in the same space as INVN Invensense? Thinking of switching to INVN. Does that make sense to you?
Q: CSU
I'm wondering about the debt offering at Constellation Software. Is that a reasonable interest rate (for them - seems a bit expensive)?
Why offer debt in this way to shareholders? The exclusivity seems like it would make it more expensive. Something to do with the insider ownership?

Q: I bought CSU in June 2013, on your recommendation. It is up over 92% since then. It is 15% of my portfolio. Should I sell some of it at this point...and where would you suggest I invest it in if so?
