Q: I have built up a position in TIXT and plan to hold it for a very very long time. I now also have some shares of LMN spun out from CSU. The LMN shares are approximately 1% of my CSU position and an even tinier fraction of the overall portfolio. Wondering if I should just roll the shares of LMN into my TIXT position and would be more inclined to do so if there is considerable overlap in their businesses. Your thoughts please?

Thanks.

Q: Could you please comment on TRI, its valuation and why it defies gravity seemingly independent of its peers? Does it have comparables and what is future growth potential?

Q: Hi, Your thesis about trading of Lumine shares, during initial days makes sense and seems to be proving itself right. Brilliant !!! Based on no of shares already traded and more selling expected in coming days from the Index funds ( appx holding of LMN shares across Index board ), when and at what level, you expect the shares to settle, before it would be safe to start accumulating ? Thank You

Q: Since CSU pays its dividend in USD, to avoid currency exchange fees I hold CSU on the US side as CNSWF. When it spun off Lumine, the new shares showed up in my US account as LMGIF with a BV of $.02
- the spin out is listed as a "dividend in kind", does that mean there is no tax due until I sell the lumine shares at which time all proceeds (since BV of $.02) are taxed as capital gains?
- I can not see LMGIF on any of my trading platforms. What is the difference between LMGIF and LMN?
- given that Lumine does not pay a US dividend is there any reason for me to continue to hold it on the US side?

Thanks
Scott

Q: 1. When CSU spun out TOI, it was considered a “mini European CSU”. What would consider the recent spinout of LMN i.e., a “mini xxxxx CSU”? If applicable.

2. I am thinking of unloading LSPD from my RRSP at a significant loss. Where would you suggest the funds go? I am thinking either SHOP or LMN or is that just setting up a double whammy? if yes, alternatives please.

Thanks as usual.

Q: Peter, What are your thoughts regarding the run up in Topicus. What is EV/EBITDA and how do you compare its valuation to CSU and Lumine. Is it getting expensive or do you think there still is value.
Thanks

Q: TSXV has assigned this new stock the unfortunate ticker of LMN. Kindly assess the short, medium and long term prospects here. Day range 16.25-19 after half hour trading with decent volume.

Q: (I have submitted this question under CSU since Lumine does not yet seem to have been entered in your automated stock list.)

Lumine (LMN) started to trade yesterday (Mar.24), at $16.75. I have no idea whether this is a fair value, but have noted in the past that the initial market price of spin-off shares often falls
precipitously in the first few days of trading. I
I would like to add to the shares I already possess from the CSU spin-off. In your opinion, is $16 overvalued?
Thanks!

Q: I have a 1% position in DOO and was planning on increasing it. With the recent fall off in price, this seems like an opportunity. However, it is a bit surprising given good results! Anything to worry about ? Good time to add or wait ?
I own NVDA & Qcom - both close to 5%. I notice in a response to to a question about entry points for NVDA that you suggest around $200. Does that mean you expect a significant pullback in the near future? If so, would that apply to Qcom as well ? Would reducing both positions by half be appropriate ?
