Q: I am curious as to what criteria is used for selecting companies for the various portfolios.
I realize that the criteria will be different with each portfolio and its purpose but my curiosity has been peaked by a stock that has never made any of your lists.
I realize that there are a limited number of spots with a limited number of portfolios and as such you must make choices as we all do.
In my case the curiosity was peaked by NFI which I have owned going back to the good old trust unit days and while my portfolio shows that I am up 260% all of the shares that I own are really free as I have taken all of my costs off the table, so to speak and I won't be trimming my holdings of it any more.
Since I have owned and followed the company for many years other than a very brief period of concern over the lack of American municipal finding for public transit, the company has had a full order book, been profitable, increased dividends and increased in value.
Never made your reports or portfolios hence my curiosity.
I has even survived being recommended by Gordon Pape although that effect may still linger!
So why wouldn't a company like that make a portfolio?
Thanks for the great service.

Q: Hi Peter,
The results out today from GRC look quite spectacular, at least on the surface. I have a small position, and added some more today. I wanted to get your thoughts on 2 things: the sustainability of the 10% dividend, and method(s) to estimate fair value for the shares, given that revenue and earnings will likely be quite volatile and unpredictable over the next months/years.
Thanks for your excellent service!
