Q: It seems that noses are out of joint in the recent Couche-Tard acquisition of The Pantry. With an investigation being launched against The Pantry directors for an alleged breach of fiduciary trust, what would be the implications to ATD? Would/should ATD walk away from this deal, or would/should it simply raise its share price, if it is found that they did indeed "underpay" for Pantry shares. Your analysis of this situation would be appreciated. Thanks, as always.

Q: I'd like any updated thoughts on Dollarama (DOL). I currently hold it and have seen it rise significantly over the last few months. They had good earnings, but the rise seems to be greater than expected. Although I'm not complaining, is it overbought? Prior to becoming a 5i member, I probably would have sold already, so I'd like your thoughts on whether I should keep holding.

Thanks for everything, and I hope your team has a wonderful Christmas!

Q: It seems that more and more police departments, especially in the U.S., but perhaps also here, may be required to provide body cameras to all officers. I believe Taser, maker of the guns, has that product, maybe go pro. Is it possible that Avigilon would look at that market. Is there a Canadian manufacturer in the business, or a manufacturer in the U.S. other than Taser that you would recommend. Thank you for all you do and Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you all.

Q: I've been pondering ATD.B for the last month and have now missed almost a 15% gain. With today's acquisition, is today's price still a good entry point for my RRSP? I do not need the money for another 20 years and I have no consumer stocks in my portfolio.

Q: Hello 5i,
I'd like to get your take on Sandvine Corp. Their technoloigy is intriging and I could see sector growing in the future. Last quarter was weak but it seemed to be more related to contract timing and they have since signed a few new deals, and they've got a ton of cash on the balance sheet. Is this stock a good buy right now for 1-2 year time frame?

Q: I would appreciate your assessment of the announcement this morning by Kelso Technologies as follows...
Association of American Railroad has approved our new JS165H high-flow pressure relief valve for commercial applications after completing its required two year field trial. The JS165H has been designed for use on general service rail tank cars carrying hazardous and non-hazardous non-flammable chemicals that require a pressure specification of 165PSI. Rail tank cars requiring this technology are primarily DOT-111 tank cars that represent approximately two-thirds of the total DOT-111 fleet in North America.
North American chemical companies have been very supportive of the development of the JS165H as a best available technology and we are now able to supply their needs. Management believes that this development will allow Kelso to increase its market share and continue the momentum of its annual revenue growth.
With this AAR approval Kelso is now able to supply approximately 70% of all PRV applications required by the AAR. The JS165H is well suited for new tank car manufacturers, retrofit operations and repair facilities. The Company is able to produce this product in its current production facilities in Bonham, Texas.

Q: Hello Everyone at 5i,
I just bought GUD at 6.85 before trading was halted today. My understanding from reading your past responses is that it is not positive news when a company issues new shares. You have stated that you like Knight and the management team.
What do you think will happen to GUD shares short term? long term?
Thank you.
Gail
