Q: Since beginning of June EIF has been buying back shares as well as insiders buying according to TD website. Does 5i sources verify this.I would like to increase my position to 5% as being from MB I am familar with the company. I bought HCG when the company did the Dutch Auction but when the CEO was selling around the same time this should have been a red flag for me.
Q: Hi 5iResearch Team,
Price of EIF has been on a downward spiral over the last couple of months. Just wondering what your thoughts are on this stock going forward? I have a full position on it, is it a hold or sell now? Regards and thanks for the good work.

Q: hello 5i:
I've just sold BPF.UN and wish to replace it with a good, reliable income stock with at least a bit of growth potential. Would Crius (KWH.UN) be a logical name? Any other suggestions?
thanks
Paul

Q: 5i ...was wondering if you could explain a little about a company being shorted. Once the stocks value has reached a certain level is the 'heat' then taken off that company or do they continue to hammer it with a 'told you so' attitude. I have made some money on EIF and enjoy the dividend but do not want to watch all evaporate. TY for explaining.
Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Could you please comment on EIF valuation based on EIF current earning and outlook? Should I sell EIF and buy GSY?
Thanks

Q: Further to Andrew's question re EIF, I attended their annual meeting in Winnipeg this morning. Part of the earning miss is that the company serviced 12 aircraft over the winter, when business is slower, rather than space the work throughout the year. This impacted the last quarter's earnings, but the company predicts earnings will improve in the next two quarters.
Q: Thoughts on earnings.
Q: I think EIF reports on May 9 th ... what would be your expectations and would you expect further stock weakness. Thanks for all you do.
Q: Hi 5i,
Love your service.
Generally the Q&A answer my questions to my satisfaction.
I have about an 8% holding of EIF in my TSFA and a long term holding horizon. I have held it for a long time and it has been good to me. Given the current pullback and "short" concerns, I am thinking of reducing my risk by selling 1/2 position. Is this something you would recommend, or would you be in the "ride it out" category.
Thanks !

Q: Your Q&A refers to potential dividend and cash flow concerns raised by short sellers. I cannot find any discussion of this issue in your notes so I wonder if you could follow up and indicate whether these concerns have any merit and if so what basis they have. The price is down to a level which otherwise could be an attractive entry point. Thank you.
Q: Hello 5i team, I know this may have been answered in the past but...is there a reliable public site where company short positions are reported & updated? Am thinking of increasing my position in EIF but as per an answer today, you mention EIF has been shorted. I'll make my own decision to buy or not but would like to see the % of float shorted.
Also, please allow a (short) rant: Re earlier member comment about 5i being responsible for not getting it right on HCG/DH etc: let's remember what 5i is; a reliable (impartial) source for an OPINION and that's all. The decision to pull the buy/sell/hold trigger is all ours. To assign blame:look in the mirror. Keep it up 5i, you guys & gals rock!

Q: Is the acquisition a good idea? Or do you think that a grocer should stick to what it knows instead of trying to buy airplanes? According to EIF's new release, it was giving NWC a very competitive price already for they transport services. Does this make NWC still a buy or more a wait and see?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!
Q: I am assuming the North West announcement that they are pulling their business and becoming self-sufficient through an acquisition, is the reason for the steep decline lately. Should one conclude that the impact is now baked into the SP?

Q: What is your view on the announcement by EIF regarding the loss of North West as a client? The announcement said the effect on the bottom line is only about $1 million, which is so immaterial.
Also, is this piece of business development what the shorts are basing their recent incessant attack of the EIF SP? If so, can we expect a much appreciated short squeeze on Monday?
You insight is much appreciated as always.

Q: Any idea why the sudden drop in EIF and should I increase my holding to 5% with this drop?
MX is also down. Do you foresee a further drop or increase upwards again?
Thank you 5i Team!

Q: What is causing the price slide???
Q: Hello, If the short position is still as it was a few weeks ago, do you think managers will close their position? Another ex dividend is approaching and earnings release about a month away. I'd like to buy this on the way up.
