Q: Hi, Friday was the monthly expiry of June listed monthly options. I am trying make some inferences out of the trading activity for these two companies on Friday June 17. CSU had very large individual orders (22,000 shares or more) on bid and ask about $510, just before market open. Stock opened and closed with large volume on open and close, without much activity and price change during the day. As for PBH, there was not much activity for most day and stock dropped like a rock in last hour of trade with almost 225,000 shares changing hands and closing at its low. Was it as a result of traders covering their positions on long or short side and does it signify future direction of these co.'s ? Thanks for your valued insight.

Q: I checked my Scotia itrade account after reading your answer regarding Canadian companies paying $US dividends. My account states states that MG, OTC, CSU, CXR and BEP.UN are all paying Dividends in $US and then converting it into $CA. I am going to assume that they are charging me for that conversion each time which goes against my strategy to pay as little as possible in fees. What is my best solution to this problem. I do have a US trading account with BMO investorline. Would it be best to buy these stocks in $US to eliminate conversion fees. Any other insights or solutions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Q: Good Morning Guys, great job, I love the service and have been a customer from your very first day in business. In regards to CSU how closely do you consider technical analysis? I read some info this morning that is somewhat concerning. Long term trendline reversal, 50 day MA crossing below the 200 day, then the 200 day rolling over and going negative. Key support is $428, a break below that could suggest $267. Any thoughts? Thanks

Q: Hi Could you please comment on CSU earnings and the reasons for the miss. FX and strong USD was cited as one reason. What about negative 2% organic growth ? In your view, is the company's pace of growth is showing signs of exhaustion and saturation? The President's letter was pretty impressive but results not so much !! Thanks for your incredible service.
