Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and team
With the demise of Carillion, I wonder if you would hazard a guess as to which of the above companies would be most likely to pick up some assets based on the size of the war chest, past behaviour, etc.?

Q: Good day,
I have some cash to deploy.
I am considering to buy SNC Lavalin (SNC) but I also like Stantec (STN)in the engineering field, which company would you recommand in this field?.

I am also considering taking a half position in ACQ. It seems less risky (although it is far from a blue chip..) following the recent drop, what do you think of the long term prospect of this company?

Finally, I have no gold stocks in my portfolio and feel I should add some, which names would you recommend at this point?

Thanks for the good work!

Q: I consider WSP and STN my core holdings but now due to excellent appreciation they represent 7% and 3% of my portfolio. ARE has been a laggard and represents 1%. With ARE should I go back to SNC which I owned in the past (upside due to the recent acquisition?) or just keep WSP and STN as the only stocks in this area?

Q: Hi 5i,what do you think of SNC hold or sell, and WDO is not going

Q: SNC has been performing well since the last 5 months which is reflected in the recovery of the share price and seems to me it's just a matter of time before it gets to new highs. However, from your answers to the SNC questions that I've read you don't favor this name at all and prefer STN and WSP. Please explain your point of view given the stock performance to date. Thanks in advance.
