Q: Should investors be concerned about the current valuation of most companies in the stock market? Investors like Michael Burry have been warning about the consequences of overvaluation in the markets. Thanks

Q: In a TD report on XBC q3 the following comment is made, "Notably, our EBITDA estimate did not include the $5.3 million in severance incurred during the quarter as it was not contemplated in our forecast."

$5.3 million in severence for a company the size of XBC seems high to me. This occurred following the new COO hire.

Wondering if you could shed some light on this. Was there a cleaning of the house following the financial troubles announced earlier this year?

Q: This company has not yet gone to market; but, will in the next few months apparently? I believe it is a USA company - maybe Canadian doing business in USA/Canada? DKAM is very high on it and provided capital and will buy when stock issued. DKAM is a highly regarded Canadian firm.

Q: Hi team
My question is about the results of bmo in the last quarter. They show earnings of $ 3.41, how much of that is a reversal of provisions on bad debt?, If they target 40-50 % of earnings to the dividend, the increase would be rather large, depending how much they put towards buybacks, something that I never liked.

Thanks

Q: When the 2009 financial crisis hit, governments used significant fiscal stimulus which set off a huge bull market.
My questions are:
1) how many years of a bull market was this responsible for?
2) should we expect a similar bull market duration from the 2020 market crash and resulting stimulus due to Covid?

Q: Hello, I own equal amounts in ATD.B. DOL, WSP, TFII, ATA and NVEI. If you were to sell 2-4 and replace them with higher growth stocks like LSPD, GSY, BAM.A, or DND, without taking into account portfolio weighting, what would you do?

Thanks,

Q: I have owned Enbridge for a couple years and have done okay with it. Going forward I'm not sure there is much upside beyond the 6% dividend. I'm considering replacing it with a similar stock with the potential for a higher total return. I'm looking at BEP, NPI or AQN.
Would you recommend sticking with Enbridge, switching to one of these stocks or do you have another stock you would prefer?

Q: I am losing patience with LWRK. I bought it as as steady-eddy stock with some growth and a reasonable dividend. Although I'm still up some 26% ( in a non-registered account), I'm down 40% from a year ago. Please comment on recent earnings, headwinds from the recent rebranding, and any other factors that may be holding this stock back.

Thinking of foregoing the dividend and replacing LWRK with CSU or SHOP to make up for my paper loss. Is it time to bail? And if so, which of these two stocks would you recommend I purchase today? Thank you.
