Q: Hi, the GICs of smaller banks through TD direct investing such as Equitable, Home Equity and PC Bank offer much better rates than the big 5 and insurco banks. I know they are CDIC insured up to $100k but would still like to invest knowing they are decent and relatively secure companies. Could you comment on or rank the 3 mentioned in this regard and any you would pass on, Thanks

Q: Volaris Group, a Constellation Software Company, Enters into Agreement to Acquire SSP Limited

Little info on the deal as usual but looks like a great acquisition as SaaS is right in their wheel house. SSP Ltd is among Top 500 cloud software vendors according to the google search I did. What does 5i think of this deal?

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i team,
I will use XBC as an example here. It is now approaching $1B market cap. You guys always seem to reference this as a magic threshold that can bring in bigger investors that either don’t like the small cap space or are not permitted there by their mandate. I am curious if this is a key threshold for just Canadian companies or is the threshold typically higher for U.S. companies, where the cap sizes are proportionately higher.
Thanks again for the insight.
Dave

Q: Thank you for all your advice. It's been very helpful.
Goldman Sachs downgraded GOOS to SELL. Could you comment on that?
Also I heard its competitor in China called Bosideng (HKG: 3998) is doing very well.
Should I be worried about its long term growth from competition?
Thank you!
