Q: Hello,

At what price would the warrants for PSTH need to be purchased to have them make sense vs buying common shares? I understood the warrants to be equal to 1/9 of a common share. At present time, the PSTH shares are at 21.97 and the warrants (PSTH.WS) are at 7.60. How would you compute when to buy shares vs. warrants? Part 2 of the question would be when and how does PSTH.WS become common shares?

Q: I have held a position in OTEX for some time, and have a moderate gain, but I was wondering if it would be prudent to swap out my OTEX for CSU. I have losses against which I can neutralize my gain, so tax implications are not a prominent factor. Both are good companies, with the reputation of CSU being quite extraordinary. I have decent exposure to technology, and I don't feel that simply adding to it by purchasing CSU through selling off an investment in another category would be as prudent as keeping within my current allocations. I would appreciate any thoughts you could share with me. Thanks so much!

Q: Over the past 4 quarters, AFN have repeatedly increased their estimate of the cost of "rework" on two specific contracts from $7 to $10 to $14 and now to $20 million. Have you any information on the magnitude, relative to these past equipment and estimate failures, of last Friday's failure of their North Vancouver commercial installation? The market sure doesn't seem to like it. Is it likely a over-reaction, or the proverbial back-breaking straw?

Q: hi. in regards these pipelines: 1) how much are these stocks dependent on the price of oil, on the volumes of oil through their pipes, and where that oil is being shipped from (eg Canada) to ( eg Canada or the US ). 2) do these stocks need growth in the tar sands for their growth? 3) how long a runway do they have with our weaning off oil?

Q: I would appreciate an update on your views about VMO. In the past, you have indicated support for the momentum factor strategy, but recommended that investors avoid ETFs with less than $100M in AUM. Given that VMO has an inception date of June 2016 and only $29M in AUM to date, do you still see this ETF as a good investment or is there another international momentum ETF which you prefer? Also, would this ETF be appropriate for a TFSA account?

Thank you for your insightful advice.
