Q: A few days ago you were talking that you were replacing some of Sun Life with IFC. I acted on this, but so far I wish I had not have made the move. IFC has been selling some of their animal products to a UK firm from what I have read and I get the impression that does not sit well with investors. Is there anything you know about this situation that I am unaware of? Thank you.

Q: What do you think of this company as a recovery stock? The price seems to have come down on slowing China economy and is at a 52 week low. Do you think the reaction has been overdone on the downside given it is fast food which could experience an increase in sales in a recession, it is a US company operating in China so reporting is reliable, and it is likely not a US company which would experience retaliation by US government or the public. Can you go over recent results in your answer. Thank you.

Q: Can you give an update on TLO? It has been on a steady decline for the past year. Could you speculate on the reasons for the fall? They have had some recent positive news. You had previously mentioned it had some big backers, so I wonder if those backers are still holding. Wondering if it is time to cut this loose or wait for a rebound when central banks cut rates.

Q: Hi, In a strong market and a FED induced rally, above stocks sold off sharply, in Today's trading, perhaps for different reasons. Drop in HPS.a, could be attributed to profit taking against the back drop of 300% jump, this year. But, the other three companies, I thought, will be benefitted with lower rates cycle over 2024/2025. May be, I am wrong. It;s just that, when some stocks don't go up ( and decline) in otherwise strong up market, makes me wonder, what am I missing ? Thank You
