Q: Would you say Atco overall is a cyclical business (which one might think when viewing their work camp housing part of the company), or might one view it as a utility which one could buy and hold forever given its distribution business? Would you consider it a buy and if so why?

Q: I am looking to hold some cash for 6-12 months. My broker - RBC Direct Investing - does not allow me to purchase PSA or CSAV. Would you consider HFR to be reasonably safe, or do you have another suggestion? I am somewhat reluctant to change brokers, but maybe I should.

Q: In one of the articles you suggested (can't remember which one), they were discussing correlations between stocks, sectors and assets. I find it an interesting way of further analyzing a portfolio. Could 5i someday provide correlation matrices for its different portfolios? Would be interesting to have a peak at it. Thank you very much

Q: Any thoughts on the IPO for Kura Sushi? (The IPO is scheduled for August 1st and the call sign is supposed to be KRUS:US which I think is already taken). I recently saw the concept in London England. There seemed to be some interest to eat there on the part of the younger generation however other restaurants were more busy. Not sure “food on the conveyor belt” concept is going to catch on with me and others.
Regards
Jim
Thanks,
Jim
