Q: I own Gib its okay. is otex or acn a better choice

Q: Can you please provide your outlook on the company? I’m at at 15% loss on a 2% position. I averaged down this morning and bumped it up to a 3% position. Why is it idling while the payment space in is on fire ?
Do you think it’s worth exercising a bit of patience with this one?
Thanks

Q: Would now be a good time to buy ENB. for a longer hold . We are a little concerned about the high payout ratio , do you think they may cut the dividend.

Q: What are your thoughts on bb I bought at around 8.50 Thanks

Q: What is your preference; trp vs enb and why?

Q: I have 3.0 % in BIP.UN.CA and .73 % of BIPC.T. Wondering if I should have a position in both. Both are held in a Registered fund. No tax issues. Your comments.

Q: Everyone seems to love Brookfield. But looking at it, the financials / accounting are to say the least convoluted, leverage is very high and two of their entities, BPY and BBU, look like they could be in some difficulty. I don't own any of the stocks but I own some of their debt and I am somewhat concerned. Am I way off here?

Q: I saw you made a comment on AOD a few days ago. I am currently in PKO and wondering would a switch make sense here or stay the course with PKO?

Thanks

Q: Are you aware of any funds comparable to this US fund available to US investors only but not Canadian investors. Its very focused with the top 10 positions accounting for 60% of the fund with CSU being one of the positions and the results are very impressive with a very low turnover. Mawer seems somewhat similar but not as focused.

Q: Please comment on the last reported results from the company. The stock is down a lot from recent close of 40 cents. What do you think of the prospects of this company?

Q: On the US side of the TFSAs for my wife and I, I am going to add 2 of the 4 listed US stocks, what is the short answer on how do you like them as I will be putting 1 or 2 in our TFSAs: NKLA, MOGU (which is into clothing), LIVX (Internet) and BLCT. They are all US. Thanks again, Dennis

Q: The TSGI/Flutter conversion closed May 5, but the proceeds of the conversion have still not shown up in my account. Below is the response from my investment firm received on July 5.

"Thank you for your message.
In regards to TSGI/Flutter transaction, the reason for the long delay is because Flutters shares trade on the London Exchange and we are still waiting for the shares to be received. I believe I may have spoken to you originally regarding this and such transactions typically do take up to 10 business days to be completed.
I have now heard that when dealing with foreign stock takeovers the delay can be much longer than that and we have submitted everything required for our clients to have the shares received. Unfortunately, we are still waiting for them so it's hard to say how much longer exactly it will take to receive the shares.
Regards,
Steve
Investment Representative"

Could you please comment if in your experience their explanation is reasonable or any recommended action I could take to expedite the process? Have you had other clients identify this issue?
Thank you.

Q: What do you think of Facedrive as the next Canadian technology play?

Q: SIS, PHB, PHO have all been pushed below the 1% weighting mark in my portfolio. This is due partly to starting the positions back when when my portfolio was smaller, the stocks not performing great and because other holdings (KXS!!!) have done extremely well. What 2 positions would you sell here to add to the remaining position? I'm leaning towards keeping PHO because of the balance sheet but wanted your thoughts.

Thanks

Q: Peter; So would the new large equity issue account for the weakness over the past few weeks? Don't want to sound paranoid but it seems obvious someone knew the issue was coming.
