Q: There has been an industrial fire at a lubrizol site in France. It has been catastrophical with a potential liability in the many billions, when people will find the deep pockets behind lubrizol, they are likely to push forward their claims with vigor. Lubrizol is a 100% owned berkshire subsidiary. I cannot find any references to it in our north american news channels.
I hope lubrizol has some liability insurance, and i hope not with their parent company. Have you had access to any news on this.
Thank you.

Q: Just to follow up my previous question on market makers, would an iceberg order be a way around? BTW I don't do big orders, just smallish board lots, so the m.m. must think that's worthwhile for him too.

Q: I have Level 2 trading access on Toronto so I can see where the orders stack up. I want to know how what is probably the market maker, in this case National Bank Financial, sees my order coming in and jumps ahead to be first in line?
Is there a way around this annoying practice?

Q: its very interesting that tsgi is merging with this flutter group at about 28. a share.
i sold my tsgi shares over a year ago.
but really this is a horrible deal, what about all the shareholders who bought between 28 and 50 that are still holding it.
its really only a good deal if you bought at 19-20 and i am not sure there are many of those.
even your portfolio exited long ago.i get it we were all in early with amaya but still this deal stinks.

Q: You've commented favourably about LIF several times earlier this year. Since then it's dropped like a stone. Given it's record of conservative management would you still recommend it? Do you see these moves as reactions (or over reactions)to events in China as well as their trade situation with the US? My understanding is that they produce high quality pellets that command a higher price on the market. This may insulate them somewhat from global events but there may also be material supply problems like Vale resuming production in Brazil.
I'd be interested to hear your take on this. I like the way you stand by your recommendations if you still believe in them or kick them to the curb in a second if you don't.
