Q: When I read through "Third Quarter Highlights" I get the feeling a lot of what the company has done is about to start hitting the bottom line, the report seems to hold a lot of potential, yet the stock price is half what it was 2years or even 5 years ago. To be fair, many gold companies are half the price they were 2 - 5 years ago. But regarding Premier Gold how do you interpret the moves this company has been making and thus are they building value for future profits. Finally, if you held a position what actions would you take?

Q: I have been looking for a good exit point for Partners for a long time. If I'm reading it right, we are getting a special distribution soon and I'm wondering if I sell it today, do I still get the special dividend? It sounds like they may dissolve this REIT completely over the next while and I'm wondering if it is best to hold, in those situations or is this a good day to say goodbye. Thanks so much…

Q: I joined 5i a year ago.

One of my first transitions was to purchase AIF (Altus) it has been on a toboggan run since. You recommended selling last quarter. I wanted to give it one more quarter as past earnings appear stronger in third and fourth quarter. With yet another miss it is time to move on. My Canadian holdings look much like our flag - red and white with no green. Patience is waning here.

I hold the following 5i recommendations:
AIF, ATD.B, ATA, GC, SLF, VB, GUD, CSU, KXS, SIS, MX, PHO, TOY, RHT (yes still could not get out fast enough), TSGI, COV

Also own XIT, XEG, PXT, TD, BAM.A, KL

I am considering replacing AIF with CAE, WSP, TFII or another recommendation?

This is in a registered account 5 - 7 year time to use horizon.

Q: Are there any issues with purchasing a company just to capture the special dividend then selling it afterwards. GMP released good results and I would expect that holding it for just a short time is a low risk to my capital. I prefer to be in much larger dividend payers however the special dividend is compelling.

Q: Either way, I suspect Kinaxis will be a horror show. today. However, for the purposes of assessing its Q3 performance, isn't the eps number, 19 cents, not 10 cents as was mentioned in a previous answer this morning.

"Prior to the effect of the Standards, Profit for the third quarter of 2018 was $5.2 million ($0.19 per diluted share), compared to $6.0 million ($0.23 per diluted share)".

Thanks.

John
