Q: While FB was plummeting I sold my shares and locked in some gains. I used the money to buy shares in Constellation Software. I believe CSU will recover faster and keep growing. I feel that with the news of a slower growing user base and users being on FB for less time, it will take the market a long time to regain it's confidence in the company. Do you agree. Or should I just get back in at this lower price?

Q: More of a comment than a question, but I would appreciate your view. The knock on the old MDA was that revenues were "lumpy" and margins low. Looking at the most recent financials, that still seems to be the case for the satellite business, which generates EBITDA margin of only12% if I read things correctly. Conversely, the newly-acquired Digital Globe imaging business has an EBITDA margin over 60% and happily this is the part of the business that is forecast to grow. This can make up for the weakness of the legacy business, which I presume they will not get rid of because of a desire to offer integrated "space" services. But it stuns me that the satellite business runs on what must be a less than break-even basis. I have a now slighly underwater half position and plan to stick with it.

Q: Hello,

I currently own SRU.UN (SmartCentres REIT). I like the dividend but I am interested in capital growth as well.

Do you recommend keeping SRU.UN or to switch to CHR (Chorus Aviation) or EFN (Element Fleet Management) ?

Or, do you have a better recommendation for a stock which has has a good income, dividend growth and capital growth?

I have over a 5 year time horizon.

Thank you as always for the financial insights.
