Q: I have listed a few comapnies that I believe are in the, let's call it "Tariff Penalty Box". My thinking is as follows:
1) They have already been hurt by the threat of tariffs.
2) If the tariffs do not come, they will 'pop'.
3) If the tariffs do come, they will also move up as the clarity of actual tariffs should ease concerns compared to the threat of nebullous, potential tariffs.

Does this seem reasonable to you? And do you agree that these four should all be on this list and are there others you would add to it?

Thank-you very much.

Q: Hi, Market reaction on PBH earnings was spot on, as you anticipated. We were able to add few shares, at the open. Thank You.

On Stars Group, do you have further insight as to the reasons for lower guidance ? Stock is weak this morning, as you expected but I am hesitant to add at this point. I know, you like to look past a few quarters for long term growth potential but is it really worth to wait for recovery (20% + and how long ?) or better take the loss and move on. Thanks

Q: I hold mid 236 series f active energy income fund in my son's RDSP. I have purchase this fund when it was closed end and last year it was changed to open ended. Sponsor middlefield has said it would reduce portfolio management to 1%. My broker quote shows MER of 2.2% and yield of 5% is the same except distribution is by way of shares instead of cash. Would you endorse this fund for purchase.
Best Regards,
Harold

Q: Questions:
(1) How would you rate Lassonde's earnings report? Is it a company worth holding taking into account their eps growth and debt profile?

(2) Do you see any red flags for the longer term regarding TSGI's eps growth. I'm surprised the market has such a negative view of the lowered eps guidance if most of it was a result of the higher share count. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts.

Thanks.

John
