Q: Hi Peter
Please help me understand.
In your column in the Post today you claim “our model could care less about the TSX” and as independent investors we are “ free to see to our portfolio far more diversified than the Canadian market”.
So why does the Income Portfolio only have 7 % outside Canada?
Thx Frank

Q: Hello Peter,
On your april 9th reply to QSR, the dividend that was indicated was above 3 percent; I am seeing a dividend of 1.9 percent on google. Any idea? Also, I am planning to keep QSR , GUD, SIS, ADW.A, Shop, and Spot as long term holds. Any concerns here? My weights range from 2 to 4 percent. Lastly, I I know you have had lots of questions on Knight, but from a shareholders perspective, are we not waiting along time to get some results that are meaningful to increase stock price? What are the analysts saying about Knight as I am sure their clients are not happy with the stock price. Thanks again for the great input.

Q: Gentlemen,
In your answer, there is a typo on the first SJ, I understand it is MX ?
We like SJ and it is showing excellent momentum. It might be a takeover target and earnings growth looks good. But.....it will act very differently than SJ and will likely be far more cyclical
Thanks
Best reagards

Q: If I am correct, insiders own a lot of absolute software. What other companies would you recommend buying based on how much stock insiders own which would align them with shareholders and that is good value right now.

Q: Shaw reported a $164MM CAD loss in Q2 2017 due to restructuring. And $200MM CAD revenue from their wireless unit (+93500 new subscribers). It's been reported, so far, business is up 12% in 2018. Stock price is up today (Apr 12) more than 9%. Two questions: How much of this improvement is primarily attributed to management's actions? And, what is your opinion of this telco as an investment vehicle going forward? Thanks!
