I'll be a lot happier when I'm the slot machine guy, the blackjack guy and the poker guy. This type of feedback is normal.  Plenty of people have been relying on GH dividends for over a decade.  It is difficult to endure prolonged setbacks to one's income.  I have friends and family who all own this stock, they are being patient and know that their dividends will be ...more

Share buybacks: When 10 equal shareholders operate a lemonade stand, and it earns $1,000 each summer, their earnings per share is $100.    ($1,000 / 10 = $100)  EPS = $100 That winter, 2 of the operators sell their shares back to the business because they desperately need money to go skiing. The next summer, that business earns $1,000 again.  This time, the $1,000 ...more

Malx1, thanks for all the time and effort spent on preparing the reviews, I need reviews on a regular basis as time seems to pass so quickly and it's so easy to start forgetting all the factors at play.

All us shareholders are in the same boat.  Glad to share what I can. There is a wonderful investment story here with Gamehost that is not being told. As long as nobody is bidding up this stock, the company can continue to absorb sellers using the NCIB. I don't think the $7 price range will last as we see the covid number continue downward.  Only 366 people in hospital with 72 of ...more

Not really Malx, If infltaion keeps chipping away at your shares and lemons double in price your profits go down. Soon price or cost of lemonade will go up or quality will go down which in turn will affect you customers/shareholders and profit and share price.

Russter, respectfully, none of these businesses are a perfect hedge against inflation.  If you are looking for earnings growth during periods of above-average inflation, the first place I look is oil & gas.  Your picks there would vary depending on one's risk tolerance.  I know income seekers who prefer safety often build positions in quality pipeline businesses.  The ...more

Hey Russter, you have wrote about why this stock doesn't fit your goals. Why not sell out and buy something else? I think oil pipelines might be good for you since you are worried about inflation and I assume you want a high yield.
Comment by BarstoolSage on Dec 15, 2021 10:16am
Not sure if this is the correct response to concerns raised. Russter is a long term shareholder and has simply raised general concerns that are worthy of discussion. We all buy and sell for our own reasons ...our own reasons...which can be many I bought a low priced income producing asset that took a hit due to covid. Management is using "Our" money to reinvest in the business, buy ...more

Plenty of cases out there where co's tried to sustain a dividend using debt and hope.  Most of them had their share price's collapse. Retained earnings best spent on NCIB while market conditions are weak.  There won't be discounted shares when dividend is back.  We had TheLongView make the case for NCIB over dividend.  Shares are discounted, time to buy; that' ...more

maybe my comments didn't come across right. It is from a place of curiousity not smugness. I just genuinely want to know why he doesn't contemplate selling. He could find something to fill the gap if this no longer suits his portfolio. I agree with the change of pace in terms of buybacks but I realize this is alienating to people like Russter. He raised some valid concerns.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor I love that Russter is toughing it out with the rest of us.  But we all have different objectives/tolerances/time horizons, so not everyone will agree with NCIB because they speak from a position of bias.  Best person to ask about be a career analyst who doesn't own shares.  Hmmmm...  Any Canadian small cap stock analysts out ...more
