Hmmm...

Several contributors here seem to be of the opinion that I'm making things up, Trump style. Either they're astonishingly ignorant or are here jointly for a more nefarious purpose. Perhaps they would be so bold as to state that INK Research is making things up too, and that TD Waterhouse is remiss in publishing INK Insider and other INK reports every day when they contain, according to some, false information. Oh well, this is SH after all. People can choose to believe what they want.

I don't question your veracity, I question your sanity.  I couldn't care less about the NCIB- actually I thing it's a ridiculous idea- much like the dividend is a ridiculous idea.  For a growth company with margins like this to be doing anything with spare cash other than paying off debt and putting cash back into growing the company is ludicrous.  But I will never

And that's fine, to each his own. Today, though, I looked at my ridiculous dividend being posted to the two accounts in which I hold PTG shares and I couldn't help thinking: how ridiculous is that?

[kulewater]

Same here. I looked at my divy and thought about delayed gratification and what happened last time this dipped.. And am somewhat looking forward to getting the divy at a cheaper investment in the short term. Will be looking forward to the next Q. Just some of my thoughts.

[JasonBilly]

Me too. And, FWIW, quote from March 2016 SEDAR filing: “…Purchases under the NCIB will take place during the 12 month period commencing April 1, 2016 and ending March 31, 2017…”   If it makes anyone feel better I haven’t seen a buyback since Monday. Maybe they’re done; I’ll let the forum know if they’re not.

This is my first DIVI stock. I saw my divi for $900 in my tfsa. I am guessing that it just gets tacked onto my cash ... Is that correct?? 

[JasonBilly]

Correct. And congratulations. Might be worth diversifying though... unless you're a gambler. I own far fewer shares of PTG than you do. I may buy more depending on progress.

INK Research is a well-established institution highly respected within the investment community. Yours is a minority opinion. Are you saying INK Research is mistaken? Or dishonest?

Well, you could do what I did earlier this afternoon, which is email both PTG and INK research to ask them why the 2017 buybacks aren't being reported on SEDI. Well, there's a novel idea - when you need an answer, just ask the company instead of throwing insults around on an SH bullboard. Don't know why I have to do your dirty work for you but when I get a response I'll post it

Forgot to mention: Ted Dixon CFA, who runs INK Research, is also a regular contributor in the Globe & Mail business section. You should write to the G&M to tell them he doesn't know what he's talking about as well. You can use that phrase again: "INK Nutso Bulletin cr@p". I'm sure they'll take note.

You did? OK, yes, I went back and saw that message. I had to google Bill Matoulas' name because I didn't know it. He's not actually *with* PTG, is he? If he's listed somewhere as PTG's IR rep, it's not on PTG's website. He's with a venture company, one of whose clients happens to be PTG. But I guess if anyone would or should know it would be him so thanks for
