Stock price when the opinion was issued
Since last summer there has been a recession in advertising for television and this has been a problem for Chorus. There are longer term headwinds since subscribers are moving more to streaming services. Chorus has STACK TV but it is an uphill battle against some of the big companies. It sold its animation studio to help reduce debt load but debt is still pretty high. The stock is too risky.
Corus Entertainment(CJR/B-T) or Crescent Point Energy(CPG-T). Run don’t walk away from Corus Entertainment. Is a declining business. They own media assets. They have slashed their dividend. There is a governance issue. Going to be hard to get out of this secular decline that they are in. He would sell it. Crescent Point Energy: Some activists involved in this one. The tailwind for this is the rising oil prices. Time on your side on this one. Would be less concerned about this stock versus Corus.
