# Thinking about these stocks. 
#==============================
# Whole Foods Market -- Lots of cash. Same store growth. Great idea. 20 Billion Market capital. Big plans for growth. Canada has yet to be conquered. ---> 2
# Mosaic Capital -- Great growth. Relatively small, lots of room to grow, very little competition. Great price. ----- > 1
# Citicorp -- Becoming a more agile company, getting rid of their more cyclical parts, a long term hold. --------- > 3
# Wireless Wave Company -- GLN.TO. Great balance sheet and growth. Already saturated. Not going to make 5x money. But i like this one. ----> 3
# Lululemon -- Reached their growth, how many more malls can handle this thing? Same store sales decreasing. ------ > 3
# Telus -- Lots of debt. Little cash. Big growth in earnings to relatively low P/E. Could be a good one. Watch. ----- > 3 A bit better than the other 3s
# Nuance -- Watch this one closely. See what they do with their debt. Find out if they have any plans in the works for handling the debt. Call them maybe --- > 4 risky play watch closely
# UHAL -- Great stock. Big company. Not going to make 5x your money on this one. But relatively safe.  ------ > 3. Safe three.
# Solar City--> -- I like the idea, capital intensive company though, kinda like a bank. Anything to do with musk is expensive. ----- > 5 Upside not too much. Downside... a lot.
# IPAR -- Watch this stock. They basically sell smelly water. Great business. A little too expensive for my liking. ----- > 3 Good product. Upside not a ton. Downside not a ton. 
# TSLA-> -- Great product. Will be a major automotive company. Too expensive. ----> Really? Looooong term play. Still good. 3. 
# Grand Canyon Education --> 20 % increase year over year. Very good.
