Q: How important is the acquisition of Studon to sox, can they really afford it, and will this make them a great company. Is this a great company to invest in for a 3-5 year period or are their better choices at this time? I already own a lot of energy and gold companies. Thank you for your help. Always really appreciated.

Q: Hello 5i team,

Was very surprised to not find any comments/questions in the forum on ENB after a 10.53% jump in share value today.

I have read about the increased div as a result of the massive restructuring plan in place. Is there any other reasons you know of for the jump? And with this increase, my portfolio allocation has risen to 6% - would you recommend a trim?

Thanks for all you do

Gord

Q: hi folks:
looking at the chart of fts and to a lesser extent ema I wonder if we are in effect 'going parabolic' (as far as staid utilities can go)
these are fine companies with fine earnings etc, yet at what point does one think that perhaps much of the huge move in the last 2 months is not based on 'fundamental' future improvements yet simply by old people (me) and my parents buying what is perceived as a 'safe' dividend producing asset?

18x pe is surely not cheap for any utility

the charts each look like $34 would be a good price to buy or re-buy

comments

thank you in advance

Q: PPL just announced a 36% increase in capex for 2015 and sound quite sanguine on the future. Don't they know the oil price is imploding? From your knowledge of management would you consider their judgement sound and worth giving the benefit of the doubt?
Thanks

Q: Hi.
Would you consider KEY good value investment at this price level for a 1-3 year or longer term hold. Is this a good time to buy when there is panic or would it be better to wait for price stabilization? would you prefer PPL or IPL?
