Q: Hi Peter and Team
I would like your comments and thoughts on Rogers Sugar (RSI).
I bought it for yield and has gone down 25% since I purchased it. Should I sell it and move on? If so, would you recommend a stock with reasonable yield and capital appreciation.
Thanks for your great service.

Q: I am considering the addition of 1 more consumer discretionary stock.
Consumer staples holdings are NWC, CSW.A and CCL.B
Consumer discretionary holdings are MG and CGX.
Weighting for each sector is targeted at 10%, but I am currently a bit underweight in each.
Do you think I should be adding an additional stock, or just adding more to the existing holdings?
I have been considering CTC.A, THI, and DHX, but would welcome other suggestions.
Something offering a growing dividend would be nice.

Q: Greetings 5-i:
I subscribe to an american investor service which recommends
only a few stocks, and which are well researched. The latest one
surprises me somewhat, so here I am for your opinion. GAZPROM
with the following metrics- Mkt cap 96.75B, yield 4.09% - P/e
3.66, EV/EBITDA- 2.34. I realize you specialize in canadian
listings and will obtain most of your info from BLOOMBERG,however, I am hopeing that you may have some knowledge of it from past experiences.

Thanks for your time,
BEN
