Q: I hold Chartwell REIT and Chemtrade Logistics, 3% and 2.7% respectively. Am looking to add to either (or both?) in this market downturn, for income. What is a good weighting for these companies, and which is the most likely to withstand another barrage of sell-offs? (That is, which sector, which company, is likelier to do well in such an environment.) Thanks!

Q: I see that AVO is setting up an Investor Rights provision in case of unsolicited takeovers. Maybe I'm a cynic, but I find a concern about shareholders from this company out of character, to say the least. I would love to see an unsolicited bid or an activist investor get involved right now. Is this for real, or are they just increasing the chocolate ration? I'd appreciate your opinion.
Q: I own Bam.a Is it worthwhile to add bep for income or is one Brookfield company enough? I have a portfolio of 15 stocks and 5 ETFs,20% in US plus 15% GICs. I'm about to retire later this year.
I really appreciate your service.

Q: Sorry if this question comes in twice as I'm not sure it went through the first time.
In the past, your team has indicated that BNS was your favourite bank. Is this still the case, even though it has underperformed? I am considering taking a position in a bank as I have currently have CXI and EFN in my financials, and feel I am missing a bank as part of my portfolio. Am wondering which one I should take a position in (or perhaps ZEB).
Thanks!

Q: Thoughts on this stock, it keeps going down and i'm wondering if i should hold on???
Q: What is your reaction to CXI results?
Q: I am a conservative, retired dividend-income investor with a pension and CPP. My portfolio includes AD, AQN, ALA, BCE, BNS, CGX, CPG, RY, SLF, WSP, WCP, WEF, ZLB, XIT, Sentry Cdn Income Fund, Sentry REIT, RBC Eqty Inc, TD Health, Annuities and Fisgard Capital.
My question is regarding SLF. I bought it in the fall of 2014 with the investment thesis being rising interest rates and an improving equity market (both supposedly good for lifecos).
I am basically flat (down from cap loss and up from dividends). I am normally almost fully invested and am not a trader. I'm happy to hold SLF, but I think the original investment thesis has now changed. Is SLF dead money for now and is the current environment likely to produce more share price deterioration?
On a side note, I am slightly overweight in financials.
Thanks, Steve

Q: How much of a threat, mid to longer-term, do you feel the following will pose for Magna? First, sharing services Uber and Lyft, and second, developed country younger generation's disinclination for purchasing cars. Will higher demand for vehicles in developing countries outweigh the above, and is Magna well positioned to continue to do well as a Tier 1 supplier to the industry? Thank you. Ted
Q: Which of the following stocks, if any, would you add to at this time...my current weightings would allow this: MG, DH, SIA, TFI, WSP...reduce my question credits as you like. Thank you.
Q: Just a note first, I'm pretty sure the short interest is under 8 million on 133,500,000 shares, which is quite different than the 20% the previous guy mentioned, unless my source is garbage. But I don't think so...question: hiw low do you think this could possibly go? For example, oil remains low and US has a minor recession along with slowing of Chinese growth effecting market sentiment and dumping risky assets continues... Like $9-10 it hits rock bottom? Book value is close to $15-16. Do you believe management is heading in the right direction, or are they possibly hurting the Stars brand name? Sorry for the multiple questions.
Q: I assume in your below response to my question on what to to add you meant to say DSG would be a better compliment to CSU(already held) vs ESL?
'We would be comfortable with all three; But ESL looks good to us, now $11 below its high.
DSG might though be a better complement to a holding of DSG, and it is also cheaper on a valuation basis.'

Q: Can you please comment on their earnings? Do you still recommend holding this stock?
Q: Happy New Years Guys !
If you had a choice between CSU, ESL or DSG which we would you choose. And how would you rank/order them. Thanks !
Keep up the great service ! I took advantage of the special and renewed for an additional 2 years.

Q: Now that ESL has come down a bit, would this be a good time to buy if not currently owned? Or would you prefer DSG or KXS? Only other tech holding is CSU. Cheers.
Q: Hello Peter,
Could you please provide an insight on how stock prices tend to behave when a private placement is announced as in case of Tio Networks. Does it kind of set a floor? Does the price trend down after the closing date of Jan 28. I have been keeping an eye with the intention of taking a position but given its fast rise and the present market conditions, have been apprehensive of doing it right now.
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Could you please comment on Sylogist results released this morning? There was a mention of "accelerating growth in US market" and "one acquisition target we know well is our own company". How would you explain these notes? Thanks
Q: Good Morning 5i,
I have been holding of Stella Jones for a while now and I am up 35% and not overweight in my portfolio. Since Stella Jones makes Ties for the railroad track and that CP and CN are down as well, is there any correlation between the three operations? If not why SJ is Down?
