Q: In doing some overdue work on my portfolio I have realized that I have too many (over 30)stocks and secondly that I have 7 different stocks each making up close to 1% of the portfolio. I would like to keep 3 or perhaps 4 of the stocks listed, take the proceeds generated from selling the others,and build upon the ones I keep. Looking forward to your thoughts RAM

Q: I noticed a little price increase today but I did not see any news out on the company. Do you have anything new today? I also wanted to ask how much each of the metrics you use to grade a company influence the final grade. This company has only one C- but is graded a C+, obviously not every valuation carries the same weight but what is most important to yourselves when evaluating and can I assume that the grade is based on a long term hold in every case? Can you please give the answer as a percentage of each area of the scorecard.
Thank you
Jeremy

Q: Picked up a half position (300 shares) once the dividend hit 4%. I plan to hold for a few years. Hopefully I made a good decision. Would you put DH in with the financial or technology category? Also, knowing how they have re-invented themselves from a sleepy cheque printing company, how would you categorize the risk from apple pay type competition to DH corp? Or would DH corp be a beneficiary of this movement?

Q: I have had my eye on this comp. for a while: never bought because I felt the PE was not justified; now, PE coming down, but, I still have concerns: poor ROE, high Pay-out Ratio, missed last 3 out of 4 Q results - USD strength should be helping bottom line with major acq. this year and debt. higher - probably no dividend increases for quite a while, as well.
Comments please - thank you .... JP

Q: Hi team:

What do you make of the continuous share price massacre of DH?

You have stated in previous responses, based on facts and figures, the company is doing fine and yet the "manipulators" manage to keep selling the stock down with no resistance. That short report, which as expectedly was rebuked by management, seems to be ancient history now, so what gives?

Q: Hi Peter and Gang,

I currently have positions in CSU and GIB.A and they represents 2.5% and 3.5% of my portfolio respectively. My gains on CSU are approximately 220% and I am thinking of liquidating my entire CSU position and put the proceeds on DH (I'll stay put on GIB.A). Just wondering what your thoughts are on this move.

On November 17, in your response to a question raised by a 5i member on DH, you commented that the stock was 14x earning, is this ratio still accurate?

Regards,
Harry
