Q: Hello great team. Amaya is in a strong bullish trend in all time frames according to BMO. I am holding 6.9% within my Portfolios along with most of your other PF choices (both PFs). My question is; should I ride this a bit longer? AYA was a bit stuck for a while but is rising nicely again as I am sure you know. Any news? Thank you for all you do. I am doing well with your Q and A's and best of all "makin moola"!

Q: Hi Peter & team

Have learned to take most of the guests comments on Market Call/Tonight with a grain of salt often thinking conflicts and ulterior motives may be in play which, by the way is what makes 5i so valuable to all of us.

Having said that, Colin Stewart who I have grown to appreciate has provided some very accurate commentary in the past had some very positive comments re RPI today.

So I took a look at some of the metrics in play... Debt/Equity ratio 0.59, Price/Cash Flow 9.38, Price/Book 1.92 and Book Value/share is at 6.81.

There doesn't appear to be a ton of debt, the dividend is excellent, and as Colin said, this is a fairly recessionary proof business that generates good cash flow.

I am surprised there are not many questions on this company in the 5i forum... especially looking at it's recent performance - up almost 10% today.

What is you opinion? Why no interest from the membership? And would you consider RPI a sell/hold/or buy at this time?

Thanks for all you do

Gord

Q: I own CMI at much higher levels but to date I am fine continuing to hold with the comfort of their cash position until you report on the company again. It has been almost a year since your last report on this company. Can I assume a report will be out soon. Thank you for your reply.
As a side note I was hoping you would comment on TARO.US earnings in my last question as I thought they looked good but the stock continues to decline since they came out on the 10th.

Q: I am currently working on ensuring that my portfolio is balanced in terms of asset allocation. This exercise is revealing to me that I have no coverage in healthcare and seniors' services. When I look at the companies you've rated I don't see any in this sector that have a 5i rating of B- or better. Are there any?

Q: My only REIT - AP.UN - seems to have gone into hibernation, from being the top performing REIT for the past few years (highest combined return) to seemingly losing all momentum.

I am looking at flipping it for HR.UN that has a larger market cap $6.7 billion vs. $3.0 billion, higher yield 5.6% vs. 3.8% and more positive overall TA numbers for the short and long term prospects.

Do you endorse this switch?

Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
In one of my previous questions, I had asked which of BIN or MAL to replace CHE.UN in the Industrials sector (6.0% of portfolio); your answer was to add BIN because the exposure to the sector could be increased. Fine!
My portfolio also holds CNR, BIP.UN and STN; they fall on the larger "industrials" umbrella. With these holdings, my exposure is at 12.4% (vs 9% in the TSX).
Would this clarification change your answer?
Thanks,
Antoine

Q: HCG is down over 20% since i bought it in July. It's in my TFSA, so I can't do a tax loss sell. The questions is, should I just wait it out and hope for the best? I understand the question is basically not how much I've lost, or even whether or not i can recover it, but whether the ( seriously reduced) money would be better off somewhere else. Thoughts?
