Q: Hi Peter & team, as of Friday's market close, G and K are up over 30% YTD. Apart from strength in gold price, are there any other reasons for this sudden upward move? Can we expect this trend to continue or will it reverse its course as it did in many occasions in the recent past. Thank you.

Q: With the high rate of growth in revenue, is there some threshold for growth in EPS that the street needs to see to re-accelerate this stock?
Can you tell me what the street expects for EPS in the 4th quarter? Thanks.

Q: At $8.38 Carfinco has more upside (34%) to the 11.25 takeout than downside to your $6 worst case scenario (28%). Since the market is pricing in about 50% deal failure rate, are you still comfortable with the 15-20% risk projection earlier this week, or could the market simply be assessing the situation wrongly, resulting in a mispricing of the stock because buyers are hiding? Thanks, J.
Q: Hello Team, I am considering purchasing either bep.un or cpx. Can I get your reasoning for giving CPX a B rating, but gave BEP.un an A rating. The numbers would indicate cpx deserves a higher rating.BEP has the following numbers: Debt/equity:2.7, P/E:81, P/B:1.4,EPS:0.42, 3 yr EPS growth is neg and has a 4.5% div yield.
CPX has the following numbers: Debt/equity:0.6, P/E:32, P/B:1.1, EPS: .82, 5 yr eps growth is positive and has a 5% div yield. Granted CPX has less power generation and a little diversified geographically but it would seem very comparable. Can I get your thoughts on this and what else gives Bep.un the edge? If you were to purchase one over the other which would it be and why? Can you confirm that both payout in dividends and not return of capital. Thank you

Q: 5I must be at the Canteck Conference today, as I have been enjoying their tweets.
Amaya provided positive update on developments, and I am getting close to pulling the trigger here. Price to earnings here is in excess of 56 times and wonder if this is appropriate.
Your thoughts please going forward

Q: Good Afternoon Peter and Team,
The announcement this morning that Target is leaving Canada also means that over 100 Target Mobile stores will be closing. These stores are operated by Glentel. In your opinion what impact will this have on the BCE / Rogers takeover of Glentel ??? Thank you. DL

Q: I realize badger has been hit by the oil exposure but it's at a 52 week low now. Do you think it's worth holding for the long term.
Q: The headline numbers looked fine. Digging down were there things in the recent release to warrant the sell off? We're numbers below expectations?

Re: All the comments about DH Corp initiating a DRIP. If you own shares thru a Broker (i.e TDDI) and you own a sufficient quantity of shares that your dividends allow the purchase of at least ONE SHARE then your Broker will purchase for you (called a Synthetic DRIP, with no commission)as many shares as possible (only whole shares, no fractions). This is why Mike has been recieving re-invasted dividends since March 2013 (as have I). One qualification is, at least with TDDI you need to have this feature turned on for the respective A/C. This cannot be done by the Client. You must contact your Broker to ascertain or request that the feature is enabled.
Company DRIP's are an economical way for small investors to start to build a position and also re-invest 100% of the dividends including fractional share purchases.
Hope this provides some clarification.

Q: I was doing some research on CXI and, this morning, I found an article signed by 5i Research on the Seeking Alpha website. I quickly returned to the 5i site to see if you posted it here and I didn't find anything. If you are writing for other websites, how can we find out about it and is there a way you could notify us when one of your pieces is published?

Q: Just a comment further to the discussion around the DRIP recently announced - I have been having my dividends re-invested since I first bought DH back in March 2013. I now have 13 additional shares over and above those I purchased. I just assumed they always had such a option.....
Q: Do you have any thoughts on DH starting a dividend reinvestment plan. Is this an indication that their cash flow is tight?
Q: I read somewhere that magna is looking for acquisitions. Would exco fit the bill or Martinrea or would they be looking at a U.S. company?
Q: Peter and team,
I have a couple follow up questions from the January 8 report on BEP.UN. The debt is high... if interest rates rise, will it sink the company or can the company continue to fund their operations without worry? Is there big margins there to absorb increased cost of debt? Are you concerned abou the debt at all?
Next question is around oil prices. You stated that oil prices shouldn't affect them at all but wouldn't low fossil fuel prices lead to cheaper energy production from fossil fuel burning plants and therefore BEP.UN would see even further decline of power production from existing assets and therefor decline in earnings due to more economic power coming on first?

Q: Is the drop today just because of the market. Is this a good entry point. Also does dividend from CUD qualify for the dividend tax credit even though the fund buys US stocks ? Thank you.
Q: XTC declined less today than Magna, Linamar, and even Martinrea. Would this be an appropriate way to invest in the auto sector?
