Q: Acadian Timber ADN keeps moving higher. Earlier in year management was making references to possible transactions to grow business. Those references seem to have been eliminated from recent reports. Are you aware of anything causing recent strength in stock price? Are there rumours you have heard?

Q: I currently own one half positions in EH and Avigilon. Which would you "top up" if you had to pick one? I'm wondering if AVO will get cheaper in the near future with tax loss selling?

Q: Hello 5i team,

It was announced yesterday AYA and California based tribes are joining forces along with a number of poker clubs to operate a licensed online poker site in California once legislation is enacted to authorize iPoker.

Is this legislation authorizing "iPoker" in California a done deal? And if so, doesn't this open up an incredibly large revenue stream for AYA with such a large population having access to online poker via Poker Stars? And does this announcement have anything to do AYA's 6.5% increase (and still climbing) today?

Thanks for all you do

Gord

ps... my portfolio allocation for AYA is now at 8.1%. Should I trim this position or hold fast?

Q: I have owned Boyd fro a while and am very pleased with your recommendation to purchase it. One thing that has always perplexed me about it though, is its name. For a 'income fund', it pays a rather paltry 1% dividend. Do you continue to recommend it because in the past it has been an income grower and therefore you expect it to eventually pay closer to 3% (which I would expect from an income fund) or is that just by the fact that it grows its dividends, the stock rises and there will are cap gains expectations? Or is it both?

Thanks so much for the education you provide.

Q: I have just been advised by my broker (Scotia iTrade) that the special dividend is for shareholders who tendered before Nov 15 and that my only option now is to wait to see what the final offer is. Or sell right now to the market. Which is preferred? You can be assured the final offer won't be $.40.
