Q: In 2015 your growth portfolio was down 4.8% and your income portfolio was down 5.5% as a result I would have expected your balanced portfolio to have declined yet it was up 9.5%
Could you explain that outperformance?

Q: What am I missing about PBH: high crazy debt, low ROE, high P/R . High interest rates must be hurting them with all this debt. I never bought because it always seems expensive. My neighbour and his LP have held 7% shares for many years - bought low single digits. I should have listened to him all those many years ago - LOL.. Too expensive to buy now as I can get better returns in banks: capital and compounding dividends. Just curious on your comments. I thought ofd buying at $79.00 and, of course did not do so.

Q: All three stocks have been setting higher highs and higher lows since mid April. Have you heard any news on why these three stocks are having a positive uptrend recently? All three have crossed the 50 and 200 day moving averages. Clayton

Q: I know how positive you are on this stock, many guests on BNN and elsewhere also favour it, and I have done well on it (thanks to you). I also know a great company and a great share price can stay out of sync for awhile. Do you think the share price is languishing solely because of the Fed's legislative changes, and if so, how many "show me" good quarters is it likely to take to approach the old highs? Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: If oil were to get above $80 plus what would your top 3 producers be with high leverage to barrel price? Would Saturn be a strong consideration?

Q: Dear amazing 5i employee,

I trust that you are well!

An analyst at 5i noted (in answer to one of questions) that there are dozens of trading opportunities available in the market right now. Would you be able to list some of those opportunities? By trading opportunities I mean simple trades (buy low, sell high).



Yours kindly,
David

Q: NBLY is definitely the sorriest holding that I have. Down basically every week since early March.

Has not moved 1 iota in the face of the current market upswing.

Although you guys continue to tout their great earnings outlook in 24 and 25, others, I'm sure have the same info.

There must be a reason for this sad state of affairs with NBLY.

Can you comment please.

Q: Hope you and the team (and readers) had a nice long weekend.

What looks “cheap” to you right now? I recognize that sometimes things are cheap for a reason. But in your view, what has been punished too much and likely to appreciate from here? 3m was one that I was considering as it is still down quite a bit and will recover in a better market (I assume—as everything seems to have its day). Thanks,

Jason
