Q: PKI Parkland is off only 3% which is probably normal profit taking. On the other hand because I own it I wondered if there was news or sentiment I missed. Thank you.

Q: Re Amaya, AYA, from a technical point of view, there is a zone of resistance between about $5.75 to $6.13. It touched $6.11 in intra-day trading on March 31st but closed at $6.30. If prices close within, or more seriously, the resistance zone, watch out. However AYA may simply be caught up in the recent rout in the software sector. I would be inclined to hold depending on the fundamentals.
Q: Hi Peter:
Re: STN
I have a small position in Stantec intending to increase exposure over time at favorable pricing. I'm puzzled by its daily gyrations. One day up 2-3% the next down by a similar amount. For a steady-eddie kind of stock these movements strike me as being rather bizarre. Thoughts?
Thank you and kind regards,
Geoff

Q: To follow on the questions asked about Amaya Gaming today. I am not currently a holder of Amaya but have been looking to add to the sector. It appears alot of the down side risk is out of this stock. Would you consider this a good Buy Opportunity or would you wait for things to balance out a bit more?
Thanks Jon

Q: AYA Still dropping. I am not underwater yet with Amaya in my children's portfolios but wondering how far down before we let it go? Or are you still comfortable with at least 20% drop? Always apppreciate your views.
Q: Mr. Hodson, anything new on Amaya (AYA)? It keeps dropping. I'm sure many are disappointed and wonder whether it is still the value it used to be. Is there any development to come soon, likely to affect its future ?

Q: Hi Peter, I have 14 dividend paying diverse stocks of about the same weighting and have about 1500.00. Knowing your view of "BAD" I was thinking of adding it but it would be a smaller weighting. My question: in general is it worth adding to the current holdings or adding as small weighting in a new co. Thanks, Nick

Q: My question is regarding Imris. your response in Nov sounded fairly positive with the price at the time. it did have a nice jump early this year and has pulled back again. My question is at these prices has anything changed since your Nov response or is it a decent time to buy and is there any near term catalysts? lastly, the report on this company is almost 2 years old so what would you estimate the rating to be today at these levels?
Q: While I understand that you really like Stantec(STN), the market has been driving the shares down recently. Because your report on Stantec is somewhat dated could you please provide an analysis on the company in terms of earnings per share for the next 1-2 years, revenue growth, share valuation relative to historical trends, etc. What future catalysts do you see as influencing future share prices. Is there potential for the shares to continue downward to the $54 area where they were trading last October. At that price, they would be trading at about 15 times this year's expected earnings. What is a reasonable valuation for the company shares? As a secondary question how often do you anticipate updating company reports? Thanks.

Q: Trading/ Strategy Question: With the sizeable pullbacks today for CSU, AVO, ESL, HNL and BAD, would you see this as an opportunity to increase my position in any of these stocks, all of which are already owned - some at higher prices, others at lower prices. All are owned becuase of long term potential and are expected to be long term holds.
Q: Peter - ESL has been hammered lately, over 5% today. Any explanations on the background of the decline? Is this a good time to get in? I am looking at 3% to 5% position.
Thank You!
Thank You!
Q: When the market is hit by a pullback of momentum stocks, is it better to buy AVO or ENG, which was hit especially hard, or one of the ones that way only minimally affected?

Q: Hi,
Regarding BYD.DB, can you explain in some detail how this security will behave? Since it is trading well above its conversion price, my understanding is that its delta should be close to 100% of BYD.UN, but it will have 5.75% interest payments instead of the ~1.35% distribution? Does this not make it more attractive than holding BYD.UN? Can you also put into simple language the redemption features?
"On and after December 31, 2015 but prior to December 31, 2016, the Debentures may be redeemed by the Fund, in whole or in part from time to time, at the option of the Fund, at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding the Redemption Date (as defined herein), on not more than 60 days' and not less than 30 days' prior written notice, provided that the volume weighted average trading price of the Units on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the fifth trading day immediately preceding the date on which notice of redemption is given is not less than 125% of the Conversion Price. On and after December 31, 2016 but prior to the Maturity Date, the Debentures may be redeemed by the Fund, in whole or in part from time to time at the option of the Fund, at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding the Redemption Date, on not more than 60 days' and not less than 30 days' prior written notice. The Debentures may also be redeemed by the Fund in the event of the satisfaction of certain conditions after a Change of Control (as defined herein) has occurred.
