Q: My apologies for asking another question but I am stumpet re holding a small amount of the Cineplex recent convtible. I asked for a larger amount and only received a really small amount of bond. Would it not be wiser just to sell it? The conversion seems so unappealing and although 4% I may as well buy the common or similar? Your good opinion please.

Q: HLF shares are down around 5% today. The company has announced approval of a "normal course issuer bid (NCIB)". Would the news on the NCIB be the reason for the downturn of the stock price?
Thank you.

Q: Just a comment, but what happened to horizons north logistics was insider information being released before the public had any idea what was happening,the management of this company should be brought to justice. I was a large shareholder at a very low price so i did all right, but for a companys share price go from 10 to 8.25 in 7 or 8 trading days on no news when everyone called the company still cheap including peter hodson and then have the horrible earnings announcement which brought the stock down to the low sevens is an insult and frankly an outright crime.i sold my shares in the low sevens and will never be back. The management of this company at best are lowlifes. Dave

Q: How do you determine an entry point for a growth company such as ESL? Do you go in at market and ride it up or would you wait for a pullback to say the 50 day moving average? What I am asking, it seems to me that the buy point for a growth company is determined differently from a value stock? Thank you.

Q: I purchased MDA in August ($80x200sh) and it's done some sideways action since then, with the exception of the last few days where it's flirting with the $75 mark. On Friday, I purchased $30,000 of it in my margin account. I know you've rated it as a A- stock, but I'm wondering whether the interest charge and sudden decline is worth the risk.
Could it signify a "leak" like HNL?
I'm wondering if I should just sell before there's any further decline.
Your comments please...

Q: My cost on HNL is $6.15. It is trading today at $7.03, still some profit there but nothing like it was. Is this company done or is there more upside after this settles down. Can management be trusted? Is the dividend safe? I am a longterm investor and will hang on if it is worth it.

Thank you for the wonderful service that you provide.

Q: Further to HNL, very simply, for those who own the stock, sell / switch to something else, or hold? Thanks.

Q: HNL sure smells bad with todays warning and last week's decline. Do you see this as indiciative of future problems that warrant selling the stock? Or is this a buying opportunity?

Thanks,

Q: Just a further question/comment on the news from HNL. Over the past few days, before the announcement, the stock has been heading significantly lower. While it all could be a coincidence, it smells like that this information was leaked or there was some insiders were dumping their shares before today's announcement. Thoughts ?
