Q: Hi Peter,
Regarding EQI; do you know when the #'s are to be released? Are they delayed until the annual & Special meeting?

Any advice for holders of EQI?

Thanks,

Q: Hello 5i
I have a small amount of $6000 left to invest in what I believe to be a balanced portfolio. I am trying to decide between vrx & csu although the higher stock cost vs the small amount of money seems silly. Would you pick either of these for growth or would there be a better choice for this amount of cash.

Thank you as alway
Craig

Q: Reading through my Enghouse 2013 Annual report. EPS of 0.94 which is up 15% over 2012. This implies a P/E of 33.85/.94 = 36 times. With duplicate growth in 2014 of 15% this implies a P/E of 33.85/.94 X 1.15 = 31 times. QUESTION - Does 31 times not seem a little rich for forward earnings?
Glad you put a limit on questions. Although occasionally insightful your time spent on company analysis is much more valuable. Thank you.

Q: Hello 5I,
What is your view on Horizon North (HNL)? They have recently made 2 announcements. There is obviously bad feelings over events of the last month but as a longer term hold and a play on oil sands & LNG are they a good company too own?

Cheers,
Bob Ahearn

Hello Peter
The Northwest Company NWC has been dropping but I am still up 13.4% and I am wondering if it would be prudent to just sell and take my profits.
Sadly my Liquor Stores LIQ is down 28% from my purchase price. Should I just cut my losses here and move on?
I am down $23K on LIQ and up $6K on NWC so the gain is more than offset by the loss.
I do think consumer stocks will continue to fare badly and other market sectors seem to me to have much more promise.
I am inclined to buy some of PZA, T, MIC, RUS, AFN, WCP with the proceeds if I sell either or both.
Regards and thanks....... Paul

Q: Just a comment, but whenever a company announces bad news like mccoy did yesterday and horizon north logistics did 3 weeks ago, for me this is a huge warning sign, i immediately sell and never return, your first loss is your best loss. There are so many great opportunities , why wait months until maybe these companies recover and that is a big maybe. I owned both mccoy and horizon and i am now long gone. I am averaging 16 per cent annual average return forthe last 10.5 years so i feel i know what i am talking about.have to disagree with you to hold mccoy, that was one awful announcement. Dave
