Q: Good day, I understand (from your responses to other questions) that you like EFN, and, looking back a few months ago, it was that you held in your model portfolio (and switched out of it just before it dropped somewhat significantly), my question is this, at what price will you find it compelling value to add back into your portfolio? Thanks.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
GMP Capital hit a new annual low today on tremendous volume. I guess it is heavily correlated to the price of oil? If so can I expect it to fall further if oil does? I hate selling at the bottom...maybe on a green bounce...no harm or great risk in holding for awhile? Please give your current opinion.

Q: Hello 5i Team, I would like to reduce my financial sector holdings from the current 19% to 15% or less, mostly as a defensive move against the potential of a sector "down-draft". Currently hold POW-2.0%, IFC-3.0%, MFC-2.5%, and BNS,TD,and RY at 3.5% each. I am leaning towards eliminating POW and trimming each of the banks to get to the target (income from POW is great but also the only one I am underwater on and I'm not a huge fan of income at the expense of loss of capital), but I also know you don't feel the need to necessarily hold 3 banks so could just sell RY and call it quits. Trading fees not a consideration. Would appreciate your thoughts as always,

Regards

Q: My holdings in the banks are pretty well equal. Circumstances have arisen which require me to decide whether I should shift this balance against the most overvalued to the most undervalued, if there is a worthwile difference among them for a long term holder. Would you be inclined to rank them and indicate whether your order represents significant differences?
