Q: Good Morning Peter and team, I'm holding a number of stocks which I could charitably classify as "dogs". They include, ZAR,MGO,RET.A,NGD,TCK.B. All of these now make up less than 1% of my portfolio. On the brighter side I do have a few winners. (Thanks 5I) I'm up to 9% on CSU and 7.5% on ESL. Should I sell all of the dogs and trim back to 5% or so on the winners or should I try cover more of my losses and sell all of my winners. I would then buy back to 5% in 30 days. Thanks for your advice. Rod

Q: In response earlier today you indicated insiders own 9%. AGM info and 2014 press releases indicate Oakwest Corportation (Beutel Family Office) owns 29%/31% respectively. Would you view Beutel family involvement as positive, negative or neutral?
Q: You thoughts on the asset sale to Bell would be appreciated, in particular how this may change free cash flow (and dividend protection) going forward and is this not also setting up the value of the company in the event of a buy-out?
The sale price for Movie Central, Encore and HBO Canada was $211 million. They state that this was derived by taking adjusted 2015 segment EBITDA multiple for Pay TV of 6.7x.
Fiscal 2015 Corus had $260 million of TV segment profit.
Even ignoring the value of the radio stations (let's say that they wash out against 'Corporate' and other costs in the event of a break-up or buy-out), wouldn't this put the value (based on what Bell paid for the above) of the remaining TV component at $1,530 million ($260 million x 6.7 - $211 million), or above $17.50/share? Or am I taking a too simplified view of the break-up value of the assets?

Q: Could you comment please on the sale of Allstream. How does the deal rate? Does the sale impact MBT growth prospects and does the Allstream sale make it likely BCE or Telus would / could buy MBT soon? Thanks so much.
Q: May I have your thoughts on the recently announced PGD $7M rights offering announcement. They just raised $15M last October. This one seems rather convoluted. The combined resulting dilution from both rights offering appear excessive.
Thanks Mike

Q: Hello -
I am considering selling my Diageo PLC stock and replacing it with either ADW.A or CSW.A for currency/account reasons. Which of those two makes the best long term investment for a dividend growth investor.
Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i: The stock market situation has changed a lot since I last did any rebalancing. Could you therefore tell me what weights you would now recommend for the 10 TSX sectors. Also, what sectors would you assign to MAL and BOS which Morningstar calls Basic Materials, and to DRT which Morningstar calls Services. Many thanks.
Q: On Nov 20, 2015 you replied to Herbert "Because the Caisse's interest is directly into a subsidiary, there is not dilution in the usual sense in terms of shares issued. BBD will get capital, and simply own less of the unit. BBD has also asked the Federal government for money."
1) I am trying to understand. If BBD own less, doesn't that mean BBD shareholders will own less, get less of the revenue/earnings pie and in the end, result in some of shareholder dilution?
2) Additionally, I have to believe that with all the money this company is getting from government bodies that this will also create further dilution (unless it is money that is invested to protect jobs..) ?
Thanks.
