Q: Hi Peter, I still hold it from the growth portfolio. I did not sell when you asked to sell. Anyways, as they halted trading on TSX I called RBC Direct Investing. They asked me to call the Investor Relations of Guestlogix. Anyways, I called but could not get hold of anyone at their IR department. Although the receptionist told me to go to this PWC site.

I could not decipher what PWC is saying here, Are this guys bankrupt? The receptionist told me that they are going to get financed again by May 8.
Anyways, I still hold 9756 shares of it. Is it worth zero? I saw today at RBC Direct Investing that they started selling at US gray market with ticker GUESF. Should I just sell it with 7 cents a share? Or hold until end of May? What does this creditor protection mean? Does not mean that they are bankrupt and PWC is liquidating their asset to pay their creditors? Please suggest.

Q: I am a conservative, retired, dividend-income investor with a well balanced portfolio.
I have a half-position in TRP. With the future share offering occurring at $45.75, should I wait to "leg in" some more OR is the offering price this low to provide incentive for the financing boys?
I like TRP for the guidance provided on dividend growth until 2020, not to mention the current amount of the dividend.
Also, would you add to WSP at these current levels?
Thanks,
Steve

Q: I have a growth oriented portfolio that includes AD, CXR, CXI, DHX.B, KXS, GUD, NFI, OTC, PHM and SIS amongst a few larger stocks. I am committed to holding these long term and won't need the money for at least 20 years, but I want to have a strategy in place.
What does the end game for this type of portfolio usually look like? 10 years from now will some of these stocks be negative and one or 2 have gains over 1000%? At what point do you recommend selling off stock?

Q: Hi Peter.

Q: For companies with US dollar distributions (such as BEP.un and TRI), is it better to hold them in registered or non-registered accounts?
I am under the impression that companies with distributions in US dollars are better held in registered accounts, to avoid the US withholding tax. At the same time, dividends from Canadian companies are taxed preferentially if kept in non-registered accounts.
What should I do with BEP.un and TRI?
Thanks for this tremendous website and service!

Q: Hello Peter,
Do you think the surge in metals is on an upward swing for a while as teck and hudbay keep rising higher and higher? Also, would you say natural gas stocks will continue to be pegged to oil stocks or do you think they will be considered a sector on their own? lastly, if you had a choice between gold stocks and base metals like teck,, would you rather focus on gold given the low interest environment or would you put half and half. Thanks very much.

Q: Could you please provide your feedback on DR's Q4 and F2015 earnings released today. What are the valuation metrics (P/E, P/CF, etc.) and outlook for this company?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Q: Would you comment on their recent YE report please. Seems earnings growth has certainly slowed. Thank you.
Q: An RRSP portfolio has been designed with some ETFs and high yield/dvd payers/growers based on some of your recommendations I've picked up over time. The yield is required for withholdings so its a delicate balance between high yield for a safe distribution and increasing yield potential. Holdings listed below.
Do any of these concern you as too high risk? Considering switching the weakest 1-2 to ECI which should have more short term growth potential given the accretive acquisition value that is not being reflected at this time. Many of these are under water but some have had some good short term momentum.
CSU.DB, AI, TMC, AD, ENF, BPF.UN, BIP.UN, BEP.UN, BPY.UN, DIV, DRA.UN, EIF, NVU.UN

Q: I have a small amount of cash to add to an existing position. Would you add to WSP or NFI today?
Q: Hello Peter,
I consider stocks such as chartwell and jean coutu to be fairly stable over a 3 to 5 year time frame. If these types of stocks go up 15 percent in a short time (less than 6 months), is it better to sell half a position and consider buying it back when it pulls back or it is best just to hang on to it for the long run? Also, to add to my gold and resource position, i was thinking of adding to sprott inc, but for some reason, the stock has not moved. I understand you worked at Sprott but i am using it as an example of a asset management company that specializes in precious metals and resource stocks. thanks very much.

Q: Hi,
Is it time to get back into industrials? or should I wait? If so, can you recommend a couple names in both CDN and U.S. stocks or efts that pay a decent dividend, are large cap, good value and suitable for holding for at least two years.
