I own Bip.un as well as some Gif.un for infrastructure exposure (div & growth). Gif.un has performed very poorly since inception and bip.un has been great. I was going to add to my bip.un holdings at this level for a long-term hold (3-5 years) and sell my gif.un to fund it. what do you think of that strategy? stay with winner and sell the loser...
Thank you

Q: He!lo Team, I'm curious about the motivation of DRT to raise money. I can see it if they were doing aquisitions but I think I read that the funds were going to be used to fund operations. As a growing and profitable company could they not have funded growth from cashflow? Is this not a negative on some metrics? Your insight is welcomed!
Thanks
Dave

Q: Home Capital Group: I am now down 16.4%. Bought it at $51.19. Given all your other most recent replies to other members, is it worth holding onto? Is it likely to recover, and become a good decent growth stock? Or should I cut my losses and sell it? (It's in a registered account.) If so, what should replace it as a growth stock? Also, Open Text has been declining in the past 2 weeks. I'm down 4$. Is it worth holding onto?

Q: Hi Team,
What are your thoughts on Bitgold?The BNN interview this morning made complete sense to me.Is this a place for wait and see how foolproof the execution of their vision and how the algorithm runs in practice.Do you see any flaws in the model.

Q: For fixed asset allocation in ones portfolio, can an allocation of say 20% of cash availble for investment be put in paying off a portion for mortgage (for those of us who still have one!)..The remaining 80% would be invested in stocks..does this make sense or is a combination stocks and bonds recommended.

Also in instances where one gets a lumpsum of cash for investment (long term), can flow through shares be used? Note: This lumpsum will result in one being put in the highest tax bracket. How does one effectively use Flow through share it as it is very risky in nature?
