Q: What is you current view on HWD in conjunction with the U.S housing market? I see two analysts on TD Waterhouse call it a Strong Buy. HWD increased their quarterly dividend. Is there potentially more upside ?

Thank You for your help

Q: Hi Peter, For a retirement portfolio needed after 5 to 7 years, can you please recommend a) a mix of equities versus bonds / fixed income, b) the percentage of Canadian vs us vs international equities c) a sector mix.

Q: I have a small position (2%) in Senvest stock, which is a montreal-based value hedge fund. They have been growing book value quickly, recently to $305 while the share price is about $190. Barron's just listed them as #2 in their top 100 hedge funds ranking. I'm wondering if you have heard of these guys and whether you endorse them as fund managers or have heard otherwise, because I am thinking of taking it up to a 4% allocation. Thanks!

I am looking at both CNR and CLR which have each pulled back around 20% recently. Which of the two would you prefer over the next 1-2 years? Or, perhaps you have a better suggestion? Thanks for the great service.

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.

Thank you
