Q: Hi Peter & Team! Most of my investments are large cap stocks and I hold a well diversified portfolio. My TFSA represents a small portion of my overall portfolio and I'd like to add 3-4 stocks with some strong growth potential recognizing of course that I would be assuming some risk. Could you recommend some names for consideration at this time? Thank you, Ian

Q: I few years ago I purchased Torstar TS.b for about $9.00. I have seen it fall to about $5.00 and now it is up around $8.00. I have done well on other buys most recently thanks to you. I am thinking of selling and would appreciate your comments on selling and a replacement. Great work. I hope the driver that hit you was charged.

Q: July 10th gold opened up at $18 and held onto most of its gains. Gold stocks did not participate. There was news on PLG and FVI. Did not seem negative but they both dropped substantially. Any reason why these two stocks would fall that far with gold going up?

On a different topic VCM and DWI look impressive. Would you give them a good rating?
