Q: Hello Peter :
I'm curious to know what you think about this:

BlackBerry (BB.TO) recently ousted Thorsten Heins as CEO in November and now has John Chen at the helm of the company. Since that time the stock has been steadily increasing with slow and steady short term growth. Chen has announced a new BlackBerry (Q20) taking the company back to its core business and what it does best...the QWERTY keyboard, which will be released the second half of 2014. Do you see this stock as a short-term hold for a quick profit turnaround until the launch of the Q20 and before first sales numbers are released or would you buy in now and hold for a longer period of time?
Thank You.........Paul

Q: Another question about BLD. Is it getting frankly ridiculous? Up 250% in two months? 20% today alone after 13% yesterday? I know you've expressed a lack of confidence in this stock, and I know electric batteries have some enthusiasm behind their movement, but I'm not seeing others in the industry rise this swiftly on no real news. Do you have any idea what's driving it and would it be incredibly dangerous to jump aboard?

Q: Peter,
I know you don't think highly of DWI's(Dragonwave) management. But on valuation and potential for their product, is it worth $1.50? I sold around $2.00 and just got back in.
What do you think of PXL (Palliser Oil)? Will it be a survivor?
Lastly, NII (Norsat) is trending up. What do you think of this stock?

Thanks for the great work. Keep it up. You and your team bring great value to the investment public.

John

Q: As a shareholder of Constellation Software (CSU), I wonder why they don't do a stock split this would encourage more small shareholders to buy in, not many people want to buy 10 or 15 shares. Their volume each day is very low and it seems that this can allow a few shareholders to affect the stock price. Recently on no news other than some analyst from RBC downgrading the company from a buy to a hold the stock had a large drop. Would you have any comments? Thanks

Q: re: BBRY... Just read an article as I have been watching BBRY and Mr. Chen' actions very closely. Things appear to be starting to change and BlackBerry announced some very prestigious customers upgrading to BES10 and to BB10 devices. BlackBerry also announced that BBM will be made available for Nokia's (NOK) X platform and Microsoft's (MSFT) WP8. So now BBM will be available for every smartphone platform. And Ford (F) has officially decided to drop Microsoft and use BlackBerry's QXN solution, to power its Sync mobile-phone multimedia software beginning in 2016. Now that BBRY bankruptcy seems to be in the past and with new management starting to get rolling, the writer posted a target of $18 - $20 for this year.

Can you comment on this and what you think BlackBerry' future looks like in your opinion?

Thank 5i
