Q: re CA:SW SWIR - M2M & IofE.... for 5i research & family

Went by Sierra Wireless head office in Richmond BC. Beautiful very large building. Very busy place with tons of security. Sat in large lobby and talked with a couple of suppliers waiting to meet with SW contacts. Each said SW was enjoying a very positive attitude with lots going on in building relationships & R&D. And they appear to be working with all the big players in the M2M EofI technology sector including Cisco.

Technicals for SWIR were very flat between Jan 05 & Aug 2013. Since Aug however stock has seen a 59% increase and in the past month a 21% upside to where it sits today at $25.42. I am wondering if this chart is not going to look incredibly good over the next 2 - 5 years and beyond.

In previous reports 5i has mentioned a bit of a checkered past regarding performance for SW but lots of cash on hand. You also mentioned it isn't cheap @ 30+ times earnings. But I can't help thinking M2M technology makes incredible sense and is something we are going to see take off in a big way in the not so distant future.

Does the 5i team have any idea when that future may be? And what about a bigger player coming in and taking SW out... is that something of a possibility?

Thanks 5i... appreciate the forum big time

Q: Hi, I have been slowing adding your model portfolio to my stocks and I am somewhat concerned about Magna ( MG) and Constellation Software (CSU) seeing how they have climbed quite fast as of late. I am wondering if they are fully valued and whether or not I should wait for a pull back for these two.

Q: My portfolio is light on technology stocks (5%). I own SYZ. Are there other options in the sector with a 3-5% dividend, which you could recommend? Being retired, I'm seeking income and some decent growth.
Thanks for the great service.

Q: Good Comments on CSU. If they do an equity financing which will cover the cost of Total Specific Solutions (recent company purchased)what would be the expected % of share dilution that current share holders could expect? Since this info is now in the market place will this put a short term top on stock?

Thanks as always

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
