Q: Due to the recent pull back, I have a few riskier symbols. I am considering buying one or two of them. I would be willing to give up a bit of growth to cut down on the risk - so here they are: PTS, PLI, FLY, HYG and MNW, ARTX-US. Which two would you say are the best? Thank you. Dennis

Q: WSP Global
In the news today: WSP Global is acquiring Focus, a Canadian engineering & geomatics company. WSP is also doing a bought deal of commons (~$180 million value) - shares offered at $33.75. The offering closed very quickly. I missed it.

What do you think of this acquisition? Do you think their intent is to grow by acquisition? I would like to see solid evidence of organic growth as well. Their earnings, also out today, were okay.

Do you think the price will drop to $33.75 (or a bit lower) with the stock issuance? I would like to add to my position (got in at $30.51).

Any plans by I to do a WSP report?

I'm really enjoying my 5i membership - your dedication to responding to questions is awesome!

Thanks,
Heather

Q: CKI report today "Adjusting solely for the estimated gain on sale of the Freight Transport Business (to be recognized in the first quarter of 2014) and reflecting the Common Shares outstanding as at March 6, 2014, the Company estimates that its pro forma book value per share is $11.72 of which 75% is held in cash and marketable securities. The Company's current trading price represents a 34% discount to this pro forma book value per share as at March 6, 2014."
Sounds like a bargain and price is popping. What is the view of the report by 5i please.

Q: I have a question about Surge Energy, SGY. From your comments and answers to other questions, you seem to like the company and speak favourably of it. My question is, SGY is not an "official" recommendation. What is it about the company that keeps you from formally recommending it? Does it have deficiencies or risks that concern you? Thanks again for your help.

Q: My specific question is on CXR: Concordia Health. It is down 16% over last 5 days and I can find no reason for it. I have searched my best sources--CNW, the TSX site, Google Finance and Globe and Mail and cannot find anything---is there a problem?

My general question is on length of time or % down something goes before I take action if I can find no reason for the change in valuation. I have at times used 10% as I thought that should elminate most market action. Is there a number you would recommend?
