Q: A number of times my questions/answers have come up as private, yet I do not "click" on the Private Question.
Just curious.

Q: Hi Peter
RE: reducing weight in Financials and adjusting to non dividend companies.
I am very overweight in Financials and well balanced otherwise in other sectors except Gold and Energy. I would like to trim the former into opportunities for growth.
Can you suggest 3 companies that have been had some "correction" but remain good picks for future growth ? (prefer non-dividend)
Thanks,
Peter

Q: I have 3 big losers in my US account, MITT, IPCI and IVR. MITT and IVR pay good dividends and the stock price loss over the last few years has been mitigated by the great dividend. I would like to sell each of these stocks and buy a good US growth ETF. These are the only stocks I have in the US account. Can you suggest a good ETF? I am retired so any one with a dividend would be nice but not essential.
Thanks for your great service

Q: Hello,

I currently have $3,500 dollars invested in CIB486 (Unfortunately half of my portfolio) in my TFSA. I also hold positions in PHO, COV, and GUD. I am in my early 20's, looking at a long-term hold, with a high-risk tolerance. I am thinking it is probably best to sell? If so where do you suggest going?

Thanks for the advice!

Q: Hi Peter and Team
I am retired and have only "passive" income in my company investment portfolio but hold an overweight in financials (>35%) such as GWO
With the new budget proposals, I am considering reducing my high dividend financials and purchasing non dividend companies that have a better growth profile, especially after last month's downturn.
Can you suggest 3 positions that I might consider after trimming the positions in my banks and financials??
Your advice as always appreciated
Peter

Q: Hello,

My question is on Intermap Technologies. The company had issues with their former CEO and a failed contract which landed them into debt. A new CEO has taken over since Sept 2017. The company looks to be turning a corner with increasing revenue Y/Y and they are now generating positive cash flow. The past two quarters they have earned 11c EPS USD (7c Q3, 4c Q4). They company is trading less than 5x these two quarters. Company has 220M in NOL, plus I believe their combine tangable and Intangible assets are at least equal to long term (Interest free) debt and other liabilities.

I like the fact the company has a low share count of approx 16 so any good news could make this stock jump quickly. However, the volume and lack of interest concerns me.

Can I please have your thoughts on this company and why the "the street" is ignoring them?

Thank you! I look forward to your reply.

Sincerely,
Michael
