Q: hi folks:

read through the earnings report; looks as bad as most drillers/service firms do/will

Q: do you feel this likely is a survivor of this turndown?

(and any other comments you care to make)

thanks

Q: The tax loss selling season is fast approaching and the top name on my list is CPG. I bought CPG at $27.30 and I wonder from a TA standpoint does it have the momentum to hit $20.70 before YE?

I'm willing to take a $7 per share loss. Is it too optimistic? I almost pull the trigger the last time it went over $20, but "greed"/ "hope" pulled me back. I really want to unload this one before YE and move on. Please advise. Thanks.

Q: Thoughts on their earnings released just this hour. Missed on earnings and stock already hammered.

Any red flags regarding the sustainability of the company? Even if you lop off 20% of estimated 2015 earnings the stock is trading at 11x. How cheap have you seen these type of businesses get?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter and team, Seems HLF keeps reporting bad numbers mainly due to the strength of US$. So does this mean this company has no hope until the CDN$ strengthens? Isn't there something they can do about this? Anuhow your comments please and is it worth holding?

Q: Have you changed your thoughts on SODA at all? Can you comment on the recent quarter? Does lacklustre pretty much sum it up? And would you consider it to be a likely tax loss selling candidate?

Q: Hi,

Can you comment on the work involved in institutional analysis and also expand on your comment about the short position holder reactions to the earnings release at avo. I would have expected at least flat pricing after the Quarterly, but see it down now 14%, are short traders driving this? Also, rbc and cibc both changed their targets on the stock within 12 hrs of the earnings release, it seems quick for thorough review. Finally, was there anything on the conference call hosted by the CEO that you found interesting?

Thanks,

Eric

Q: I held WIN for income, which I thought was safe. Are there any stocks which yield 6%+, are outside the reit space and are better managed and "safer" than WIN. I'm thinking along the lines of calian tech, which I also hold.

A top 3 would be great.

Q: For 2015 AVO have predicted a 2015 adjusted diluted EPS of 0.79. This is less than the 2014 adjusted diluted EPS of 0.80.This is a 1% decline from last year
They have not predicted the IFRS diluted EPS figure. Assuming a stock price of 10$CDN this gives a P/E of 12.7 and a PEG ratio of Minus 12.7.

It seems many investors consider a positive PEG ration of 1 or less is a good buy.

What am I missing. Is the PEG ratio not reliable.
