Q: Hi team ,
Once again Pinterest is crashing. I was hopeful things were on the uptrend with the name lately. Is this another earnings over reaction? I thought the Amazon partnership was quite interesting for transforming the platform into a e-commerce enabled site…potentially very lucerative once it gets going. But, market not liking results. Should I keep patience with this name or dump? Part of the reason I was holding was I believed this name will be taken over at some point at a much higher share price.

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: Monday I put in an open order to buy CSU, 10 Shares, on opening… The order filled at a price $40.00 dollars higher than their recorded opening price and higher than it had been recorded to trade at, for the last year… The bank ( BNS) tells me that they can do this, as I didn’t order 100 shares ( 1/4 million dollars worth) or put in a limit order…. This smells a lot…

Q: Hi - with WSP release date coming up May10th, what would be your expectations around the coming year? Do you think there is a strong chance that they at least re-affirm the current year expectations? Or do you worry that they are going to be the next in line to lower expectations? Or (crossing fingers) are you confident that their business outlook/backlog is strong? Thank you as always!

Q: Dear Peter,

This question is based on your excellent article in Canadian Money Saver Nov/Dec 2015! How time flies, eh?! Titled: Setting up a US income portfolio with call options.

Several years ago I had asked if you have written any follow articles on this strategy? If you have, please post the links for all of your subscribers. That would be helpful.

But my question is this:
Based on the criteria that you highlighted in that article if you had to choose Five stocks what would those stocks be today?

I am semi retired senior citizen who can allocate 10-15% of my portfolio to this strategy.

Many thanks in advance.
Mano.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you give a brief explanation of what VMS is. Also is this the main component of all three: CSU, Topicus and Lumine. I have some understanding of the operations of these three companies but am still somewhat confused as to their differences from each other. Are there any major competitors and if so could you name a couple. Thanks.

Q: Hi there, I've been holding nxpi at a loss for about 2 years now and I'm getting fed up. I am into it at about $200 a share. Would you suggest that I hold? It had a run up to the $180s in Feb but has since fallen back. I find it painful as it seems to fall all the time. Should I hold and wait and see or move on? Thank you,

Jason

Q: You have taken some heat on WELL and some other small caps, so I thought we would throw in a comment for some balance. In mid March I was thinking of taking a flyer on FRC and you were very cautious about such an idea. You said, and I paraphrase, 'we don't like stocks than can potentially go to zero'. That was enough to keep me on the sidelines. Now, FRC is down about 65% since then, and might not make it through the weekend. I wanted to thank you for your advice, and sometimes the 'don't buys' are good as or better than the buy ideas. Thank you for your service and keep up the good work.

Q: Hi Team,
What’s your thoughts on Ats share price currently? Is it a buy going into earnings or a bit risky at todays valuation? Share price seemed to be consolidating lately , but recently bouncing up some again now to new highs . What do you predict with upcoming earnings for the company? Do you still feel the company is set to be performing well for the foreseeable future?

Thanks
Shane
