Q: The recent chart for AC showed unremitting decline so I sold to lock in my gains. Also, I was concerned that rising oil prices would mean increased fuel costs for AC going forward. What is your outlook for AC ? Will the potential pilots strike at WJA have any effect on the price of AC ?

Q: Hi 5i
What is your reaction, in the shoes of a small retail investor, to the timing of a share issue while having full visibility to a results miss?
This is now the second time mgt has damaged share pricing; from which the price has not yet recovered from the prior issue.

I get we need to look long term but it looks like mgt behaviour is less aligned with investors lately.

Hopefully damage repair can happen sooner rather than later.

Thanks for your thoughts
Dave

• ECN Capital Corp. (ECN)

  • View Questions on ECN

Q: hello 5i:
with the understanding that they are worlds apart, and knowing that I am down substantially on ECN, would you think a switch to CTC.A would be a prudent move? Looking at a long term chart (5 years, or 10 years), and reviewing its earnings expectations (seem to meet or beat on an annual basis), it appears that CTC.A, is, at worst, fairly valued, and at best, lightly undervalued. Factoring in the Helly Hansen acquisition seems to make it look more undervalued. Your comment please, and I am NOT adverse to continuing to hold ECN.
thanks

Q: Gentlemen.
My understanding is that the weighting of given stocks in your potfolios is based on your comfort level with the underlying company. When you added GC it was at the 2.5% level (as opposed to some at 5%). It's now about 4%. Do you have any problem with this, or with it continuing to increase?
