Q: This is a comment to Ian's question regarding the 1K investment for his son. I was just thinking that 13 stocks for a 1K portfolio is likely working against him.At $7 per trade (avg),he would be paying $91 in fees and starting his portfolio down 9-10%.I would think holding 3 to 4 top picks and building out your portfolio as you add more money would be more efficient.If i'm over stepping feel free to not post. This was only meant as constructive criticism.
Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
Do you still recommend ABT for income oriented accounts and, if so, is the recent price of near $6.00 a good entry point ??? Thank you, DL

Q: Good afternoon, I had moved everything to cash, believing that we were overdue for a bit of a correction, and also because I did quite well on atd and ccl. . Do you think a correction will occur when the honeymoon is over with Trump? I know no-one has a crystal ball, but do you think it is likely? If no, would you be content with the above choices for a moderate risk? I plan to keep my US in cash for now.
Thanks as always.

Q: I recently took a 1/2 position in Rogers Sugar and would like your take on their earnings just announced after the close today. Would it be a good time to complete the position, as it is still off its recent highs?
Many thanks for the great service. Don

Q: I hold HCG and MFA in TFSAs at 1.4 and 1.8 percent, respectively, of my & my husband's total portfolio. (combined calculation as recommended by 5i!) They are both down close to 30% since I bought them. Given their percentages, should I just leave them, or should I take my loss in one or both, and move on? Thanks for your help and support.
Q: Hi Peter and Team,
What is your view on Baytex Energy buying production assists in the Peace River Region of N. Alberta in a deal worth 65 m?
Is it positive or negative in terms of their operations and financial status. To my understanding their debt level is high.
Your comments appreciated.

Q: Greetings and best wishes to all. I have a small position in Niocorp (NB.

I would appreciate your thoughts on how this might proceed. Are they a buyout candidate, if not, can they successfully become a profitable operation? Thank you

Q: Further to my previous FYI post re ENERCARE and your response (thanks!).
I have since received a response directly from Enercare indicating that "they are building cash to deploy in their regular growth program (to build out the rentals and also the sub-metering business). It’s not necessarily to pay down debt in the short-term."
This just for further clarification directly from the company. To me this is better than issuing new shares directly into the market as it rewards current Shareholders with the 5.0% discount which to my knowledge is a fairly generous discount as compared to other discounts in the 2% - 3-% range.

Q: With reference to the new DRIP that was instituted. In your response you thought it was to pay down debt. The dividend was raised 16% in early 2015. If paying down debt was the priority why approve the raise in the first place. Is this new program indicative of a change in managements assessment of the company. Seems to be confusing signals. What would your take be on this move.
As always your considered opinion is greatly appreciated.

Q: I would like to add a growth stock to my TFSA. Looking at your growth portfolio I narrowed it down to one of SHOP, KXS, DBO, PLI, TNC or ZCL. In today's environment which one of these six stocks would you add? I am relatively diversified across all sectors, so sector is not an issue at this time.
I was originally leaning towards either SHOP or KXS. If you didn't select one of these from the six stocks listed above, which one out of these two would you pick?
The funds to purchase the growth stock will come from the sale of IPL or WCP in my TFSA. Of these two which would you sell to get the funds for the growth stock? p.s. I also own IPL and WCP in a non-registered account and plan to keep those.
