Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I appreciate you view on the Hudbay minerals announced offer to buy any or all of its outstanding US$920 million aggregate principal amount of 9.500% senior notes due 2020. I own some of these bonds and I feel their offer is not attractive enough to redeem. What is the risk of not tendering? Do you think HDB can survive to pay those bonds?I don't mind holding the bonds until maturity, unless you think that HBM will not survive until then?If I tender what would would be reasonable replacement.

Thamks,

Q: I’m looking to add the equivalent of about 1 full position to consumer cyclicals.

I currently hold DHX.B (2.9%), AW.UN(3.4%), QSR(2%), CGX(2.4%). Right now I care about total returns and I lean towards profitable companies which pay, and regularly increase, dividends. I am not opposed to swapping out companies or adding in new ones though I do tend towards the buy & hold philosophy.

Your thoughts on this list, other options in the sector and where to introduce the new cash would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Gord

Q: Peter, these are stocks that I believe you have recently suggested for growth. Some have had decent pullbacks in price. Can you please rank these, based on today's prices, for purposes of long-term capital and income gains in a TFSA. And, if you have an alternative current favourite to add, please add it to the rankings. Thank you!

Q: I have a portfolio consisting of mostly stocks, but also some etf's (ex IWO, ZPR, etc...) and BRK.B. Could you offer some advice on how the ETFs and conglomerate companies fit in to overall sector allocations? For example, in my case I have very little consumer discretionary exposure via stocks, but obviously some through IWO & BRK.B. I'm trying to figure out the best way to measure these for sector allocation purposes.

As always, thanks for the great service.

Q: Hi 5i: I want to add to my small holdings of mid-cap oil stocks when the OPEC bounce subsides. I have looked at WCP and RRX. How would you rate these - I wish to focus on light oil producers? Do you have any other suggestions - I am interested in growth not dividends? Many thanks.
