Investment Q&A

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

Q: Peter, I asked a question yesterday PM. & received the answer this early AM. Fabulous service. On the other hand, I asked a question about 10 days ago on STB & am still waiting for your reply. I didn't bother to enquire before because of your note concerning possible delays. My earlier STB question again concerned the continuing monthly purchase by SNCF of nearly 100,000 shares & now represent over 10% of issued securities.
I have a substantial investment in STB (for monthly income only & have protected the downside) however, I just find it unusual that a very large France based conglomerate would continue to invest nearly 1mm a month in this really small SchoolBus Co.???? As ever, your expertize is appreciated.

Q: Help! I'm torn between panicked selling of Canexus so I don't lose the remaining investment, and feeling with 40% down I might as well stay the course and hope to loss a little less later on. Any advice?

Q: re CA:SW SWIR - M2M & IofE.... for 5i research & family

Went by Sierra Wireless head office in Richmond BC. Beautiful very large building. Very busy place with tons of security. Sat in large lobby and talked with a couple of suppliers waiting to meet with SW contacts. Each said SW was enjoying a very positive attitude with lots going on in building relationships & R&D. And they appear to be working with all the big players in the M2M EofI technology sector including Cisco.

Technicals for SWIR were very flat between Jan 05 & Aug 2013. Since Aug however stock has seen a 59% increase and in the past month a 21% upside to where it sits today at $25.42. I am wondering if this chart is not going to look incredibly good over the next 2 - 5 years and beyond.

In previous reports 5i has mentioned a bit of a checkered past regarding performance for SW but lots of cash on hand. You also mentioned it isn't cheap @ 30+ times earnings. But I can't help thinking M2M technology makes incredible sense and is something we are going to see take off in a big way in the not so distant future.

Does the 5i team have any idea when that future may be? And what about a bigger player coming in and taking SW out... is that something of a possibility?

Thanks 5i... appreciate the forum big time
