Q: Hi 5i, OMG what's with Wilan. Is it time to throw in the towel. As everything else that's decent continues to grind higher, this dog in my portfolio sends me around the bend. Is it time to take my loss or is there anything you know coming. I feel that after holding this for years now I will sell and up it will go. lol Thanks as always, you guys, girls are wonderful.

Q: Re GIB.A: is this an example of noise from sell side analysts?
"Deutsche Bank downgraded CGI Group to Sell saying the company's aggressive accounting has driven much of the reported margin improvement. The firm says CGI's top line growth is weak and lowered its price target for shares to $24 from $32." (Sept.3)
What I don't understand is: why not just say the outlook for the company is poor or shares are overvalued rather than smear the company's accountants? Any thoughts? J.

Q: I'm looking at allocating 10% of my overall portfolio to variable income securities that provide some inflation protection and decent fixed income returns. I was looking at ZPR and ZRE etfs as candidates - splitting them evenly at 5% a piece. I know ZPR has rate reset preferred shares which should provide some protection and ZRE seems oversold. Also, would I be better off buying HR.UN instead of ZRE because it holds longer term low interest rate debt than some of the REITS held in ZRE? Your comments please.

Q: Hi Peter:
I have owned shares of National Bank for about 2 years, it pays a 4% nice dividend and the stock is slowly edging up near a 52 week high, knowing that Sept and Oct months are usually not kind to the stock market, I wonder if selling half of the position and re-investing it when the market corrected would be a good move ? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter
Can you give us your opinion on AHF Aston Hill Financial
Can you give us your opinion on AHF Aston Hill Financial
Q: Good morning. I am thinking of adding to my financial holdings and have read your recent comments on BNS, TD, FSZ, SLF, GWO, and MFC all of which I hold for a 10% financial weighting. I'm thinking of adding to MFC to bring it's weighting up to SLF and GWO and total of 12% for the group. MFC is improving and 5i seems to be warming up to it. I think MFC may be getting close to rebuilding it's dividend as well.
I would appreciate your opinion on this purchase as well as the weightings overall.
Once again, many thanks for your input.

Q: Hello Peter and the 5I team
I have watched MRC and MEQ for some time, they don't seem to ever trade above book value. I realize that they pay either no div or a very low div, is this the reason why they trade fairly low compared to their P/B ratio? I expect that most real estate investors prefer REITs because of the Higher Div. Do you ever see a point when these companies will trade above their book value? Both companies have decent balance sheet's in my opinion? Whats are your thoughts on these companies?
