Q: Boyd Automotive is a canadian company, but the majority of their business is done in the USA. With the Canadian dollar sinking fast and the US dollar rising, does that mean that Boyd's profits will be enhanced as they receive money in the stronger currancy? I'm thinking the improving US economy should also be good for Boyd?

Q: The stock has plummeted and management has been given the boot by the debt holders (albeit not until original management made out like lottery winners).
Do you know anything about new management and whether it is at all possible to turn this baby around. Would a commodity (gold, uranium) reversal of fortune help at all?

Q: Do you believe Avo has broken out of it's recent trading range with it's close on Friday? I maybe watching it too closely as it went through a key price gap at $18.93, just missed $19.60 and I think the next price gap is $ 24.89. I want to add on the way up to the momentum!

Q: In my last question to you I said that I was over-weight in financials due to the drop in prices of oil stocks. My holdings are AD 14.51%,Counsel 3.14%, DH Corp. 34.6%, EFN 11.77%,Fiera 5.4%, Gluskin GS 12.23% and HCG 18.30. I just bought HCG in the last week of Jan as it was down. Counsel was just a flyer. DH I bought at $18.40 in Apr 2012. I would like to trim something and would like your suggestion. Olso pls keep in mind that I intend to add to my portfolio in Feb so that will also lessen the weight of the financials. Thanks in advance. Gary

Q: From what I've read today (01/02/15) it seems the reason why oil appreciated on Friday is because of the strike by "USW". It's a nation wide strike. If I remember correctly the last time the "USW" went on strike an agreement wasn't reached until after a month. If this is the reason why oil spiked on Friday what do you make of it?
Q: Hi Peter and team
I hope you can help with this dilemma. I want to open an RESP account for my grandchild and I have like to hold Uas stocks in this account. I have been told by RBC DI that they only set up CAD accounts in RESP's. Do you or any members out there know of what alternatives I have to do this? If there is such a possibility does it qualify for the CESG having USD stocks?

Q: do you think this would still be okay to buy? thanks
Q: I would like to know which Company bought the Rights to Pennsaid, Also, I read that Nuvo reacquires 2% Rights of Pennsaid. I know this is an excellent product, it works wonders for me, it is a bit expensive, but worth it.
Q: This is in reference to the 5i reply to my question on NRI. Fabrice Taylor recently appeared on BNN and said they had $6 in cash. Is that correct. If so can a stock fall much below cash value as it is already at 4.51. What about the other products they are getting money for which are already in the market. Would they count for something. I already own stock with average price of 6.1. Should I bail out and take a loss at this point or wait or waiting could result in more losses.
Q: You mentioned that Nuvo had about 10 million in cash and that more downside is likely. I thought they had over $50 million in cash and that the current price reflected cash /share which would be approximately the floor. Please advise.
Q: To register for the webinar one must register to Questrade who have the authority to contact you. I already have an account set up, so I really don't want have to deal/talk with them. My question ... Is the webinar available for view immediately after the live show ends?
Thanks,
