Q: I can imagine 5i is inundated with questions pertaining to stocks you don't recommend compounded by questions of stocks you do. Perhaps getting ahead of the curve would be beneficial addressing press releases from companies you do recommend (B+ and above) before questions are asked. HR REIT announced an acquisition and Aya announced a partnership to wit I am sure many users of this service are very interested in your thoughts. Just my 2 cents...

Thanks for the great service, I just hope the questions don't outweigh the resources limiting the effficacy of what you are trying to achieve.

Q: Hello,

What are your thoughts on using the PEG ratio as an added metric to analyze growth companies? I'm looking at Kulicke & Soffa Industries (KLIC), the fundamentals that are available to me look decent, low P/E, no debt, high growth. This stock has a PEG of .44, would you take that ratio into consideration when deciding whether to invest or would your decision be based only on the fundamentals.

Thank you.

Any idea what happened to B2Gold (BTO)today? It's the first day of trading in New York and I would have thought that would be good news but instead the stock is down over 8%.
Thanks and keep up the good work.

Q: I can see in my portfolio the rotation happening that you have been addressing, as I have a lot of dividend payers (my pipelines, utilities, telecom, reit's are going down). Can you recommend specifics stocks / etf's to rotate into as I would like to participate. It looks like its just the beginning. Thanks - John.

Q: I think I know your general opinion of IPOs, but do you have anything special to say about the Loblaw offering of Choice Properties REIT, especially in regard to pricing? Seems to be horrible timing for them,too.

Q: Hi,

I am fairly new to the trading game and with the recent talk of rising interest rates, many analysts are saying it will have a negative affect on pipelines and utilities?

I don't understand the correlation between the two. Could you please provide your comments.

I currently own IPL.UN, Gibson and Arc Energy. Small weighting in my portfolio.

Thank you.

Q: Good morning 5i,

I got shares in IPL.un, BEP.un, BCE, and BA which are all stocks that are in the mix of selloff these days because of their divident payout. All together these stock would give me a small gain if sold. Am I better off keeping them or sell them?

Q: I would like your opinion of CanAlaska Uranium (CVV)? They have a large land position and a couple of major joint ventures but a small market cap with not a great deal of cash. Can they carry on until the uranium sector turns around?
Thanks
