Q: I hold a 2.4% position in TOU and a 1.2% position in TPZ in a non registered account. TOU has had greater upside (65% for me) and probably still has legs over the very long term. Capital gain on TPZ is 17.25% and the dividends are solid. TPZ seems to be more an income play than a growth play. I was thinking about selling TPZ and adding to TOU for greater potential growth (5 to 10 year horizon). Currently I hold about 10% energy in Exploration and Production companies combined, but would be swapping securities rather than adding new money. Capital gains from selling TPZ would be manageable with enough capital loss offsets. Is this a good idea or should I continue to hold TPZ?

I have divided my energy holdings into E & P companies (10%) and pipelines (15% -- largely for income -- and in many respects the pipelines are closer to utilities than to oil production companies)

Q: I have held TOY for many years and it has shown glimpses of promise but has never really fulfilled its potential. My return has been relatively flat over that time period. Part of my interest in TOY was the potiential for it to be taken out, but the more I read about the company the less convinced I am that the founders have any interest in exiting. Although it has held up better than the market during the past year, I am wondering if it would be a good time to take advantage of its relative strenght and purchase one of the many good companies that have been "unfairly" punished and which might have greater upside than TOY over the next 3-5 years. One such stock I have been watching is CTS.
- would you agree that a trade of TOY to CTS is likely to yield a better return over 3-5 years?
- would there be a better trade you would recommend?
- how likely is it that a large catalyst (ie a blockbuster toy or a takeover) is going to occur to propel TOY higher?
- on a scale of 1-10, 10 being most risky, how would you rate the risk level of TOY vs CTS?

Many Thanks
Scott

Q: Could you provide an update on Liberty Gold, in particular its cash on hand, insider holdings and recent activity, recent exploration results if any, and its potential as a junior exploration company. Its price has steadily declined over the past year and am wondering if it's time to sell, buy more, or just hold. Thanks.

Q: Between CJ and WCP which one is more likely to attain a higher combined return for a three year hold?

At the moment CJ (7.7%) has a much higher yield than WCP (5.00%). Are these rather high yields sustainable over a three year run?

Q: Hello I am considering buying SLF at these levels $57 to $59 with a dividend yield of 4.75%.
I want to hold these shares for a minimum of 3 years, but more likely into the 5 year range.
I know this is a difficult question to ask, but based on your experience, how much downside % do you think this stock has?
I would like to buy in allotments over the next 3 months.
Suggestions, thank you.

Q: Deal terms are not yet available for the WFG buyout, I own 150 shares, bought at 113/share a few weeks back.

What are your initial thoughts? Hold and tender to the bid (whatever it is, presumably higher than $125 CAD/share)? Hold out for a white knight (seems unlikely)? Sell now and capture the gain in case the deal falls apart?

Something else?

Thanks for your time
