Q: Much thanks to the post by 'Peter' re: Shorting America
By Walter Cruttenden.https://www.sec.gov/comments/4-627/4627-95.pdf
Short selling with it's manipulating ways has always been a sore topic with me .
I would advise every investor to confirm with their investing broker that they 'do not' want any shorting of equities held in your name without your permission.
Thank you D McV

Q: Hi guys,

I have a decent gain on BEP.UN of approximately 15%. It is touching 52 week highs and I'm trying to raise a bit of cash given that the market has done very well since the correction. With interest rates rising in 2015 (possibly) and the realization that interest rate sensitive stocks would get hurt before rates actually rise, do you think its a good idea to sell BEP.UN and move up the ranks to Brookfield Asset Management on a pullback?

Thanks for your advice,
Jason

Q: Peter I am in your line up for a portfolio review. On my allocation diversification I look at my assets in total which means in some accounts I am skewed heavy to one sector but on a whole I am reasonably well diversified.How do you view this?

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
I own CN.
I sold TFI in July (35% profit in 1 year) when it spiked after announcing its intention to acquire CSS. I also sold WTE in July (100% profit + dividends in 4 years) because of the poor outlook for coal.
I'm thinking of re-entering the trucking business: back with TFI? (perhaps I should not have sold it) or TMA? or MTL?
Seeking your guidance.
Tony

Thanks!
