Q: HRC, MND,
I see Brad Mills (CEO of Mandalay) just financed Helio Resources to become its largest shareholder at 27.5%. Is this the beginnings of another Mandalay type story where he takes a microcap and builds it into a dividend paying producer?

Q: For life insurers such as SLF, I have heard many times that higher interest rates will help them because of higher earnings in their bond portfolios. But, higher interest rates should also result in capital losses on bond portfolios. Can you explain this apparent conflict?

Thanks,

Q: Hi team, I sold out of my ZUT and ZWU earlier this month when I got nervous about market levels, my mistake. I wonder what you think of the utilities sector at these levels. I know rising interest rates are always a concern, but I have a low level of exposure to utilities so I was thinking of establishing a small position once again (1000 or so shares). Thoughts? Thanks for your time.

Q: FSZ - Hi guys, first question - Fiera is down, probably because they have said that there were errors in their annual reporting for all funds for 2013 - then do not adequately explain the impact of the errors - amateur mistake and poor communication. May be a buying opportunity but could you investigate and reassure me please? Here is the post: announces that it has filed revised version of each of the Funds' annual management report of fund performance (together, the "MRFPs") for the year ended December 31, 2013. The MRFPs have been revised to correct errors contained in the graphs presented under the heading entitled Year-by-Year Returns.

Copies of the MRFPs as well as copies of the cover letters detailing the revised information are available through SEDAR at www.sedar.com or through Fiera's website at www.fieracapital.com

Q: HHF. Looking for alternate asset classes to better diversify a portfolio. What is your opinion on using HHF for exposure to hedge funds? I've read articles where it discusses that this type of ETF doesn't closely correlate to the actual hedge fund index.

Q: AT&T (T.US)

Hi Team, I know you don't specialize in US stocks, but I was hoping you could give me an opinion on AT&T. It appears to have a very low P/E of 10.7 TTM and pays a dividend of 5.06%. The payout ratio is 39.7%. The main negative I can see a potential forecast for lower earnings per share. Do you think this stock is worth owning for income long term?

Thanks. Michael
