Q: Could I have an update on Torex TXG I see you liked them last March. They seem to be expanding the resource and moving forward very nicely, while the stock price has dropped to close to book value. I realize the sector risk but i'm always early to buy, this has to be a winner in a couple years as long as it doesn't go to zero. Am I missing something?
Thanks

Q: I believe you mentioned Norrep Funds a few months ago, but
I can't find it in the archive. Would you please restate your
opinion of this family of funds? They seem to be very small,
and am concerned they can achieve the economies of scale to survive over the long term.

Q: Hi Peter,
I own a significant position in Potash which has had a nice rally lately. First any reason that you are aware of for this rally? Secondly I'm considering trimming back some POT and adding to my position in Avigilon (AVO). I think I know the answer but comparing the growth rates of both these companies I would conclude that AVO share price should greatly outperform POT over the next 3 years?? Thank-you.

Q: Peter and Team,

I have been continuing to work towards diversification and emulating the 5i philosophy. I am thinking I could use another techology-type/growth type name. I currently have approximately a 4.0% position in Amaya Gaming AYA and have been thinking about adding to it.

However, I've also been looking at Constellation Software and read the report (am I correct that the last report was Oct. 2012?) and like it but am curious if I want to put new money to work in this name with the incredible performance its had. I was thinking of a 5.0% weighting. If not in this name, would I be better off in something like DHX Media?

Your thoughts are appreciated.

Q: DHX is down this morning on news of a couple of resignations from the Board.... in particular two of the individuals involved in the recent equity sale. I purchased this stock for my wife's TFSA partly on your recommendation. Any reason to worry?

Q: Peter:

Caldwell Partners TSX:CWL reported fiscal 2014 Q1 results this evening with revenue growth of 39% and EPS of $0.023. They indicate strong growth in their USA operations. Is it buy at current trading levels for microcap investors? It also yields a 7% dividend.

Q: Hello 5i Team,
I keep hearing recommendations on the sell of Vodaphone (BNN, TD) due to valuation. I am willing to sell out of my position for JNJ and PG as my portfolio structure could use these additions, are there some better choices?
Thanks,

Q: Hi Peter and 5iResearch Team,
Is there any tax issue or other negative factor which should be considered with holding US dividend paying stocks in a TFSA. Thank you. Linda

Q: From research on Sedar.com it seems former CEO Michaluk and CFO MacKenzie of Poseidon are laying low in the business world due to a Class Action lawsuit commenced by investors in NY in Feb 2013, and if I were ever a shareholder I would join it for the cost of a postage stamp. Often you'll get a small cheque out of the blue and long after.

My final question on PSN: Beyond the obvious such as don't get overweight on small caps and sometimes you will have things blow up in your portfolio, what, if anything, can a small investor learn from this debacle? Thanks, J.
