Q: Do you think Paladin Labs (PLB) and CI Financial (CIX)? are getting overpriced? Both have forward P/E at over 20 and 18 respectively.

If you think they are worth holding on to, what metrics would you look at and at what values of these metrics would they become a sell? Or is it just experience that tells you when its time to leave the party?

Q: Hello 5I, there is an article on GlobeInvestor Gold about corn prices and a retreat from ethanol: "Prices dropped again this month on reports the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency might reduce the required amount of ethanol in gasoline" and "But domestic ethanol production is flattening, rising just slightly in 2013 amid fears the auto-fuel market cannot absorb any more." Do you think this is a risk for MX, Methanex going forward. Thank you

Q: Hi Team,

I have a macro question for you. The Globe and Mail reported today that Canadian companies are expected to boost capital spending in 2014. What sectors and company specific equities would benefit from this increased spending? Also, corn prices are falling dramatically. Will this affect AG Growth International - AFN? Many thanks, as always.

Paul

Q: Hi, I have Hang Feng left over in my RSP account from the days when I relied on a financial advisor. I clearly should have sold a year ago. I bought at $9.97. I think I should sell and move on. Do you agree?

Q: When do you expect the uranium spot price to move up. With the HEU expiring and mining not able to fully supply the need, not to mention more reactors being built we have to have a move soon. I would like to pick up a basket of small cap explorers working the Athabasca Basin, what do you think of the Sky Harbour Partners. Or any suggestions, instead of going to Vegas thought I'd try this.

Thanks

Q: Hi

I am following your model portfolio in my RRSP and could not be happier. I make regular contributions to my account and I am wondering if there should be any strategy involved in adding to my current positions. My regular contributions are not large enough to be able to maintain the current balance across all stocks but I did not want to sit on cash unnecessarily.

Thanks and please keep up the great work.

Q: Question: How many years of significant growth do you think Home Capital Group (HCG) have ahead of them? I see the growth is there as we move from 2013 into 2014 and even with HCG's recent move its valuation is still attractive with a p/e in the low 9s using 2014 earnings estimate. However, do you still expect ok growth beyond 2014 or do you see HCG turning more into a MIC (Genworth) with an attractive valuation, a steady dividend but also low earnings growth?

Thanks, as always.

Q: Peter and Team,

I saw Christine Hughes who manages the NAI Northwest Asset Allocation Mutual Fund on BNN on Friday and was interested in her and her fund and like her way of looking at things. I am curious on your thoughts of that fund and the manager and am also interested in your thoughts of that fund compared to Jean-Francois Tardiff's JFS.UN. I like JF a lot and we all know he made money in 2008 when others didn't.

Thoughts?
