Q: Could you please give me your opinion on painted pony? I am down over 40% on this one and I hold it in a non registered account. I would want you to keep in mind your risk/reward view; as of today. Would you prefer taking a tax loss and switching either to one of your preferred names in the sector or to something in your growth / balanced portfolio? As always, your opinion is highly valued.
Regards.

Q: There seems to be a lot of interest in this company from subscribers and I suspect this company has a lot of coverage by institutions and professional investors. My question is, if that is the case, is this a company that retail investors should invest in? What edge can they have? It seems to me that one would only want to invest in small or micro cap companies if one stood a good chance of making outsized gains. That typically means buying these companies before they get noticed.

Thank you for all your advice and support. Open Text earnings appears to have missed estimates. Have you had a chance to examine the earnings and, if so,do you still think this is a good investment?
I am up 17% on BAM.PR.M (Brookfield Preferred) over the years and have been very happy to collect the dividend but the preferred looks like it may reach the end of its life at the end of December 2015. Just wondering if I should sell now with the gain or wait until December 2015. It trades now for 22.68 and it looks like that Brookfield would have to pay me $25 to redeem. An I missing anything e.g. could they roll it into a new preferred at a lower interest rate?
Q: How does TORC look with its recent purchase, compared to Spartan and COS. I own all three, and looking for the best of the three. From the market reaction, one might assume SGY did better in the TOG/SGY deal
