Q: Can you rank these co's based on growth potential over a 6-18 month term?

Thanks for all the great insight and information. This service has been a great "investment."

Q: Peter:

This week Ralph Garcea at Echelon Partners initiated coverage on Intrinsyc with a Spec. buy rating with a C$3.35 12m target. This is ITC's first analyst. As a former small cap fund manager did you pay attention to new reports from small cap's who are not raising capital? Do you think this report will begin to draw some institutional attention to ITC?

Q: Hi, I know TMG is a micro cap and highly risky. However the fundamentals seem to be moving in the right direction, and the products seem relevant in a growing space (energy efficiency). I'm interested if you're familiar with any of the management team or board members history? Specifically if any of the team have a recognizable track record or success or failure.

Q: Could you please comment on the recent deal between Glencore and Trevali that sees Glencore selling the majority of its stake in 2 of its zinc mines to TV and in exchange receiving exclusive rights to sell all of TV's zinc and increasing its stake in TV from 4% to 25%.
-Do you view this as a positive for TV shareholders?
-If so, why did TV shares drop on the news?
-Would you still consider TV a compelling commodity play?
-Why would Glencore sell 2 of its own zinc mines if it had a strong conviction to the potential of zinc?

I have learned a great deal from you in the 3 months I have been a member - THANK YOU!

Q: Since August 2016 has your interest in this little company been peaked more? Would this be a good growth prospect it seems to be chugging along well. Or could it possibly get bought by a bigger company one day?

Thanks

Q: I have owned CRH from around $3.00. After it doubled i sold half my position. It has now almost doubled again. I am not overweight the name but would it be wise to reduce it to a half position now as it seems to have run up so quickly? Basically should i be locking in some gains or do you have confidence it will perform in the medium term?

Q: This is a comment on Jerry's question this morning. DFN holds a portfolio of 15 high quality large cap companies. Its net asset value now is about $ 19. The preferred shares can be surrendered at maturity on December 2019. If he is comfortable with holding these preferred shares until maturity and getting a 5% yield I think the dividends and the redemption price of $ 10 are reasonably safe. It will take a total market collapse to reduce the net asset value to below $ 10. There are many split preferred with different maturities, yields and risks. Considering their price stability and yield, with the right choice, I think these split preferred are better than holding GIC's or money market funds.

Q: Hello,

I am gradually adding companies to my portfolio when the funds become available. My question is, should I also be selling portions of my stocks that are doing well to fund my next purchase? Or should I only do this if one stock has taken off and created a significant overweighting? I guess what I'm trying to decide is if it is more important to quickly diversify or to let time do its thing and patiently add companies when able.

Thanks,
Al

Q: I have enjoyed quite a runup in my holding of CRH and am thinking of taking some of my profits (slightly overweight now) and adding to my position in BAD where I am slightly below my average price. Why has BAD dropped so significantly recently and would you consider this a good entry point or sit tight with CRH.
