Q: Hi 5i:

I currently hold KEYS and KXS at substantial gains, thanks to 5i, at about 7% of my portfolio. I would like to raise my technology allocation. I have held, gained and sold RPD and FDC previously. Would you go back to them at this point or consider a position in BOX. My $US exposure is about 13% of portfolio. Another option would be to iniatate positions in OTEX and/or DSG. My portfolio is well balanced. Any new positions would be in my TFSA. Please deduct as appropriate.
Thank you for your opinion. Regards

Sinc

Q: Hi 5i - Exco just reported their quarter and have some noise because of discontinued operations in Bulgaria with ALC. (impairment charge) - I think its a wise move given the loss in those operations. Adjusted earnings look decent and the board raised the dividend 6% - whats your team's take on the quarter and going forward business plus valuation ?

Respect, Patrick

Q: Abt
Excellent results by Absolute, new management is doing a great job.....and then the news of a big contract with a very large US schooldistrict.
Everything is lining up for a takeover here.....I am convinced that this will happen sooner than later.
Stadium Capital has a 15% stake and the new CEO sold a company to BlackBerry before.
Is there a chance that ABT comes back in your portfolio?

Q: What is your opinion on these two Enbridge capital structures? ENS, although riskier, offers currently a higher dividend than the issue price. I could not find the current value of the preferred shares.
Thank you for your input!
