Q: CXR is really testing my patience.
I understand that there's a guilt by association issue concerning what's going on with VRX. Wouldn't the market realize this? CXR is down over 60% from its high's. The way I see this means one of two things. They too have accounting issue's....or...the stock is an incredible buying opportunity. Could you please bring some light to the present situation. Thanks
Nicholas

Q: An RRSP portfolio has been designed with some ETFs and high yield/dvd payers/growers based on some of your recommendations I've picked up over time. The yield is required for withholdings so its a delicate balance between high yield for a safe distribution and increasing yield potential. Holdings listed below.

Do any of these concern you as too high risk? Considering switching the weakest 1-2 to ECI which should have more short term growth potential given the accretive acquisition value that is not being reflected at this time. Many of these are under water but some have had some good short term momentum.

Q: B2Gold released Q4 and 2015 YE results. They took some one-time charges/impairments, but also made (I believe) a good deal to advance their Fekola project, which many see as a 'game-changer' for the company. Their 2016 target for AISC is pretty decent around $900. They are also increasing production. What are your thoughts/comments?

Q: Hello Pater & Co,
I'd like to have some exposure to Gold with small positions in Agnico Eagle, Detour and Franco Nevada; but the RSI's indicate they are in an overbought position; the purchases would represent a timid 2.5% of my portfolio. Is it OK to buy now or should I wait for a pull back?
Thanks,
Antoine

Q: Hello Peter,
I consider stocks such as chartwell and jean coutu to be fairly stable over a 3 to 5 year time frame. If these types of stocks go up 15 percent in a short time (less than 6 months), is it better to sell half a position and consider buying it back when it pulls back or it is best just to hang on to it for the long run? Also, to add to my gold and resource position, i was thinking of adding to sprott inc, but for some reason, the stock has not moved. I understand you worked at Sprott but i am using it as an example of a asset management company that specializes in precious metals and resource stocks. thanks very much.

Q: Hi,
Is it time to get back into industrials? or should I wait? If so, can you recommend a couple names in both CDN and U.S. stocks or efts that pay a decent dividend, are large cap, good value and suitable for holding for at least two years.
