Q: I would be interested in your views on this company. The ceo is Rob Bakshi, the founder of Silent Witness. I was a SW shareholder in the early days and did well with that one. How much weight do you give to the ceo who has a track record of success?

Q: Good Afternoon

Could you please comment on Fiera a Capital. I know that you have been positive on the name before but I have held it for close to 2 years and it has not really moved at all. Would you continue to hold or could you suggest something with a little more growth potential
Thank you

Q: I have a full position in AVO, BCI, CXI, DHX, EFN, LMP, PHM, PLI and XTC. Overweight in IWO and half positions in CDV and GXI.
I am wondering which growth stock I should add next, or maybe just increase my CDV and GXI holdings.
This would be on margin borrowing and I am okay with leveraged investment at this point in time. While I understand these are meant for 3-5 year holdings, perhaps your suggestion could factor in a 1-3 year period as an additional variable.
I would appreciate your suggestion as well as your opinion on leveraged investing for the growth portfolio.
Thanks

Q: Hi,

I have added nearly all the equities in the Growth Portfolio (excluding financials and IWO) to my holdings with percentages ranging from 1% (SCR, QHR) to about 4% (DRT, XTC). I also have CHR, ET, CLR, ESP, KLS, SIS, RZZ, THO, MTSN, SYZ, CPH, RX and WEF among other holdings in my entire portfolio which 5i has had a favorable view in the recent months. My question is whether this portfolio will be too risky in a market correction as I believe more in Small Cap growth than large caps. Plus one or two takeovers will boost this portfolio a lot. What do you think would the right strategy here. Thanks

Q: For info via seeking alpha:
Uranium names are showing notable strength today following yesterday's ruling in Japan that will allow the Sendai nuclear plant to reopen, which would be the first plant to be reopened since the Fukushima disaster: CCJ +6.8%, DNN +5.6%, LEU +10.3%, URRE +4.5%, UEC +5%, URZ +2.6%, URG +1%, UUUU +1.7%.
The news is positive for the nuclear industry to the extent that authorities in Japan have not given up on the energy source despite Fukushima.
A MarketWatch article paints a bright picture of the nuclear industry, with uranium prices rising ~35% since last summer and improving public opinion; "China and India believe that the upside from the clean energy from nuclear far outweighs the downside risks of sticking to dirty coal,” says GoldStockTrades.com editorJeb Handwerger.
Last week, CCJ signed a deal with India to provide 7.1M lbs. of uranium concentrate over the next five years.
