Q: I bought CUS on the run up to the transloading facility. When that didn't work out I held it thinking they would eventually revert just to the original chemical business. It continues to slip a few cents every day. Is it time to sell?

Q: Hey Peter & Team,

To date I have done very well on EFN and yesterday as a prudent measure not ever wanting to be the pig that gets slaughtered took some profit off the table.

Today I noticed the recent financing via Element Financial Corp Sub Receipts (EFN/N) is up almost 9% from $17 - $18.50 on 2.02 million volume while EFN is down 1.22% to $18.57.

Can you help me better understand the relationship between these two issues and what EFN/N increasing from $17 - $18.50 means for us little people.

Thanks for all you do

Q: 5I Team,

I'd like to get your views on the public offering by Infor Acquisition Corp. It seems to me to be a very unique risk/return dynamic given the special purpose acquisition company structure and, given the people behind it, seems quite compelling. It makes me wonder if there is something I might be missing so I'd appreciate hearing your analysis and comments on the shares.

Thanks

Q: Hello, thanks to 5I I feel comfortable with my diversified assets here in Canada, and I'm happy with what I have in the U.S.
Can you recommend some ETF's that can help me cover the rest of the world(maybe 3-4)? I'm ok with risk and can hold for 10+ years if needed. What would your total percent weighting recommendation be for these?
I would like to hold these in a TFSA, but what would the tax implications be? Or would it be better to keep them in an RRSP account because of the implications?
Thanks as always, I greatly appreciate your advice.

Q: Can you comment on the earning for pivot, seems sales have slowed down quite a bit, was thinking of taking a position now that it has come back from the highs. They are still going a head with their .03 divident which would be a almost a 7% yield, would this divident be sustainable?
