Q: I followed Danielle Park's blog " Juggling Dynamite " for the last 5 years. On April 17 she posted: " so Q 1 earnings and revenue numbers are ugly with 1/3 of S&P companies missing earnings targets and 51% have so far missed their sales forecasts."
Are you familiar with Danielle? For the past 2 years I have been 50% in cash in my investment account waiting for the big correction that she professes must come to end the cyclical bear market. I regret missing the gains of the past 2 years, but at the same time I am fearful of the pending correction < if I only knew when >. What does one do in this situation? Please comment, thank you.

Q: Hello Team
After spending quite some time looking at all the different fundamentals of these 3 telecom companies maybe you can shed some light on which one you feel I would do best in. Telus,Chunghwa CHT, or Nippon NTT.Being a contrarian at heart I always lean toward the deepest value which I feel would be Nippon telecom,However there ttm ROA is much lower than the other 2 However forward P/E, Price/sales,and P/CF values are much lower.The other metric which I find interesting is the Net income growth AVG over the last 3 years which Telus has performed much better over.
Thanks Gord

Q: Hello 5i Team, any further comments on BRP as an investment? This winter I found myself riding a SkiDoo and this spring in the dealership ordering a 2015 Skidoo only to have the dealer tell me they have been overwhelmed with orders for 2015 product. I realize that they play in a higher risk enviroment but as far as powersports go they have the bases covered. I also find that people are very loyal to their brand of choice when it comes to powersports.
Any thoughts, comments would be appreciated.

Q: I recently read this in a publication "The percentage of people over 65 continues to increase each year. According to a University of Ottawa report, by 2021 - just seven years from now - there will be 6.9 million Canadians age 65 or older. They will represent 17.8% of the total population." Where can we invest our money to capitalize on this demographic trend? Thank-you.

Q: Thank you for your time!

I have a follow up question on Argonaut Gold vs. BTO. I am overweight in gold with a substantial holding in AR. My average cost per share is $4.32. I do not mind holding on as I think the assets of this company are good. It is, however, disconcerting to see a new 52 week low every day! Should I consider moving my holdings in ArgonAut over to BTO, sell and take the loss or hold on? What would be a technical indicator that the stock has bottomed and one could average down....... If one is going to be hung for a sheep.....you might as well make it a Llama!!!

Q: Hi Peter,

I own some Sherritt shares and not sure if I should vote for Mr. Armoyan and his two nominees since the existing board hasn't done too much for the last several years.

Your insight is always greatly appreciated.
