Q: Hi,

CXR continues to make new lows. It also trades on the U.S market, where U.S. investors just see a stock continually going down, and it is heavily shorted by U.S. investors. Years back, Jennifer Dowdie, then an editor for the Investors Digest, now with the
Globe & Mail, really liked Sino Forest. Hence, a lot of people owned this stock. Carson Block started shorting this stock and driving the price down... just like with valiant pharmaceuticals. Canadian analysts came on business stations and started criticizing him. In the end, just like valiant pharmaceuticals, he drove the stock way down in the case of Sino Forest right to 0. Is there going to be a time when you will tell us to cut our losses with CXR? Could you guys please do a feature on this stock and publish it? A lot of your customers have holdings in this stock.

Thank you,
Dennis

Q: Good day 5i Team, I have a diversified registered stock portfolio loosely mirroring 5i's balanced leaning toward growth stocks (with Europe & US dividend etf exposure). I am long term with this but am looking for hedge against any broad market declines. Can you briefly explain and recommend inverse etf's as a suitable hedge against this.
Thank you for your valued advice

Q: Hi there,

Thanks for the great service! I purchased KXS when it was added to the Balanced Equity portfolio at 5% weighting. It has performed well and is now about a 7% weighting in my portfolio. Their results are coming out shortly which I presume may have the ability to move the stock much higher or much lower. In your opinion, should I trim my 7% weight to 5% BEFORE or AFTER the results?

Thanks!

Q: Market seems to like the latest quarter. I have some cash to put to work.
I like what this management team has done historically. Sold when 5i did last year.Any comments.

Thx

Q: We are elderly and fully invested in 23 dividend paying stocks now, and have full positions in TRP, IPL and PPL. I am considering selling IPL and PPL down to a 1/2 position, adding to my VET and AAR.UN to bring each of them to 2/3 pos'n and taking a 2/3 pos'n in EIF. I should add that our present portfolio is 28% in the green with nothing in the red and I manage it daily. Do my changes sound reasonable to you given the present environment? Thanks, Ted

Q: PHILLIPS 66 (PSX:NYSE)... I am looking for a combination of refiners for a pullback. The movement in the oil/gasoline is indicating that prices will retract again from current levels. I would like your thoughts on Phillips 66 and one other to hold for the next 12-18 moths. Consensus is looking at mid 2017 before the market really starts to get a hold of the supply side. Do you see this company able to grow revenues and possibly increase profitability?

Thank you
Jason N.
