Q: Hello Peter,
Stella Jones has pulled back a bit. I was thinking of selling Free hold to add to stella jones. Does this make sense or is it better to keep free hold royalties as it does have a good balance sheet and pays a good dividend. Thanks very much.

Q: Can you please comment on Fiera's latest quarter and prospects going forward? It seems to have some momentum. Would you swap this out for BNS or any other financial?

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
Fiera Capital reported this morning and the numbers looked fairly good, at least to me. I have the company in my wife's RRSP account, primarily for its 4% plus dividend yield and future dividend growth. They seem to be growing their AUM quite nicely in difficult markets. Finally the valuation seems inexpensive compared to other Canadian asset managers. I would like your take on the above. Thank you as always for your sage insights. (PS- I just purchased the book "Market Masters" and I thoroughly enjoyed the section devoted to 5i Founder and CEO Peter Hodson. Great interview and wonderful book. I highly recommend it to other 5i subscribers)

Q: Surge just reported their quarter. From my novice observations they paid down another 43 million in debt to bring the debt down again to 100 million.Is there anything else 5i sees with your expert eyes that should be of concern. This is my oil and gas stock along with WCP.
Thx Blake

Q: This will interest other members holding $GSY. It's not short sellers. I'm told that some employees sold about 2M dollars of shares now that the "buying/selling window" is opened, but a fund picked them up within 30 minutes at $18. Also 4 insiders have bought the stock recently at 19.50 in the public market.

Q: Hi, I sent in a question a few months ago asking for a few gold stock names for my portfolio. I haven't bought them yet And have decided id rather buy a gold etf as its easier to manage. Should I buy a bulllion etf or a gold stock etf? This would be for a long term hold. And which etf specifically would you recommend? Or even half of each.

Q: Hi. I have held HR.un for a number of years and it has been essentially flat although I've earned a decent dividend. Am thinking of switching for Sru.un giving up a bit of yield for some capital appreciation. Any thoughts?
Thanks
