Q: Hi Peter,
What happened to all the O/G questions ? :)
Of the 3 listed where would you add at this time ? TOU has held up well. Dividend for WCP certainly looks healthier than SGY. Thank you.

Q: I see bnk just came out with reserve numbers etc. I have to admit a little above my head. I note from a Dec letter that you know mgm and think highly of them. Td also has a buy on them. I own about a 10% position in oil/gas. MEG, SGY & TOG. I figure with a 4% drop today that the mkt didn't like what they had to say..What do you think of bnk at this time, should I buy, or might you suggest something else. Thanks very much.

Q: I am thinking of building a small portfolio using only the (A) rated stocks from your monthly summary list. Wondering if that would provide enough diversification to get a decent return over the long term?

Q: A non binding offer of $.80 has been made by Midwestern, an affiliate of Mart, for the oil & gas company Mart.Is this a good deal for shareholders or can other offers be expected? It appears there is very little confidence in this price since the stock rose to $.72 today then fell back to the low sixties.Your comments ,as slways, would be appreciated.

Q: i am 77 years old and have a lower 7 digit portfolio.

my occasional advisor wants me to change most of my investments ,particularly the RIFF to CI Guaranteed Retirement Cash Flow Series G5/20 or alike.I think that is too conservative and the commission is in the 3 % plus.
Your opinion please. Walter

Q: Hi There

Fairfax has just announced the reset rate on the above at 2.91%.
My reading of the prospectus was that the reset rate was to be equal to 2.66% plus 5yr GOC rate(~0.79%) = 3.45%.
what am I missing here.
Thanks
David

Q: Hi Peter,

Again, just a recent subscriber. I noticed last week your response to another subscriber about some small cap US stocks that you might like.

Of the suggestions, I did some of my own research on TCON and MNST and bought positions in both. Tcon is up almost 50% and MNST is up approx 20%. As you suggested they are spec positions so I took relatively small positions in both. Nonetheless those trades alone will pay for your service for the next 10 years

First, thanks for the great ideas.
Second, why don't you guys start a small cap US growth research service? The variety of stocks for you to recommend is extremely broad.
Thirdly and lastly can you suggest any other small cap growth in the US that I can research?

Much appreciative

Q: I am thinking that it is time to own a transportation company to take advantage of low gas prices and improving economies. I know that you like both of these companies, so I am wondering if there is something to suggest buying one over the other? Both seemed tied to North American economic growth although perhpas Cargojet may have some international business so I am thinking that this is an apples to apples comparison despite the different modes of transportation provided. I have a preference for company that could be a long term hold with a growing dividend.

Appreciate your thoughts as always.

I am 53 year old with a non registered acct holding blue chips and your model portfolio.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
