Q: Hi guys, great service. Would it be possible to expand your search to include all tickers being asked about. Many people ask about 2 or more companies in the same question, but the search only looks at the one chosen in the header. Thanks, Ian

Q: DI.UN is tanking these days. Is it just interest rates & sector rotation or is there a more fundamental problem with the company? Thanks. Michael

Q: I am building a self managed RRSP and TFSA portfolio which is the model portfolio and a touch of the B+ and better rated stocks. Thank you for the great results. With a 15 year horizon I am slowly adding laddered bonds, in addition I have XLY, IBB, IWO, YUM and TAL for US holdings.

I am transferring, in kind, my BMO managed Blueprint stocks to a self trading account, some are already in the model portfolio. Should I keep any of the stocks that are not in the model portfolio or should I dump them all and buy the model portfolio?

I'm not attached to any of them, not concerned with the trading fees.

Q: What are your thoughts on WRG. I hold this in my grandson's RESP. The stock seems to be highly rated, but is down 12% from what I paid for it.

Q: Your opinion on AFN (Ag Growth International) and VALE (Vale SA). I do not have any exposure in either agriculture or mining. The exposure would become 10% of my portfolio (5% of each).

Q: Hello all,
What are your thoughts on PHK, Pimco High Income Fund? It has a descent yield and seems to be hanging in at it's mid price range. Thanks.

Q: ptq
How long do cease trade order normally last once a company files the paper work they were missing (ie is the bureaucracy at BCSC pretty quick?)
Looks like PTQ had a cease trade order implemented on Friday (after close?) due to late filing of their quarter documents.

Current thoughts on the company?

Q: Could you please provide an update on TME Thanx

Q: Hi 5i,
Any idea what will happen to the Tuckamore Capital deb, TX.DB.C? I have a very small amount in the deb., and will sell for a capital loss, unless you see something magical happening between now and Mar. 2014.
Many thanks. Bob

Q: New Flyer Industries (NFI) continues to drop yet its backlog remains strong. Any insights I am not privy to or is this a normal correction?

Q: Hi Peter and team, I'm thinking of sell GDL Goodfellows could you please recommend a better stock in this sector. Thank you

Q: CDV - I have Con Dev and perhaps thinking of selling it. Do you see it as a Buy,Sell or Hold? Thanks.

Q: Peter,perhaps you are not getting my questions so I will try again I have been a member since day one and I trust your opinion a lot. I need your help more now than ever. I have four preferred shares that will likely be called in the next two months. Trying to come close to the yield they were giving me.I have a lot of the Pembinas, Keyeras, and real good ones as far as equities. In order to get more yield your valued opinion please on GH, RSI, COS,MED, DR, DBD,LW,and BDT Please. I know this is a lot of companies to ask for but I must be very diversified in these funds that I will be using. Thank you so much, Ken

Q: Currently holding MDA, STN and GIB.A and have been considering bringing GIB.A and STN up to 5% by selling MDA. Also one I don't hold at this time is TIH and have considered adding it. I would appreciate your input before making this move.
Thank you for your wonderful service.

Q: I presently own Pembina Pipeline for the last several years for dividend & growth. I see Trans Canada has been in the news a lot lately and was wondering if this is a good entry point going forward for the same reason I have owned Pembina? Thank you for your valued opinion.
