Q: I recently placed an order for a TSX listed stock that announced very good earnings. The stock was increasing in the afternoon after the earnings report and I placed a market price order after the market was closed. I did not list a specific price because the stock price was a moving target. The next day, the stock opened at a much higher price (which was my purchase price) and continued to decline significantly during the day. Not wanting to repeat this scenario again, I would appreciate your comments.

Q: Hi team: I am looking forward to BNN tonight since Peter is on. I have 8,000 to invest in my TFSA and wonder if I should buy maybe 300 shares of BXE. Do you have another suggestion instead, such as another stock with a dividend. I think you have just recommended BXE pretty strongly and it has been coming along nicely. Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and team, My son wants to start TFSA/RSP account. His goal is to buy 4 or 5 companies with a view to long team. He is 24 years old. He wants very stable companies with lots of cash ( but that is more my thought, as I do my own investing now, but would like an outside view) I have a few in mind, but I would very much appreciate if you could give your thoughts on five solid companies. Thank you very much

Q: I know you've posted responses re: MCB a while back, but was just wondering what you thought of the company at current levels as a buy? Too late, or would you suggest buying at current levels

Q: I recently sold Eagle Energy (EGL.UN) with its recent strength, at a small loss. I am looking at replacing it with Argent (AET.UN), another cross-border energy trust with a similar yield. This would represent about 1.5% of my total portfolio. How would you rate Argent relative to the other cross-border trusts, and do you have any opinion on the cross-border concept in general?

Also, I keep thinking that the REIT sell off should be at its end, with some good quality names yielding over 7%. The market continues to say otherwise. Any comment?

Thank-you

Q: Hello Peter and the 5I team
I have a 10% weighting of oil and gas stocks in my portfolio. I am considering making BXE a 1/3 weighting of my oil and gas stocks, making it a 3.33% weighting of my entire portfolio. What do you think of this? What do you think of BXE?

Thanks

Q: Peter please comment on the alleged, or true, China Real Estate bubble. I was watching 60 minutes and HBO Vice and they both showed and reported so called "Ghost Cities" being built in China BUT are empty. According to these programs the Chinese people are NOT allowed to trade stocks, as we do, so pile all their money into speculative Real Estate and that is driving their economy. What are your comments on it bursting? when? and the effect on the world and Canada?
Thanks.
