Q: Rifco appears to be in same business as CFN, but in the segment that competes directly with the banks. It appears to be much smaller, less liquid and far more expensive. Obviously since its smaller it can grow much more quickly but competing head to head with TD and Scotia doesn't seem very lucrative. Am I missing something?

Q: Can you please comment on the rmm.un halt and news today. It generally seems positive but not sure how material it is - is it just an extension or something more significant? Is Remcomm looking good as an investment here?

Q: A suggestion: Sometimes, especially after an event, two or more subscribers want your take on a company. You could put the letters together (one after the other), and write your answer underneath, instead of having to comment on each letter separately.

Q: Hi Team,
Are your current views on Home Capital still positive. Has the short, and media hype surrounding the short done playing out?
I bought some at $58 and was thinking of adding to it now at $53.
Do you think we've seen the end of the slide?
I'm in it for the long term, but there's nothing more depressing than a 10% drop just after you get in.

Q: Good morning. When assessing a company's stock, how important are metrics such as price to earnings and price to cash flow?

What is the most important metric for a retail investor to be aware of, or is there such a thing? Does it depend on the type of business or sector the company is involved in?

Finally, for P/E, is it more important to pay attention to 'current' P/E or 'forward' P/E? How reliable are the quoted ratios, since the value seems to vary a bit from from site to site for some companies? Also, some sites will often not quote a current and/or forward P/E. Any reason for this?

Thanks as always for your valuable information and advice.

Q: Hi Peter and team,

I have held CNQ for quite some time, but the stock, with the overall sector, hasn't been doing much. I am down about 20% on the stock. With some patience, I know the stock will rebound once the sector does, but I was thinking about potentially switching into Whitecap Resources or Raging River as they seem to have held up fairly well in the sector and have good growth prospects. In terms of upside potential, would you think staying with CNQ would be better than entering into one of these other names?

Appreciate your thoughts.
