Q: I have owned Badger Daylighting(BAD) for many years. I now own almost 3,000 shares. My gain on this company is over 66,000.00. This represents 4.68% of my holdings, 4.34% is in a Rif. and .28% is in a TFSA. Question: Do I take some of this profit and invest in other stocks or just hold. If I sell what do you recommend. IO am mostly a divided stock holder. Thanks for a great service.

Q: Hello Team 5i,
I have a colleague who is just starting to put some money back into an RRSP account that he had emptied out to buy his house. For now, he has 1000 dollars in it and I promised him I would ask your advice for how he should invest it. He does not expect to touch this money and whatever else he puts in there in the future for at least 25 to 30 years. He would like to take a growth strategy. What do you suggest for him? Thank you in advance for your help.

Q: What are your thoughts regarding Equity Financial's (EQI's) news release today? The news that mortgage portfolio growth will be "nominal"/flat in 2014 is quite negative, is it not? Is it your view that the negative impact of this news will be offset by Smoothwater buying up the shares?

Q: Hi Peter and team,
Re Surge SGY:
In my experience a dividend above 7 to 7.5% can be a bit of a warning flag.
I am puzzled as to why a smallish growth company, SGY, has the dividend as high as it is (8.6% I believe).
Can you clarify this, and give your assessment of the risk level of this company. I am considering taking a position representing 6% of my portfolio in it, in the context of a well balanced portfolio.
Thanks,
Mike
