Q: Good morning Peter:
I have been wrestling with what to do with a cash account I have at BMO Investorline which I set up for emergency uses. It holds about $13k and is currently all cash. In the past I have invested in utilities or reits just to get income. So far, no emergencies have occurred, so the cash sits there doing nothing. What would you do? Thank you and kind regards.

Q: Peter;This is a question , for those quiet days, if you and staff have any. ON BNN there two very loud, in your face advertisers whom we all know and use the mute when they are on- at least I do. One is Joel Matlin with his Alarmforce. I actually admire his marketing but still mute.The other one is Vectorvest. I question this firms off the wall claims- especially the one using a tenn aged boy. Has anyone ever tried to quantify their claims.? All you have to do is plug it and money rolls in . No muss, no fuss. I wish I had the skills to test their claims. Like I said maybe on a slow,day? Thanks. Rod

Q: Re: ZWB-T

Hi Peter and Crew,

Thanks you for the great answer on the BMO ZEB-T (equal weight Canadian Banks) vs. purchasing 20% each of the big 5.

As a followup question, can you highlight some advantages or potential risks of the BMO Covered Call Canadian Banks fund (ZWB-T). From my analysis, the CC strategy does produce a higher yield. Tempting, but the one year total performance appear to be very similar. What "gotcha's may be out there ?

Thanks for a great service !

Q: Hi Peter, How should I view today's bought deal announcement from LSI? On one hand it's a huge raise given the market cap, but on the other it would allow them to purchase roughly 25 units for cash - and accelerate there growth beyond the current 50%+ rate. I don't know if I should be upset or excited.
Thanks in advance.

Q: Peter & Co.,

Looking for an updated opinion of Tim Horton's. A lot of noise these days about failed US expansions, debate over activist investor's looking for short term pops vs. long term value, Kevin OLeary claiming he wants them to 'cut the operational fat' etc etc. It trades at a premium it seems, personally, I have a hard time seeing where the growth is going to come from given the Canadian market saturation (albeit, with some of the most loyal customers around, myself included). I own this in both mine and my mother's portfolio, but have been considering a rotation into High Liner foods for a couple of months now. Whats your take on THI? Would you support a rotation into High Liner, or just continue the ride with Timmy's? Thanks guys / gals!

Q: I am a new member and a long time fan of Peter Hodson and Canadian MoneySaver.
Question: Since bond returns are so poor and now there is a risk of losing capital too, what is an investor to do? I don't feel comfortable being 100% in equity even if it is well diversified and dividend producing. Any ideas?

Q: Hi Peter and Team, regarding Connacher, CLL, wow! Up almost 200% in past three trading days with huge volumes, may I have your thoughts on their recent results and updates. Any other information you can provide would be helpful. With oil at $108 now, differential narrowing nicely and their production looking not bad, where do you see CLL in the next 12 months? Thanks!
