Q: I have been a holder of AQN for a fair while and have been very satisfied and even have added to the position on dips. I notice that the "short" position of this stock was increased by 51% as at Jan31/17. I don't usually become concerned by changes in short positons however this increase is considerable. Should I view this as a concern by the so-called better informed?

Q: Could you please comment on today's earnings releases of BAM.A and BIP.A?

Thank you, Peter

Q: I am looking to buy NVU and would appreciate your thoughts about their strengths and weaknesses. Also, do you consider it a buy or hold at current price level.
If you do not like NVU, can you please recommend another one in a similar space.

Q: I took this morning's post-earnings weakness as a chance to purchase Telus, which has been on my "to buy" list for a while. There was a one-time contract issue affecting their profit this past quarter, but they seem on pace with respect to wireless subscriptions, low attrition rates, and dividend increase schedule. I purchased it in my RRSP for a 30+ year hold. Good move?

Q: Following up on earlier question today by Stephane about MFC. I agree with your assessment that results were good. Any explanation why stock is underperforming today? Is there 'new' news that I missed?

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,

DH has been slowly creeping up the last few weeks. Have you heard any new developments on the potential takeover or has the gains come from Trump's plan of deregulation of financial sector?

Thanks for the great service!

Q: as a follow up question on Redknee rkn/t,after another poor Q,I took your advice and dumped. I have 300 shares Avigilon at $20.80 and question is should I use my Rkn/t proceeds to double down on Avo at $15sh level,or would you suggest another 5i tech like pho/v or Intrynsic itc/t. Thanks as always, jb (you keep me sane haha)

Shopify seems to be on an upward trend, while Amaya has not done much.

Do you think the first quarter will be as good as Q4.
Thanks

Q: Hi I have 3 questions:
1. What is your long term of Caterpillar?
2. For an RRSP portfolio what ETF's would you recommend for low risk?
3. I'm thinking the market is overbought should I take my gains and go to cash in a registered portfolio?
Thanks

Q: Hi, Greenspace Brands seems to be receiving favourable coverage recently with several BNN guests liking it. The trend and tilt towards organic food is certainly growing specially the millenials and others with better affordability. What are the growth metrics for this company, acquisitions and organic? You had mentioned that stock is already expensive and there does n't seem to be much coverage among analysts, except one I noticed from Raymond James. company did a financing at $1.20 in December, 2016. Stock already trading at $1.67 and most gains made in last 2 weeks. Is it worth taking a small position, before it catches world's attention ? Premium Brands, also in food business, although not an identical co. but was n't discovered by retail investors when it was trading at a fraction of today's price just 3 years ago. Will appreciate your thoughts. Thanks

Q: Hi,
I'm trying to shuffle a few things around between my margin, RSP, and TFSA accounts and simplify my portfolio. I'm assuming one would want to hold the highest growth stocks in the TFSA because there is no tax.
However, how do you distinguish what should go into which account? For example, among others, I'm holding a bunch of dividend stocks (BPY.UN, BPY, ZWU, VGH, VRE, PPL, AD) and growth stocks (ONEX, XSU, TNC, CXI, SJ) in my RSP. In my TFSA, I also have a mix of dividend and growth stocks, BIP.UN, ZWB, TECK.B, CGX, SHOP, GUD, CRH, HWO. Should I swap some of these stocks between my RSP and TFSA?

My TFSA and RSP are all maxed out and I have been buying a lot of dividend stocks in my margin account lately (CU, XEI, VDY, ENB, WSP, FTS, AQN, PWF, ENF) to take advantage of the dividend tax credit. Is it better to hold dividend growth stocks in your RSP or Margin accounts?

Any examples of what you would do or insight into this would be great! I'm 35 years old and time horizon is 10-20 years (would like an early retirement haha!)

Thanks!
