Q: Looks like interest rates are to remain low.
In your opinion how will that affect stocks such as SLW & G.

Thank you as always

Q: Hi Team: A general question on securitization: why do finance companies not just keep the receivables and collect the interest themselves? I suppose there is an advantage to selling off the assets and redeploying the capital again? Does this reduce their risk profile and make it easier to borrow? thanks

Q: Your comments re RMP have changed slightly from September to January 21st. What have you learned since September? I'm looking for an entry in O & G (mostly O) to take advantage of the season. Is RMP a worthwhile consideration or are there others? RMP's chart has broken above an intermediate downtrend line today.

Q: Hi 5I Team In trying to make a decision on Essential Energy (ESN) I was trawling 5I for some insight. On Nov 8, in a response to Hal, it was noted that ESN was “... a very cheap stock and revenue still increased despite sector weakness.” On Nov 26, in response to Ken, it was noted that “... shares are not exactly cheap but we like the company.” I’m confused as to how to read this -- is it still a hold? ... and is the company cheap, fairly valued or expensive? Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter & Co.,

You gave me a fairly bearish response to a question I had on Bombardier last year, resulting in me selling half of my position. Thanks for that, obviously I regret not selling the entire thing. They have just announced layoffs, and Canaccord Genuity has stated “We are concerned that continued cash outflows from the program could put pressure on the company’s liquidity position, possibly resulting in a dilutive equity issue,” which of course has been one of your biggest criticisms for BBD.B. Is it time for me to right my wrong and dump the remaining half position, or is most of the bad news already baked in to current price, and just continue to hold (as part of an otherwise fairly good mix of industrials)?

Thanks Team.
