Q: Do you have an updated opinion on AFN? I am holding a large position and have had a 10% gain since buying only a couple of months ago. Can we expect continued volatility and is the dividend sustainable? I'm wondering if I should trim my position and take the gains or keep for the dividend. Thanks for your continued help, you guys are great!

Q: Hi Peter I'd like to get your opinion on Seadrill. SDRL recently raised its dividend to yield 9%, has a PE of 17.6 and a PEG ratio of .44. An order backlog of 2.9 billion for 2013 and 4.5 billion for 2014. Though I do wonder about financing for their new builds.
Your thoughts on the company and industry ?
Thanks Garth

Q: Hi,
Could you please comment on whether it is better to hold XIT - S&P/TSX Capped Information Technology Index Fund
or just try to cherry pick among the 7 holdings(GIB.A,BB,OTC,MDA,CSU,CLS,WIN) there seems to be a good representation of 5i selections while the others seem to be
doing well or at least on the cusp. Thanks in advance

Q: With the recent bloodbath in the REIT sector, I've sold a handful of REIT holdings in our various portfolios. But have held on to the following despite the steep price declines: BTB, CSH, CUF, RMM and HLP. Do you see further declines with any of these? Are they likely to be fine in the long run? Our portfolios are reasonably diversified. Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter,
Do you have any advise on CTG (Global Minerals)? Recent drilling results on their silver/copper project in Slovakia appear to be quite encouraging. The infrastructure is there, initial capex is quite attractive, with production, I believe, to begin in for 2014. What do you think? Thanks for your continued invaluable insights.
