Q: Happy New Year to the 5i Team,
I found your answer to the question regarding PHM`s year end results to be clear, factual, but guarded; understandable, considering the dramatic start to this morning`s opening of the North American markets. By the end of the day, the stock went up 25% with huge volume. I am currently with BMO Investorline, who are on record as stating that ``There are currently no news headlines for this security`. Without overstating the obvious, would you be able to offer any further observations or feedback after today`s results, on an otherwise gloomy day? I find it hard to believe that there has not been more interest shown by other members in this event. Thank you as always. Rick

Q: Hello Peter and Team,
Happy New Year. I know this is an extremely general question... What do you see as the best investing opportunity or having the biggest upside for 2016? Things to consider could be companies that were quiet/unfairly beat up in 2016, or some momentum/general trends you see emerging this year. Feel free to make this company specific or an overall sector.
Thanks,
Jordan

Q: Hi Guys,
Could you comment on PHM's stock based compensation for 2015 of $9,162,835.

Thanks

Q: Happy New Year Peter and the 5i Team,
Last year,I transferred (in-kind) some 'poorly' performing stocks from my RRIF to my non-registered account. The reason for doing this is three-fold: (1) I am in the fortunate position of not needing the RRIF income for living expenses, so am gradually reducing my RRIF portfolio even though I realize that these withdrawals are taxable.
(2) If the stocks continue to under perform, they can be used as tax-loss selling inside the non-registered account. (3) If the stocks turn around, then the non-registered portfolio will grow, and the dividend tax credit will help to reduce the overall tax burden, when applicable.
Given that my 'thesis' is valid, and if what I've outlined is a good idea, which of these "under performers" in my RRIF would you suggest be transferred to my non-registered account? ABT, G, HLF, PEY, and SPB.
Thanks to 5i's timely advice,the "outperformers" in my RRIF have done very well so that even in this difficult market, the portfolio is still up and handily beating the TSX.
Since this is a rather convoluted question, please dock my question credits accordingly!
Thanks as always.

Q: Symbility has made many announcements over the past year or two which sound positive but the stock price bounces around mostly with a gradual downtrend. Can you update your thoughts on this company? What might be a potential catalyst? Are there any concerns or red or yellow flags here. I am patient and willing to wait. Thank you and Happy New Year.

Q: What do you predict for Manitoba Tel for 2016? Is the dividend safe? Might there be a takeover? Thanks for all your advice!
Q: RIF withdrawals/ deposit: Lots of interest in TFSA's these days - but some of your customers might be in the same situation as I was re 2015 RIF withdrawals.
I believe the mandatory withdrawal rates were lowered after January 1, 2015. I had taken out my required % .... and then later in the year advised that the difference between the old %withdrawal and the new % withdrawal could be re-deposited in my RIF until Feb or March of this year.
Do you have any information on this? If so, it might be a useful option some folks by re-depositing the difference and reduce their 2015 income tax.
Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and team, Happy New Year! I am considering two of the above for my daughters TFSA where we are looking for a mix of growth and income. I believe you like all 3 stocks but they have all had a tough 2015. What is the "bear case" for each? I see a lot of positives but why are these socks moving in the wrong direction. Please rank the three in order of preference for a 2016 price recovery. Thanks

Q: What is your opinion on Park Lawn Corp, a cemetery and funeral home operator that is growing by acquisition?
I currently hold a 2.0% weighting of this company in my portfolio. Considering that this is a small company and that I am a risk tolerant investor, does this weighting seem appropriate. In light of a recent acquisition in Michigan, I have been considering bumping it up to 3-4%.
Thanks.
