Q: While I thought that Home Capital's results looked reasonably good, the market does not appear to be overly impressed given the drop in the share price today, What is it about the results that the market does not like?

Q: Dear 5i team,
Can you please post your thoughts on Magna's earnings. Things look ok to me... not a "blow out" quarter but looks good. The stock sold off on the open and then moved back up towards yesterday's close.
Thanks!

Q: CGX
I hold Cineplex in my RRSP. I don't quite understand why the stock is down so much based on its recent quarterly report. Report doesn't look bad to me but perhaps I'm missing something. I like the yield on this stock and don't mind holding it for the long term but don't want to get caught in a long term yield trap. Should I be concerned with its lagtest quarterly report?

Q: Could you comment,please,on Linemar's latest earnings.(1st Qtr.)
Q: Find below your last take on Yellow Media. Any updated view, or endorsement coming?
Yellow made $1.51 per share in the last quarter, and analysts estiimate more than $4.70 per share in 2014, so it is a very low P/E ratio, but not quite as low as RBC indicates. 2013 estimates for the full year when reported are above $6. We have not liked the company much, but need to give it some credit. Online revenue has grown, and was $101 mm in the last quarter. Total revenue is still falling fast, however, with print essentially set to disappear over time. Y still has $600 million in debt, even after eliminating more than $1 bb in debt in its restructuring. As a highly-leveraged, high-risk recovery play it has some merit for aggressive investors. But we cannot endorse it just yet.

Q: Hello Peter & Team, what did you think of the Redknee (RKN) quarter just reported? Can we annualize the 5 cent quarterly eps and deduct 20 cents as the annual eps running rate (implying a 23 x PE ratio? What do you make of valuation? Many thanks, Keith
Q: Hi 5i,
Do you have an updated view on CEIBA? They recently announced their quarterly results and mommentum seems to be picking up in the name? Do you know much about the large shareholder John Hooks from your prior dealings in the hedge fund space (currently Chairman of CEU as an example)?

Q: Hello again just your thoughts on Perrigo Company
Q: Can you comment on Canadian Western Bank pls? Is this a good entry point? Tx
Q: This is not a question about AVO! (however I did buy some today).
I have some more questions on SWC.U.
May I have your thoughts on the latest quarterly report - any danger signs there? How do you interpret the drop in management expenses? Are the grades and reserves OK?
What does it mean when a stock symbol ends with ".U"? What is a "diluted share"?
Is this stock highly speculative? I would need to reduce an overweigh position in LIF to purchase SWC.U. Does that make sense? (I wouldn't be comfortable with a weighting purchase greater than 2%.)
I know I have asked alot of questions so I don't expect an immediate answer.
I have just made a donation to your charity event and I encourage other members to do so. Bicycling in the mountains eh... One of the few events (stocks) where riding it to the bottom is more fun than the climb to the top - unless you blow a tire - so slow down!

Q: PLZ Plazacorp. It has been almost 6 months since you commented on Plazacorp, and given that interest-sensitive stocks/units have come somewhat back into vogue in that time, is Plazacorp a solid, long-term investment today? Thank you as always...

Q: I understand that one of the tests for the suitability of a dividend stock is the distribution rate. For some industries e.g. REITS one should calculate based on cash flow not earnings. Which industries does this theory apply to and why? Is the theory that, for example, depreciation can be ignored due to value increase in assets? Non comprendo.
Q: SLW - with continuous drop and volatile stock price ., is this is good candidate for a conservative / income portfolio. Is there a better or smooth ride way to achieve similar objective as SLW, is supposed to do. Thanks
Q: Hi,
I know this is a busy time for you. When you have a moment, could you comment on ESN, as it just released its earnings on May 6, which were lower than expected. My view is that ESN is fine in the long term and that the dividend is safe, but I would naturally appreciate your view.
Thank you for your service,

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
What are your thoughts on Crawford & Company, CRD.B. Firstly to me, they seem complicated with having two classes of shares where they distribute different dividends to. Anyhow, i await your thoughts.
