Q: I've been following Southern copper for a while. How safe is the dividend and is the stock at fair market value? Would you consider adding to the site acronyms that are commonplace in investing jargon? Also an explanation of what each means and how they are calculated. For example price to equity or fomo. As an older investor I'd like to be able to keep up with their current terms and meanings. Thanks Steve.

Q: I am approx. 80% invested; primarily in your balanced equity fund, with a smaller mix of some of your growth equities. I am considering adding the remaining 20% cash to my investments. Or, would you recommend waiting, or spread the investments out over a cycle of time? "Catch a falling knife comes to mind." Which 6 or so equities would you adding to, considering a 3 - 5 year time horizon?

Q: FYI - I recently asked one of my hedge funds who has a position in DND what their thoughts were on the possibility of losing TMG and their view on the LINK transaction proceeding. Below is their response, feel free to publish if you think it is of value to the members:

The TMG acquisition makes up roughly 8-9% of EBITDA so the overall impact is muted. On the call management was confident in their ability to close Link. However if that is not the case, then with the TMG sale and the cash earmarked for Link, DND will be cashed up which in theory leads to the ability for either massive buybacks or another attempt by management to go private. Either way, the channel checks which are backed up by churn rates, are constructive and the stock is one of if not the cheapest one we can find at the moment. (still trading at less than half the appropriate multiple in our view)
The financing for the Link deal is secured. It is an all cash offer and financing is interesting. Ares did a $109m equity offering at $53/share and also took $841m in preferred shares exchangeable at $60/share. The rest is financed with normal debt from Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan. Shareholder vote scheduled for July 19th.
Also management bought $50m in shares on Tuesday.

Q: Hi Peter,

It looks like capitulation is nearing. There isn't anywhere to hide anymore.

Would you wait for further drops in WMT, TGT, COST, L, and PBM or is it a good time to jump in on some or all of the these names?

Can you rank the stocks in order of preference for a 3-5 year or more hold in an RRSP? Would you purchase any of the stocks for a TFSA at this time?

Thank you
Debbie and Jerry
