Q: Hi, I've read your bullish comments on a stock I've owned for years, PBH. If you look at a chart of PBH, it recently seems to be parabolic, which is usually a very bad sign for a stocks future.

Comments?

Q: Your rating on this stock puzzles'me at a b+ the stock is range bound and illiquid when one gets in very difficult and expensive .RPI.un is rated at a C+ and has much the same problems with liquidity but much more growth and just increased its dividend .I hold both these stocks but the latter is a far better performer with a whole letter grade lower by your system
Your rating metrics confuse me .

Q: Please identify CAD hedged ETFs that track the world index, the way that VT does (VT would work, but it is only offered in
USD). I just looked up VXC (all world except Canada) but it is not identified by Vanguard as being CAD hedged.
If one ETF will not do the job, please list a basket and I'll buy the separate ETFs in a ratio to match VT. The important part is that the ETFs suggested be Cad Hedged.
Also, I plan to put this strategy to work in a TFSA. Are there any tax consequences I should consider at the outset?
There has been much written at 5i over hedging. What would be 5i ETF strategy for global coverage, in a TFSA, for a long term hold?

Q: AMGN seems to have a broader range of products on the market than GILD which appears to be hepatitis-c drug weighted, so why is AMGN not the better stock to purchase in your view? Thanks for your take vis-a-vis these two US stocks.

Q: Would buying while the company is restructuring and looking at cutting costs be considered a risky move? Should I wait until a few quarters pass so that the stock can prove itself? What are your current thoughts on the company overall?

Q: Hi Peter and Team - Would you be able to give me an update on Mirasol Resources, regarding both their balance sheet and their properties. This is one of Brent Cook's recommendations. I have seen him interviewed on BNN a few times and have been quite impressed with his knowledge and general approach to investing in junior gold companies. Am just wondering if you have had any experience with his success in this field. Thanks.

Q: I have 50k in ZDV and 50K in ZPR, now wondering what to do with additional money I want to contribute on a weekly/monthly basis. I am thinking of adding XEI,or ZRE but not sure. I like continuous income that I can re-invest while my underlying security rises. I was also thinking of investing for international diversification but I will not get the dividend tax advantage, so also looking at taxes. I can always continue to add to my existing positions, sitting on the fence not knowing which side to go. Any suggestions for a middle aged man.

Q: Hi recently CPD has dropped so much, so my first concern is why. Secondly, since it is a preferred shares ETF, I thought it is very low-risk (dividends paid before common shares)and I suggest my parents to use their line of credit (interest rate lower than 3% annually) to buy it for retirement (use the monthly distribution to pay off monthly payment). Simply put, borrow money to invest in CPD. Let me know your views on my thinking and please be specific. Thank you very very much !!! Tony

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
It was my understanding that ASR was a solid company. However it has remained in a range for several years now and has not participated in the gold rally. Is the political conflict in Turkey a drag or are there other factors! Please give your assessment. Would you still prefer MND over ASR.
Your assistance is always invaluable!
