Q: I was stunned to see that Sun Life tops a list of Corporate Canada's mountains of cash - a recent Globe and Mail piece - with $6 bb. Could you speculate what they might do with it? Hopefully not purchase a US mutual fund like Great West did with Putnam! On the subject of lifeco's I stumbled across an ad for a class action lawsuit with Manulife, the stock that was touted to be as safe as houses. If you purchased shares between 2004 and 2009 - which I did - you should register here http://www.classaction.ca. It's free to join.

Q: Hello and good afternoon,

Couche-Tard (ATD.B): the last post re ATD.B was end Apr, and your team spoke highly of it. That was pre-split. Has there been any material change in the corp to explain the decline over the past month (I could not find any news reports)? Ack the pending change of CEO, and perhaps it is simply a breather, providing a sale price in the process?
Thanks in advance. Bob

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
I recently purchased more shares of GS for my husbands RRSP during it's recent pullback at $28.46 as all the research I have done indicates that it is a good stable company with good growth, dividend and the potential for additonal special dividends or take. I was pleasantly surprised to see the bounce it today to $31.66 on the reported news that they were acquring another firm. I would like your opinion on this acquisition and would you continue to hold this stock? I know you like to hold for the long term but a 11% return in 11 days is tempting unless you see further upside.
Thanks for all the sound advice you provide.

Q: Air Transat (TRZ.B):

After a collapse in share price in March to $8.10, Transat's share price has been gradually recovering and then today was up over 6 percent to close at $9.40. To partially assess risk reward I look at average analysts' one year price targets which for Transat are either $15.47 (Globe) or $15.50 (Thompson R), offering significant possible upside potential. At $9.40 it is still selling at less than BV with no debt (that I can determine). It is a small position for me (about 1.5 %) but I am contemplating increasing that to perhaps 2 %, but I have no insight as to why the price has moved up. I was wondering what thoughts or recent info (in addition to your March report), you might have. Thanks.
