Q: I would like to complete my balanced portfolio. To do so I need to buy AEM, AIF, ATD.B, BYD.UN, CCL.B, CLS,CSU,MX,PKI,SYZ, WCP,WSP
Are there any concerns here or should I just pull the trigger and buy them?
Should I buy in equal weights or match the percentage weights in the portfolio?
Are there any here I should take a pause on and wait?
Thanks for your help!

Q: I have a well diversified RRSP account with focus on income and of course some growth. The only real estate holding I have is BYP.UN and would like to add another. I am trying to decide between AAR.UN or CAR.UN. Which would be your chose, if either. I am open to other suggestions.
Thanks

Q: Let me be the first to ask about Pulse Oil Corp. PUL.X
I have been told this one is going to double to .40 or even .50 in very short order. I just watched the CEO being interviewed and he is very convincing.

CALGARY, Nov. 2, 2017 /CNW/ - Pulse Oil Corp. ("Pulse" or the "Company") (TSX-V: PUL) announces that Pulse has completed its two transactions previously reported on October 16, 2017 to consolidate its interests in the Bigoray area of Alberta, resulting in 100% control of Pulse's Bigoray operations.

Q: I am planning to get out of a full position in ZCL. I have partial positions in the other 4 above, thinking of topping up on 2 or 3 of them. Does this make sense and what would be your preference?? Thanks Jim

Q: Good afternoon. I had 1030 shares of Ebb in 2 registered accounts. I sold them today after the current slide. I would like to know of a dividend paying water play for a long term hold. Either pure water, pumping equipment or desalination. What would you advise at this time? David

Q: Hello Peter and Team, in a response to Michael (November 6th) you say that Peyto’s payout ratio is 41%. Using the Peyto data provided by TMX Money, and after a quick calculation I get a payout ratio that would be 153% (0.110 DIV x 12 months / 0.86 EPS). Could you tell me where is my mistake in making this calculation? In the event that the payout ratio is in fact 153%, then would you consided the dividend at risk? Best regards, Gervais

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
I own McEwen MIning and Gold Standard Ventures. The news on both appeared to be decent when i bought them over 4 months ago, both are down quite a bit now. Should i stick with them or take my losses and move onto Kirkland lake gold and B2 Gold? Also, is the $24 share from Aurora a Stock offer and not a cash offer for Cannimed? Is that the reason why the Cannimed shares have not increased to 24 or higher on the market (seem to be hovering between18-20 range). Thank you.

Q: Going forward, I’d appreciate your advice as to the potential to recover on these stocks. I’m down 16% on PKI, 17% KWH.UN, 18% on VET and 23% on ENB. I appreciate the dividends, am well diversified, have a half position in all but Crius (full position) and willing to hold for an extended period of time. What do you see for each of these in the next 1 - 2 year period. I guess I’m now questioning if being well diversified (energy) will continue to work against me given that it is 9% of my portfolio and I believe you’ve recently suggested 5% is adequate at this time. Subtract as many credits as warranted. Thanks!
