Q: Hello Peter and team,
I have been following the Utility Sector with interest.(Both in the stock market and my monthly bill). I see in your model income portfolio you have BEP.UN and SPB. Within the sector, could you rank the top four stocks to consider and the bottom four to ignore for now. A very short explanation would help. I am looking for long term stability and reasonable yield in a non registered account. I also see various high numbers for BEP.UN's PE Ratio. What does your research show it to be? Many thanks Paul

Q: Any comments you might have on American Vanadium (AVC) would be appreciated. I have a small speculative position : 1) like the fact that it is developing what they claim to be the only primary vanadium mine in the U.S., 2 ) that it also is in partnership with a German manufacturer, & markets/sells their batteries designed for large capacity energy storage and energy sources such as wind and solar, which given the US interest in energy self sufficiency should be gaining traction and 3) now it appears that Dundee is taking a more active role.
As always, I would value your opinion on whether you think this company has reasonable possibilities in the future.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I have some shares in Spartan Energy Corp (SPE) and I want to add some more in the next 3-6 months. I was wondering what are their current metrics. Price to earnings, price to cash flow, their overall debt amount and any other metrics I should be considering.
Thanks, Shane

Q: Hello team, wondering...could you - expain to me like I was a child....buy/sell/limit/stop. I'm confused. I saw you suggest to someone re RPi.un to put in a sell order at a higher amount than market. I have been told in the past that a sell order with a (limit or stop?) could be dangerous because in a free fall the stock could sell for much lower than I wanted to. Is there a reference for dummies on this sort of thing?
many thanks Dave
