Q: Hi Peter and team,
Thank you for your invaluable advice. I am considering to add either CSH.UN or ACC at current prices. Pl advise which is better and why as regards to valuations and dividends?

Q: Why is my CBO 5 year laddered corporate bond ETF giving me a present yield of about 4%. The best 5 year corporate bond I can find available to me as a DYI investor on TDWH yields only about 2.5% at. Why the difference. Should I be worried. I am 57 years old and approaching retirement and feel the need for some fixed and CBO seems the option. What to do about the fixed income portion. Sometimes I think for the fixed income component it would be best just to stay in an investment savings account which pays 1.25% and eliminates the risk of loss of capital.

Q: SYD. Synodon has had a significant move recently. It represents a small (< 1%) position in my portfolio. Can you explain the recent rise on high volumes. Should I cash in my 100%+ gain and run, or wait because something is developing here.

Q: Good Day!

St. Andrew's Goldfields (SAS) is dropping like a stone despite what appears to be encouraging drill results. My understanding is that this is a producing gold mine. IS there a reason for the drop? Is this a good opportunity to double down?

Thanks,

DON

Q: Hi Peter and team,

I have been doing quite well in the markets for the last two years or so, thanks in large part to your outstanding service. I have been an active member from the beginning.

My question is, as of today, if there was one or two sectors you would take profits in, which ones would they be?

Thanks

Q: Hi Peter & Team,
Based on your answer to a question asked by Jonathan on Mar. 24th (RX), would it be a proper timing to purchase CXR (looks like it's in a "hipper" phase) or wait until it will "settle down"?

Q: A response to Evan on a forum for discussion.

I have monitored a discussion board for 11 years. I know most have this problem

"head and shoulders above the type of audience that plague other investing sites. "

It is a time consuming exercise to monitor discussion and you must be prepared to eliminate any possible problem. I have the power to delete posts and/or ban posters. I also may be freer to eliminate problem posts/posters than the 5i team might be. I believe my forum is known for no conflict and especially no politics. I do not have any expertise that the 5i team could offer.

5i--I separate this in case you want not to publish this link--I am neutral on it.

Q: I am really seeing great value in my membership with 5I, keep up the good work.
Other than the stocks in the model portfolio which I am using for my Canadian exposure, could you please suggest one stock to buy approx $20,000 worth with good growth potential over the next 6-9 months.

Q: Do you feel Bank of America ( BAC ) , which I bought on Friday , is heading up or did it just top out ? Have I made a timing error ?

Q: hi peter, i currently have my pension in stocks that are split between US and International companies the last year; after the good run they had last year, as the TSX was lagging, but still gaining, i am wondering if know is a good time to re-invest in the TSX and switch to totally TSX equities. Basically i am trying to decide which market has the better potential for large cap stock gains over the next 12 to 18 months?
