Q: Can IWO be held inside a TFSA since it consists of american stocks. Is there a 15% claw back on the dividend. Would it really be considered a growth name since it consists of many companies. Thank You for the great service.

Q: Reported recently & missed by .01. Based on TTM: ROE 76%, EGrowth 59% -reports Q1 15 mid May, I believe? I was thinking of waiting for these results before buying for longer hold as oil prices start increasing later in the year as long as the dividend is sustainable-pay me to wait??

Q: Hi Team, with the recent rise of Surge, I am down (only!) 16% and thinking of bailing to buy a few more stocks in your new growth portfolio. So far I own PLI, PHM, IT, XTC and DRT. Do you suggest this move, and if so, what would be the next 3 stocks you would suggest. Thank-you so much for your service.

Q: Good morning,General tax question.Bought US shares in 2012 at exchange rate of 1.0008 and sold in 2014 at rate of the day of 1.1074. Do I adjust the cost at rate of day and sales price at rate of day before calculating gain/loss or calculate gain/loss and convert that figure only at rate of day of sale?
Makes a big difference! Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter,
I friend of mine recently recommended DGS. With a yield of over 13% and having paid this dividend since 2007 would this be a good stock to own. Thank you for your help.

Q: Great service! Just a thought, I know your Coverage Summary is crowded, but it would be good to see where the company falls within your Portfolios. In other words, create a heading called Portfolio and in the company's corresponding cell, put the Portfolio name in which it resides.

Q: Peter and team:
I have watched this one from the sidelines for some time now. It is currently on a bit of a roll. Your last comment on CCO was back in Feb. Is there anything driving the current upward trend, and What are your thoughts on this stock as a 5 year+ investment? Is the 800 mil. potential back tax a real issue?

Thanks
Phil

Q: I'm looking at the debentures. I thought I read that the new issue will be added to last years debentures, is it just one debenture - CSU.DB? The way this is structured with the 5 year notice, if notice is given, would the principal be paid back at 100 after 5 years, I don't fully understand the may redeem "at a price equal to the principal thereof and accrued and unpaid interest.....". Would interest rate increases move the price of the debenture down a lot because it is 2040? Would this be good to buy right here at $122 with the intention of holding for 5-10 years and then selling?
