Q: Hi 5i team,

Do you see the recent pullback in DHX Media as a buying opportunity? I can't seem to find any news on the recent price decline. I assume profit taking from its run up over the past year. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Q: Not a question, but a comment: regarding YAK, it is a company run by Harris Kupperman and Jordan Calonego, who have experience running a hedge fund (Praetorian) and several small businesses (self storage, construction, etc.), respectively. As far as I know, they take no salary, have no stock options, and instead simply hold ownership of the shares to align their interests with shareholders. There was a strange lockup period with the shares for quite some time, and selling was extremely restricted.

The Mongolia Growth Group website has all their monthly reports and updates, and Harris runs a website adventuresincapitalism.com, which has some pretty interesting commentary from time to time. I believe there was a presentation on YAK at the Las Vegas Value Investors Conference.

I don't own any shares, but have been keeping an eye on the company for a while. I like the Mongolia thesis, but view an investment as being at the top end of the risk spectrum since frontier market governments can nationalize assets at any time.
Feel free to post this if you feel it adds value to other subscribers.

Q: Hello all ... Interest rates are such a big factor in my retirement forecast. With the lowering of interest rates in Australia and comments by Mark Carney from the UK of rates not to go up till '15, are these countries indicators of when interest rates may increase here in Canada.

Thanks for your comments.

Q: I have a question about your rating system and apologize if the same question has been asked and answered recently (I'm a new member). If a company is rated A for example and has gone up substantially since you gave it this rating will the rating be downgraded eventually reflecting the higher valuation or does the rating only reflect your views on the quality of the company, it's management etc? Does the "A" rating mean that you feel it's not only a good company but is also trading at a good price? Thanks.

Q: Preferred share etf's such as CPD are dropping rapidly over the last few days. Are they more likely than not to continue to fall? Is it time to bail, take a loss, and invest in dividend paying common stocks instead? I have about 10% of my non-registered portfolio in Prefs. Thanks for any thoughts you may have.
