Q: In my wife's TFSA she currently holds MFC and PJC , both with substantial gains. We are thinking about selling the MFC and half the PJC. This would bring PJC back to the original investment amount.Does this seem like a reasonable strategy based on the outlook for these companies?
For reinvestment we are looking at KBL, AHF and VRX. Would these present better growth opportunities? If not, anything else you would suggest?
Many thanks
Mike

Q: Good Morning,
Just subscribed to your newsletter/site. Fantastic service. As a former Financial Addvisor I share Peter's views with the conflicts inherent in the industry.
I own a few shares in Edleun (EDU). Their business model seems quite sound to me. I wonder if it would be worth averaging down a little on this?
Any thoughts on EDU?
Cheers,

Q: I would like your opinion of Uranerz URZ (Amendment to annual report and the financing through bonds). Would you agree the uranium companies have bottomed, from what I see it looks like supply is going to be short in a year or 2. thanks

Q: Hello 5I

I am interested in MXF from First Asset. Specifically what do you think about the 25% covered call strategy? Also given the materials sector as a whole do you think that this is a good way to have strong cash flow while also positioning for upside with an eventual market upturn? When I contrast this etf versus say XMA the near term cash flow is extremely tempting at these valuations.

Thanks in advance for the great work and I greatly appreciate your web site and opinions.

Q: What constitutes a "defensive" stock? What percentage of a portfolio should defensive stocks play in today's financial climate? Would you consider the following to be defensive holdings: Any of the big five Canadian Banks, Telus, Enbridge, Cineplex, Power Financial, a food company like Saputo or Empire. If these don't fit the bill I would appreciate your suggestions. Thank you. John.

Q: Hi 5i Team and Peter, I am about half in cash, and considering new investments, but when i look at the steep charts of most of the companies in the A to B categories and in the the model portfolio, I feel like I've definitely missed the boat. Will you be reporting on new companies or turnaround stories so new investors can capture some similar growth?
I feel pretty good about AYA, which I own (thanks for that one), and, I'm looking for similar stories. I don't need a dividend, and I have a very high tolerance for risk. Would EQI be one that I should consider. I like the fact that 5i knows management and expects rapid growth in 2013, but as a poker player, I feel I understand the gaming business better than the "mortgage" business. If not EQI, can you recommend a couple of other stories that are just "beginning to unfold"?
