Investment Q&A

Q: How do you view the chances of a competitor (or another company wanting AVO's technology) acquiring Avigilon? I believe in the past you said this was probably the end result for Avigilon.

It seems to have a unique technology offering and after a nearly 50% decline in the share price it would seem like an opportune time.

Thanks.

Q: Avigilon -- The Next Generation -- I apologize in advance for this question, and I'll reprimand myself at great length later -- but I am very interested in the support pricing on AVO. I had recently requested your "great Canadian pick" for my grandson's legacy, and you had suggested this stock. Not that I don't agree with you, but at the same time I was wondering whether I should be buying now, or wait a bit longer. My TD Technicals show that AVO has an intermediate support level of $11.25 and a longer term support of $17.09. Ouch. I mean, really "ouch" (since I own the stock in my own registered portfolio and am hanging on with fingernails after 30% loss.) In any case, since I'm in for the longer term, would you advise waiting a bit -- ie. do the technicals look to you like they may actually bottom out around the $12 level. I realize you don't dabble too much in technicals, and I respect that, but still you must have come across this type of selling before, in your profession, and was wondering what your gut tells you on this one. Sorry again, for two questions in two days, but I promise I'll hide for a while after this! Thanks, as always.

Q: Liquor store reported earnings today, and the stock is down 6% what is your opinion on the earnings, and management turn around strategy?

Q: An offering of Artis REIT ( AX.UN ) came up yesterday , but it didn't sell out in the usual 10 minutes... I bought some a position at less than market and I notice it is still on the New Issue list this morning ( which surprises me ) . 6% yield . Are people justifiably shy of Office Space REITS ?

Q: Hi Peter, Corridor Resources (CDH.to) reported Q1 today. What do you think of the results and stock price here ? Thank you, Paul

Q: Technically, SYZ looks like it is setting a slanted base - not surprising after such a run

I would appreciate your fundamental view on the company at this point. If all is the same (or better :-)) as a few months ago, I may start getting in

Thanks

Q: Good morning Peter, I'm wondering what your thoughts are on HWO, high arctic energy for my TFSA? I may be slightly overweight in oil/oil services overall but don't hold anything like that in my TFSA and I'd like to find something with good growth potential for the TFSA. Thanks.

Thanks

Q: Hello 5I team,
I feel a little repetitious in thanking you for your wonderful service. But, i think that we are all so impressed that we are compelled to do so over and over again!

My question involves Metro (MRU). You mentionned that you didn't think it was one of the best in this area, I believe. You seem to like Loblaws more, if I am not mistaken. But, the question I have concerns the fact that Metro owns a number of Alimentation Couchetarde shares. About seven or eight per cent I believe. Would you see this as a hidden asset and worth holding on to Metro because of? I have a good profit on Metro but I am looking for a few candidates for thinning the herd. Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I just read an article about a satellite company offering a free tracking service for aircraft that fly over the sea: "U.K. satellite company Inmarsat is offering a free tracking service to all passenger airlines -- an issue that drew international attention after Malaysian Airlines' MH370 disappeared on March 8."
In your estimation, does this hurt Flyht's(FLY) prospects?
