Q: I have started building a position in this fund in my RIF-type account mainly for an income stream as I am retired. Although it is small, it has the major healthcare companies in its portfolio.

Is this the type of fund which you would add to, working toward a full allocation of +/- 5%?

Thanks...

Q: I would like to get you opinion on the recent press release detailing Orange's new product which is built off of Espial's HTML5 software solution.

No financial metrics were released but would this not be a potential game changer for ESP? I assume Orange is a significantly larger client than Espial's other clients that they have announced contracts with. Will Espial be seeing some revenue from this deal?

What do you think of the company in general?

Thanks

Q: Hi Peter,

So I want to pick up 3 oil/gas names and hold until 3 years. I narrowed on these. Can you please pick best 3 of your choice(on risk adjusted total return metric). Also is it prudent to overweight oil and gas to 25% of your portfolio considering there is an upside if I can hold for 3 years?

Ticker - upside delta based on consensus target price
YGR - 28%
BAD - 13%
PPY - 45%
PNE - 42%
TDG - 32%
CNE -32%

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
In my TFSA account, I hold BAM.A, DH, DHX, ET, MSI and PLI; I have room for one more holding. Would KBL add some diversification (I do not hold any of these in my RRIF portfolio) or do you have a better suggestion?
Thanks,
Antoine
