Q: What is you view/outlook on BTO? Looks promising for the year ahead but it seems that gold prices under $1200/oz keeps BTO from moving. Is that a concern or do the merits of the company and growth potential be the reason for investing in spite of gold make dips under $1200/oz?

Thank You
Marc

Q: What do you think of WXM? Seems like an interesting way to get a Canadian index etf with a momentum overlay. Performance has been very good even in the face of the oil and gas meltdown on the tsx. Is this kind of strategy proven to work over long periods of time or is it a flash in the pan? Thanks for the great service.

Q: Please provide your opinion this US ADR: Barclays preferred share series D. Please comment on the risk of it being called and where you expect the yield to be over the next 12 months.

(I like this ADR because its has great yield; good for US income; and there is no US tax withholding on the dividends.)

Q: What's your best pick for the gold sector at this time. I have zero exposure, long time horizon and I am looking for growth most of all. I will sell my CCT holdings to pick up some gold exposure.

Q: May I please have the benefit of your views on AAA given the recent news stating "Canada's Allana Potash Corp said on Tuesday it will talk with Norwegian fertilizer producer Yara International and three other companies about sharing costs and output in its plan to produce premium fertilizer in Ethiopia." I have held AAA for some time now and my average cost base is .91. As always, thanks much!

Q: Hi,

I hold Stella Jones in my RRSP and know you like the company. I'm considering selling my position in CNR which is held outside my RRSP as many see it as expensive at this point and adding SJ in order to maintain exposure to this sector. Can you compare the valuation of the two and provide your thoughts on my strategy.

Thanks

Q: I wonder if you can comment on the latest earnings report from Savaria. It would seem to warrant a more positive share price reaction.

Q: Hi, I bought a lot of LRE.to in the past couple month between the price of $1 to $1.3. I am currently worried that this company may not be able to survive through oil price recovery. I also worried if I sell it now, the stock may go up huge if the oil price goes up. Should I sell it and change to a similar oil company but with less debt and safer to survive the low oil price? Do you have any suggestions? Thanks

Q: Looks like after over a two year wait I finally got my wish. Starbucks has announced a 2:1 stock split. Currently their dividend is 0.32 per quarter. Is it safe to assume that after the split the dividend will only be 0.16 considering that there will be double the shares? I see nothing to indicate that I should sell any of my shares going forward and I am thinking I should continue to hold for another 4-7 years. Compiling all my accounts Starbucks is a 5.86% of everything that I have invested. What are your thoughts on Starbucks going forward

Thanks

Q: To ad to your reply to Thomas: TPK has recently been operating in a near perfect scenario. Revenue mainly in US $, many costs in Canadian $. They should be blowing the doors off. If not now, then when?

On a positive note, I notice that Tim Hortons is currently running TV ads in TO promoting TPK's Swiss Water Process. No idea if TPK is funding any of the ads.

Might want to hold for a few more months to see if the stock gets some more lift.

Q: I own CCT on the tsx - will the price continue to fluctuate based on exchange rate until the deal is closed, and therefore, if C$ continues to slide, it is better to hold for now and look at selling if there seems to be some strength coming back in the C$ ?
