Please consider companies beyond those listed above.

Q: I am primarily building an income portfolio for retirement in 5-6 years. It will represent about 30-40% of my retirement income. Alongside this I like to invest in some equities for capital gains. My question revolves around the need for any value investments I have owned EFV for about 10 years and really has done nothing. I also own the Chou 100 and 102 funds. My question is whether or not you think to be properly diversified one should have some money in value investments. If so, what ones would you recommend.

Thank You

Paul

Q: DCM was a top pick on BNN. I had never heard of it so did a quick peak at the management presentation and the numbers on TD web broker. Not a big fan of the print business but the numbers looked amazing. According to web broker its barely trading at 1x cashflow or earnings. Does that seem right? How much cashflow are they actually generating and what is the total level of debt?
What are you current thoughts on the company?
