Q: Just looking at the Financial Post article of January 25, 2015 on this company-they just paid off the remaining debt and are in a free cash flow situation. I would suspect that if gold finally makes and upward move, this company would move very well with it. What do you think?

Q: Have you heard of Ardmore Shipping. They claim that oil volatility is great for their business. Oil traders are supposedly storing oil in ocean tankers in hopes of selling it at a higher price later. This is putting pressure on availability of tankers and thus prices are going up. Would you consider this stock a buy?

Q: Hello, my question is about Westernone. I hold this company in a LIF account and am thinking of transferring it at the current low valuation to avoid paying higher taxes later in the event it recovers (hopefully). I planned to withdraw from this account later in the year anyway. What do you think of the idea and if the idea is sound should it be transferred into a cash account or my TFSA.
Thanks so much for the guidance.
Brian

Q: For dividend income with some growth, which of these two, ALA, AFN, would you prefer, and why? Also, I note that in your growth portfolio you list WCP, Whitecap as having 0 dividend. I checked with TMX stock quotes and they indicate that it has about 6% dividend.

Q: I follow and am invested in the Cdn Moneysaver ETF portfolio. I just read the February update in the magazine on this portfolio and wondered why you did not top up XEG back to the 10,000 level of the original investment and possibly sell some that had gone up like XIU and SPY. Wouldn't it be good to top up on XEG now that is down? Thanks for all your help.

Q: The sector still looks volatile, but with some recent gains on these target buys (RE,WCP,RMP and RRX)it's tempting to jump in. You've mentioned that there is still no true signs of recovery in the sector (Jan 28), what exactly should I be looking for as a true sign of recovery?

Q: Hi 5i
Down 50 to 75 % on these guys. They were less than 10% now around 6% of portfolio. I held on thinking they might recover more than any other place I could put the money. Your opinion please buy , sell, or hold.
I did just buy some Vermillion in the sector.
Tks Stan

Q: Hello Folks:
We have owned CSX for a number of years and satisfied with it's performance, however indications are their star is dimming somewhat. Would you consider a trade into Union Pacific (UNP) worthwhile, or should one just sit tight?
Thanks again for your wonderful service!
