Q: Hello Peter,
Since the article in the Globe about Nuvo Research, the stock has surged. Is there other news you are aware of that is moving the stock higher? Also, Concordia's numbers were excellent even though they missed the estimate. Is this the reason why the stock is flat since the earnings and in general when companies continue to increase their revenues and Earnings but miss estimates, is this a bad sign for a stock as i thought the analyst estimates was just one factor in buying and selling not the complete reason for owning or selling the stock. Thanks for your advice.

Q: In my portfolio I have Rio Can to cover my real estate, and I am wondering if First Service would be a better choice. I just have a small gain on Rei.un plus the dividend. Should I sell Rei.un and buy FSV? I have all the other names in your model portfolio except SYZ, & DSG.
Thanks very much for the wonderful service!

Q: Hi Team,

I'm looking for a single etf or low cost mutual fund to diversify my tfsa portfolio which currently holds only Canadian equities.

A fund that caught my eye was prpfx which is supposedly modeled on the "permanent portfolio". What are your thoughts on this fund.

Are there other products that contain fixed income and international equity which you would suggest I consider? Do you have a favorite?

Thank you very much for all of your helpful answers.

Q: I just looked at the 5 year chart for this company after it dropped yet again today.
I know you have looked at it and apprently there is no "news" to justify this degree of downward momentum.
However, no other time period in the last 5 yers comes remotely close to this kind share price decline for WEQ.
In your experience, when you see this kind of dramatic sell off do you often find that it turns out to be insiders or folks close to insiders selling on information that the rest of us do no have access to?
I have held this company for many years and done well by it, but now my instincts smell a "rat". Am I justified in feeling this way?

Thanks for another learning experience.

Q: I first want to say that I really like the service offered by 5i and have recommended it to others. I would to better understand the portfolio review service that you are now offering. Will your team be considering risk tolerance, age, etc? I just don't know how different the recommendations/feedback will be other than mirroring what the model portfolios already offer.
I am considering it, but would like to know more! (I imagine this question might be on the minds of others too)

Q: Hi Peter
Took your advice early in the week and was very happy with purchase. Did they really need to dilute things today with the new issue or are you happy with it?
Thanks for all the effort

Q: Hello,

I have watched Peter on BNN Market Call and look forward to his Top Picks. I am wondering if you can include a Blog regarding his Top Picks before airing. This will give a chance to active subscribers to do some research before hand and possibly take a position if it posted early. It may also be an added benefit to someone considering becoming a member as well.

Thank you
