Q: Hello,
Taking into account that you like this stock, can you please comment on the valuation of this company (price / cash flow i assume would be the best metric ?) vs the sustainability of their growth rate, assets / reserve, volatility to commodity price and vs competing companies in the industry. Thank you for your great service.

Q: Peter and Team,

There is a bond in the "high yield" category available through my broker for Vermillion Energy. The Maturity is Feb. 2016 and it is showing a coupon of 6.5% and an ask price of $101.850. I like the short duration and I think the yield looks good. Any thoughts and buying or not buying this bond? My aim is simply to buy the bond and hold to maturity to collect the yield and then get my principal returned.

Q: hello 5i team

Have been watching GILD for a while now as I think there is tremendous potential. Having said that today it was reported AbbVIE appears to have pulled a bit of a fast one on GILD by convincing the patent office they have invented a novel computer model to predict effective combination therapies. This has apparently convinced the patent office the very same patents applied for by GILD back in Sept actually belong to AbbVIE.

It was these very patents which gave GILD such a big upside moving forward but now it appears with AbbVie jumping into the picture the market is not looking favorably at GILD with it down almost 10% in 10 days and dropping.

Both are now suing each other.

Can you shed any light on all this for us and exactly what it means for GILD moving forward.

Thanks for all you do

Q: I know one can't time the bottom. In your opinion, are we near a bottom or at a point where you would be comfortable suggesting some buying opportunities in this sector, or would you advocate waiting longer?

Thanks for your advice.

Q: In 2011, I purchased 2000 shares of CCO for growth in my RRSP prior to the collapse of uranium prices. CCO has recovered a bit but I am still down 33%. I am toying with selling now, absorbing the loss, and redeploying the approx. $42K to higher-yielding stocks like FRU or AW.UN with potentially better medium-term growth prospects. Now retired, I want more income and think CCO is dead money, at least for the next few years.
I would welcome your opinion on this approach.

Q: Peter:

Caldwell Partners International (TSX: CWL) released fiscal 2014 report this evening and the results look outstanding year-over-year. They even increased their dividends. This stock seems totally mispriced, even on a trailing basis. Do you agree?

Q: Hi 5i Team. Would really appreciate your current thoughts on Axia Netmedia as a growth stock within a senior's portfolio. Too risky or worth the gamble in a TFSA or ???. Thanks for your valuable advice. Much appreciated.
