Q: Hi Team,
With regards to your team's views on CSS offer being bid up, I just read that TFI has already reached the max they can borrow for the CSS deal. How are they supposed to finance a higher bid. What is the risk the offer will not be accepted by shareholders and no counter offer comes from TFI as well. Where do you think the price will head in that scenario. Thanks

Q: Hi,
As a longer term play on tv, (several years)would you prefer DTV or Dish? I own lots of Walt Disney and Cgx, but think DTV or the Dish network are quite different. DTV has a much lower PE but Dish's growth over the last five years is phenomenal.

Q: Peter et al,
I want to decrease my % holdings in oil & gas and financials. I plan on buying 1 or 2 stocks in sectors I do not own now, such as Health or health care, or industrials. I could also increase my tech holdings (ESL & SYZ). Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for your advice.

Q: In a diversified - 50 stocks - all Canadian 7 figure portfolio I hold the following 10 names with a cumulative value of 23% of my portfolio:
VSN, PPL, IPL
KEY, ALA, WCP, SGY, GEI, PEY, PKI
All of them have been very good to great this year. Some are 30 baggers over a 4 year period. I know they're all solid companies but it is too much of a good thing?
I do have solid representation in financials, REITs, tech and misc small caps in the rest of my portfolio.
My gut says let 'em run but thought I would check with the pros.
Thanks for your comments and I'll close by saying what I am sure is true for many: 5I is core to my investing knowledge and process and part of my daily reading.

Q: re:CSX
Hopefully you can help with this U$ Equity question.
I purchased 200 shares of CSX a number of months ago and it is doing ok with a good dividend. I purchased CSX because it was considerably cheaper than Can Railroads and I do have a need for U$ currency with a son that attends a US college. I have about 20% of my portfolio in US equities of which 5% is in CSX.
I have just read another article regarding CSX and they painted a picture saying "the present value of the company's discounted earnings, adjusted for dividends, is around $2 less than shares trade for right now."
It gives reasons being CSX' earnings growth estimates are lower than it's competitors. It goes on to say "Curiously, analysts have not been moving earnings estimates up at CSX as they have for Norfolk Southern (NYSE:NSC), where earnings have been furiously upgraded by more than a dozen analysts recently."
Long and short of it... it appears CSX shares' valuation has been up to the same forward earnings multiple (14) as it's competitors but doesn't appear to offer the same earnings growth going forward.
Can you give me your thoughts on CSX moving forward and do you think share value will be negatively effected based on the street consensus.
Thank you for all you do
Gord

Q: Re: HLP.UN Healthlease Properties
I currently own HLP.UN. When the takeover is completed, what happens to my exiting shares? Are they somehow rolled over into the new company or am I paid out at the takeover price?
Thank you.

Q: If I remember correctly, did you ever mention that bloomberg had a feature that showed how companies reported earnings over a certain number of quarters? If so, is there any way it could be incorporated into the site? For example, include it in the monthly portfolio updates?
Thanks again
