Q: Peter, I think for most SC shares at this price offer a safe 3-4% return in about 6 months

The deal Drug Mart shareholders will have the ability to choose whether to receive $61.54 in cash or 1.29417 Loblaw common
so
So worse case today buy at 59.69 sell in 6 months at 61.54.Profit of 1.85
Or 1.85/59.69x100= 3.09 % over 6 months
Add a total of a possible 2 dividends (xdiv in sept and dec) that is an additional 57 cents
Total then 1.85 + .57 = 2.42 guaranteed. A return of 4% over 6/12 or 8% annualized

Better case L is higher, eg 52.00 its 52 week high then 1.29x52= 67.00 a return of 13% or 26 annualized

In fact today L is 48.71 (48.71x1.29417=63.00)

Q: To all those who complain to 5i with regards to stock ratings and safety of stock dividends and such, Peter and his group, have the search symbol link on the right. As an investor/trader, do your own due diligence on researching the stocks you acquire by searching the symbol of interest first - recent comments with regards to WIN and how could 5i have an A rating are a good example - If you read previous responses on WIN you would see it had potential, but also Peter emphasized investor frustration with the stock in the past and highlighted risks too. For the record I invested in WIN, and still hold it understanding the risks for my situation. - Cheers, and keep up the great research & related advice service you provide.

Q: Hi there,
Like your site and the unbiased approach. I have been sent packages saying I can take part in a class action lawsuit if I fill in forms and send them in etc. The company is Sunpower,SPWR traded in US. Do I take on any financial risk by doing so? I know any payout will be small so if there is the slightest risk, I would not participate.

Q: Hi Peter. Par.un Partners Reit is paying 9.25% yield at current price. On the book value I am down approx 10% and it now represents 4% of my portfolio. I am ok with this because the sector overall is down but the high yield makes me wonder if there is some additional risk that the market is factoring in that I don't see. Would appreciate your comments and also if you feel the dividend is secure Thanks John
