Q: Hi, I wonder if you would clarify the mechanics Gildan stock split for me - specifically the date of implementation? On the Gildan website it is described as a stock dividend with a record date of March 20th, but the stock is still trading at its pre-split price. When is the last day to purchase the stock pre-split?

Thanks

Geoff

Q: Hi 5i team!

I am scratching and pounding my head on which stocks to buy next. Here is my dilemma, I know I should buy stocks to diversify my portfolio. However, when there is blood on the streets(oil sector) it is time to buy. Need you to give me a clearer path on which stocks to buy to complement my portfolio. Here is what I have so far:

ETF; VSB 15%, VTI 15%, VEU 12% and VCE 10% which will be sold once I am a handful of stocks away from completing the model growth portfolio.

Stocks; Raging from 2% to 5%.
SJ, NUS, CXI, AYA, BNS, STN, ESL, HCG, GUD, SGY and 12% cash.

Thank you

Q: Hi Peter,
I am looking at opening a position in Gildan(GIL)and have a couple of questions. One of your concerns was with debt in your last report. LTD seems to be considerably lower as of December.If correct would this improve your rating and for EPS growth I am wondering what your estimates would be for 14&15.
Thanks
Mike

Q: This is not a question as much as a comment. GIL has been a long time hold and I agree with your comment "solid, well-managed company" but I rate it slightly higher than B personally. According to INK/TD; insiders have sold $15.5M with CFO selling $7.7M (some even as price dropping). Even tho I can't get my preferred Covered Call, I'll try to reduce my cost by a $1+ by selling some 4 5 wks. I know timing is not your thing but I thot some readers might like to read this. Great site. B
