Q: Morning guys:
I own the these 3 I’m down significantly with all three. All three of these have solid management teams and I have confidence to hold and dollar cost average for the long haul. Is it time to add at current prices.
Thanks
Mark.

Q: Hi 5i:
I have held both before and sold for gains. Would you favour one over the other now or take partial position in both assuming they both are buys? TFSA or RIF or it doesn't matter which? I am a long term investor and I feel well diversified.
Thanks for your thoughts,

Tom

Q: Hello, I own an equal amount of CCL.B and ITP representing 4% of my total portfolio. Both of them have been down for a while. Do you think it is a smart move to sell ITP and concentrate on CCL.B? Thanks

Q: Hi 5I - I need some materials exposure and was looking at MX and CCL. Which one would you prefer for a 4-5% weighting or should I add both at say 3% each? Thanks, Neil

Q: Greetings, I have not asked a question for a while now (2 years?); here it goes. This seems like a good time to deploy some of my cash held in my TFSA. Can you suggest a stock similar to KXS in potential? Maybe GUD, PHO? Thanks as ever.

Q: Hello Peter,

First off, great job on BNN yesterday! Your comments helped reinforce on focusing on the long term and not quarterly results. Just to recap your theme, I have listed the companies with let's say "quarterly miss" , however, with a market over reaction to the downside. Can you add or delete other companies that fit in this category?

Thank-you for being in our investment corner.

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan,

We have a few dogs with the downturn but we also cashed in all of our high runners in early October. Your insight is invaluable in our portfolio management strategy and we understand the decision to buy or sell is in our control. On that note, we have been buyers the past two weeks when a stock drops 25%-40% (i.e. KXS today at $67.99). Can you comment on the following opportunities (BYD.UN, WSP, NFI, CCL.B, PBH, SHOP, ENHG) to purchase now with a 3-5 year hold inside RRSP's.
1. Please rank (based on your expertise) the above stocks from best to worst as of today to add to an RRSP.
2. Which of the above, if any, are considered "prime" to purchase today.

Thank you
Jerry and Debbie

Q: You have already responded about the earnings - my questions is more about strategy. Both these stocks broke their intermediate trends (using 200 MA) sometime ago (I think you called it a technical breakdown) . But both price and now earnings momentum are horrible why hold? I realize in the long term maybe okay but when things get this ugly (down more than 20% from their high) would it not it be better to allocate capital some where else - rather than have dead money? Thanks

Q: Both companies missed and are getting punished today. Would you consider them buying opportunities and would you add to existing half positions in either? Thanks

Q: Tough to perform better than market when stocks get crushed like this. Are these turns or over-reaction?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan,

For a long-term hold, is today a good entry point for PBH and CCL.B? If so, would you purchase a full or 1/2 position? If only one was to be purchased which has the best value and upside? One last question, are they best held in a TFSA or RRSP?
Please take the appropriate credits for our inquiry.
Cheers,
Jerry and Debbie
