Q: I am thinking of selling ZUH for KSI/VHI. ZUH maybe safer, though I am looking for more growth. Would you recommend a combination of VHI/KSI or just 1? Other recommendations?

Thanks for your service!

Q: Hi Peter, I thought I finally had a winner with CSU. I have 7 shares and it was nice when they were close to 5000.00, thinking they might go higher. It's always hard to sell the winners. Even though I still have a bit of a gain is it time to forget about this high price for CSU. I know you can't predict the future but how low could this go, it's not going to be another Nortel, or drop down to 500 or 700 is it? Would it be a good time to add or sell. Can you give us some encouragement or some guidance with this. Much appreciated.

Q: Hello Peter
with the lower interest rate and the debt accumulated by US and Cdn govt
(correct me if I am not right, the Cdn central bank needs to buy more gold)
it accounts for the rising prices of gold and the gold stocks including ETF like XGD
what would be a economic scenario that could cause the gold stocks or gold in general to pull back by 15 to 25 % either sharply or over a 3-6 months period, your
wisdom is appreciated
alot of us has some gold stocks that has done well
thanks
Michael

Q: I saw a video clip of the Parliamentary Budget officer giving a dire review of the financial health of the country. Pretty much saying it is unsustainable unless something is done quickly. Are you recommending any significant changes to individual investors portfolios based on these findings? What would happen to stocks if Canada defaulted on its debt?

Q: Hi 5i, here goes another CSU family Q.


Yesterday you mentioned a 10% drop would not surprise you. Well it's here. Based on your ability to use Bloomberg and other valuation tools, where do see the next floors down in the elevator so to speak. And based on these two events in the past week, how long will the family be in the dog house? Also I'm asking this on the assumption you are still fans. Thx.

Q: UCU has had a strong run. With its critical mineral focus, apparently unique RapidSX technology, its build out in Louisiana, and funding support from the US Army, how does it look to 5i's for future stock appreciation? Fundamentals? Would 5i's consider it a worthy investment or is the stock more likely to crash after its 1000%+ climb this past year?

Many thanks.

Q: I have noticed that a number of the large banks have had a big rise recently. I am wondering about the reason for this. Specifically, is this a flight to safety going on in the background? Or is it the interest rate reduction or something else?
Thanks

Q: Are you comfortable buying PNG at current price? If not, what would be your target to buy? Looking to start a position.

There has been a couple questions lately regarding GSY and PRL. In one question, you answer PRL over GSY. And then the next day, you indicate GSY over PRL. Which do you consider a better buy for growth, and why? I think also you mentioned there was going to be a follow up report on PRL. Is that still the case?

Thanks!

Q: Is there any way to determine how "pure a play" L is as a consumer defensive vs MRU? What I am trying to get at is that there are a lot of consumer discretionary type items sold at Shoppers (probably the majority of the revenue?). Even Loblaw stores sell clothes. Metro seems to me more a defensive name in terms of groceries. Are there any publicly disclosed facts to prove or disprove this thesis? Thanks as always for your thoughts.
