Does 5i have any insight into what impact these recently announced distribution agreements will have on the company?

Q: I've owned Corby for years. Do you think it's worth hanging onto, or should I sell?

Q: These 2 are trading at or near their 52 week lows. I would like your comments on why and whether they represent good value today. Also a brief discussion on risks would be appreciated.
thanks, Len

Q: Hi Can you tell me the diff between the A and B
Regards
Stan

Q: Going forward, which would you pick as an income stock with preservation of capital as paramount and why. Thank You Ron

Q: With the recent decline of CSW and VLN, do you see them has a good entry from a growth perspective? Thanks!

Q: Good Morning, Are there any Canadian companies that may benefit from the tariffs China has placed on the US. i.e. Could tariffs make Corby's more competitive in China vs. US distillers? Could CAE and BBD benefit from tariffs on Boeing?
Thanks

Q: Good afternoon:
From an income investor's point of view, could you provide recommendations of your favorite 7 to 10 companies each of which have little to no debt?
As a second question, could you also provide your top 3 to 5 growth company names, again with little or no debt.
Thank you
Ian

Q: Hi there

I have owned Corbys for quite a while and use it as a steady eady income stock. It would appear to be currently paying out more than its earnings by my brokers figures which isn't good. In the past it has paid special dividends. I see it has dropped in price to a 52 week low. I was thinking of adding to my position believing the price may rise over the next year. What do you think of Corbys going forward? Do you see it dropping further in price or more likely being a couple of dollars more in a years time?

Thanks

Stuart

Q: Any reason for Corby to take a 6% whack today?

Q: Reviewing my portfolio at this time of year,i have decided to take a more defensive approach for 2018.I have recently purchased a couple of gold stocks(aem & lk).I am unsure if gold still has the downside protection for a portfolio that it used to.
Also with the expected interest rate increases will dividend paying large caps have the desired benefit of portfolio protection?
Do you have any suggestions on some debt free dividend paying companies that will do well in a flat or slightly down market.I don't care if they are small,medium or large cap companies!

Q: Could I get your opinion on DWS, ADW.A and CSW.A?

It looks like DWS is extremely undervalued by the market. Has traded sideways for the last 6 months but recently broke out.

Many Thanks!

Q: Your opinion of corby for income,stability and defence.As a second question, your opinion of dws as a lottery pick.Thanks.

Q: Would you own, for example, half positions of each of these companies or just pick one over the other? Thank you.

Q: Please comment on recent results

Q: Greetings,

I have held Corby for a long time as part of my income portfolio. Generally this stock has been less volatile than the market in general. However, it seems to be 'soft' lately. Can you comment on the stock. Happy to just keep it for the nice steady dividend.
Thanks

Q: Appreciate your thoughts on Corby, which I've owned for several years with a small price appreciation. Dividend is nice but stock won't go up. I already own Andrew Peller, would you recommend selling Corby and do you have any advice on replacement consumer discretionary.
Thank you.

Q: I currently have CSW.A which is not doing very well in my balanced portfolio, would you consider replacing it with MX?

Q: Please comment on Corby's most recent quarter. Does the Trump anti-trade stance affect Corby's any more than other stocks?
Also, they have paid special dividends in the past, do you foresee the likelihood of a special dividend in 2017?
Thanks for your great service.

Q: Okay I did put the symbols for the companies in the proper place--just didn't use capitals--thought you might b able to answer. Anyway, for the 4th time what do you think of these companies? Thank you
