Q: Hello Peter,
I recently opened a joint account funded with cash for my wife and myself. We're starting with a clean slate as we've liquidated some other less interesting holdings to fund the new account.
We're both in our late 30s and will continue to add funds to this account as we can.
From the model portfolio, what holdings would you start with? Our account isn't big enough yet to buy board lots of all of model.
Looking for 5 things that we could buy now.
We already hold BNS, ENB, ESL, and T from the model portfolio.

Q: Peter and Team,
With Stantec's valuation today, is it still one of the better places to put money to work? I am thinking as a risk-adjusted good return company.
Thanks and good luck on the ride, Peter!

Q: Stantec's planned 2 for 1 stock split is, according to the news release, 'to be effected by way of a stock dividend'. Is this a different approach to stock splits that I've experienced with other companies? I don't recall a dividend aspect in those cases. How will this work? Any tax implications? Thanks.
Q: Could you explain the Stantec STN 2 for 1 stock split in plain language please. I have read the news release.
Thank you

Q: Stantec - puzzling
He guys
Saw your answer June 17 when asked about an assortment of options and you suggested STN was still your favorite. Knowing how you analyze in general, I have no doubt STN numbers look very good as does their long term history of quality results.
Mid Feb I took a 10% position and since then (not counting dividends) am down 1%. Long and short of it thus far this year there has been very little capital appreciation at any time. I do plan on holding for the long term but am curious if there are any reasons in particular that might explain the lethargic growth thus far this ear.
Thanks for all you do
Gord

Q: Good afternoon,
Re Stantec STN, I have noticed over the last several days that there has been a persistent unusual trading pattern: the stock goes up nicely to high $67's 0R $68 until about 15 minutes before closing and then plunges to no gain or a loss on the day. Although I plan to hold for a long time, I am curious about what this means. Is someone unwinding a large position? Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: I am looking at Stantac and Aecon with a view to purchase one of these two stocks. I have looked at various metrics and find it hard to see where one would have the edge over the other. Could you please tell me which you would favour of these two stocks and why, especially with regards to the current and likely economy going forward over the next two years. Thank you for your terrific advice as always.
Q: Sell BCE and buy Stantec. We are heavy in utilities and light on industrials. Good idea? THANKS

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Stantec's (STN) quarterly results seemed pretty solid to me (May 15). Did they meet expectations and do you have any comments on this quarter's report? I'm in for the long haul but would appreciate any comments you have at this point in time.
Thanks very much. Michael

Q: STN - Stantec
5i April 11 comment mentioned "trading a bit unusual" on "relatively low volume.
Today STN dropped down to it's lowest point of the year again on very low volume and during a period when markets in general are fairly positive.
It's been a steady performer since mid 2012. Anything new that could account for the weakness thus far this year?
thanks for all you do

Q: Hi Peter:
Re: STN
I have a small position in Stantec intending to increase exposure over time at favorable pricing. I'm puzzled by its daily gyrations. One day up 2-3% the next down by a similar amount. For a steady-eddie kind of stock these movements strike me as being rather bizarre. Thoughts?
Thank you and kind regards,
Geoff

Q: While I understand that you really like Stantec(STN), the market has been driving the shares down recently. Because your report on Stantec is somewhat dated could you please provide an analysis on the company in terms of earnings per share for the next 1-2 years, revenue growth, share valuation relative to historical trends, etc. What future catalysts do you see as influencing future share prices. Is there potential for the shares to continue downward to the $54 area where they were trading last October. At that price, they would be trading at about 15 times this year's expected earnings. What is a reasonable valuation for the company shares? As a secondary question how often do you anticipate updating company reports? Thanks.
