Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and 5i Team;
I am curious as to whether or not the ratio between revenue and market cap is actually a useful metric. I present the examples of ALA (Revenue 2.4, Market Cap 5.1), and IPL (Revenue 2.0 Market Cap 9.9)
Q: Can you explain the use of limited partnerships as a tax strategy and can you rate the various companies offering these investments.
Thank you Terry
Q: I have never owned RIM or Blackberry. For years it has had ugly price movements and negative news. Today I quickly read a document from Citron Research which is surprisingly positive. I really like the idea of buying a stock that the "Wall-street shorts" like, since they've proven to be quite effective. It talks about its non-blackberry products and divisions and speculates that they are well-positioned to sell to the auto-industry. It mentions their acquisition of QNX, a microchip and operating systems company located in Ottawa last I checked. Can you read their article and tell us what you think of it?
Q: Always a nice surprise from Brookfield, to find a new stock dividended-out into your portfolio. I see that it's a global (re)insurance company, or looking for global opportunities at least. When BAM dividends out small quantities, prices to tend to drop as they get sold out of portfolios. Assuming that happens in this case, is this a reasonable opportunity to purchase more, to build it into a small position? Is there a projected dividend pay-out that you can see?
Thanks very much...

Q: I have noted in a couple of your recent answers where I thought Shop might be recommended you haven't. I know you expect great things for the company but was wondering if you are thinking a pause or drop is likely after the run up. Thank You
Q: Any additional thoughts on CJ's APA asset purchase? What is the likelihood that they will be in financial position to develop the newly purchased assets over the next 12 months?
Q: I can not figure why CJ is down so much today as they seemed to have completed a fair and accreditive deal with Apache. Could it be Americans bailing on a Canadian asset?
Q: Do you think it's necessary to hold both US and Canadian utilities in a diversified portfolio? I'd like to add to both my non-Canadian position and utilities, so XLU seems like a good way to kill two birds. I currently don't hold any Canadian utility companies.
Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
I have some top up cash available to an account which closely follows the "Income Portfolio". Which companies would be attractive today as potential top up candidates ??? Thank you as always for your sage advice. DL
Q: I am an investor with no employment income. I have cash to deploy in both a Registered and Unregistered account. I am looking at KWH.UN, HOT.UN TD and BNS.
Should the REITs or the banks go into the registered or unregistered account?
