Q: Shopify has gone up a lot in the last quarter. They are reporting results on 15ht Feb. Should I hold through the results as a miss could bring the stock back to $50 or should I sell 50% of the position.
Q: Hi,
I am down 60% on this this one. Very small portion of my portfolio (less than 1%. Just wondering if I should average down or let it be for now. Stock looks pretty cheap on P/E, P/B and P/S. RFC went down with the oil and gas sector because of its large exposure to Alberta. RFC seems to be doing ok. Do you think this is dead money or does it have some potential in the medium term.

Q: With respect to portfolio construction, do you recommend:
a) Weighting each of the 11 sectors equally? (i.e. 9% to each sector).
or
b) Weighting each of the 11 sectors according to their proportion on the index?
If you recommend option b, which index would you use, the TSX or S&P?
Thanks in advance!

Q: I have been a holder of AQN for a fair while and have been very satisfied and even have added to the position on dips. I notice that the "short" position of this stock was increased by 51% as at Jan31/17. I don't usually become concerned by changes in short positons however this increase is considerable. Should I view this as a concern by the so-called better informed?

Q: I took this morning's post-earnings weakness as a chance to purchase Telus, which has been on my "to buy" list for a while. There was a one-time contract issue affecting their profit this past quarter, but they seem on pace with respect to wireless subscriptions, low attrition rates, and dividend increase schedule. I purchased it in my RRSP for a 30+ year hold. Good move?
Q: Following up on earlier question today by Stephane about MFC. I agree with your assessment that results were good. Any explanation why stock is underperforming today? Is there 'new' news that I missed?
Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
DH has been slowly creeping up the last few weeks. Have you heard any new developments on the potential takeover or has the gains come from Trump's plan of deregulation of financial sector?
