Q: Good Day, Curious as to your current view of FSZ. I have held it for awhile based on your recomendation. Is it still a hold? What other names would you suggest for long term growth/income? Thanks

Q: Peter, can you explain why inflation is so important? What happens if the central bank cannot reach their inflation target? Sorry if this is such a basic question to ask. Thanks in advance.

Q: Hi. I have owned this stock for many years. Did quite well with it at first and sold off enough to cover my initial investment. I still hold 500 shares and could use the money that selling them would generate to buy stocks in other sectors that I am lacking. (I seem to be over invested in the healthcare sector). My question is .... should I just sell it now and use the cash to re-balance, or wait to see what happens with the pullout from the US.

Q: Just looking at the Financial Post article of January 25, 2015 on this company-they just paid off the remaining debt and are in a free cash flow situation. I would suspect that if gold finally makes and upward move, this company would move very well with it. What do you think?

Q: Have you heard of Ardmore Shipping. They claim that oil volatility is great for their business. Oil traders are supposedly storing oil in ocean tankers in hopes of selling it at a higher price later. This is putting pressure on availability of tankers and thus prices are going up. Would you consider this stock a buy?

Q: Hello, my question is about Westernone. I hold this company in a LIF account and am thinking of transferring it at the current low valuation to avoid paying higher taxes later in the event it recovers (hopefully). I planned to withdraw from this account later in the year anyway. What do you think of the idea and if the idea is sound should it be transferred into a cash account or my TFSA.
Thanks so much for the guidance.
Brian

Q: For dividend income with some growth, which of these two, ALA, AFN, would you prefer, and why? Also, I note that in your growth portfolio you list WCP, Whitecap as having 0 dividend. I checked with TMX stock quotes and they indicate that it has about 6% dividend.

Q: I follow and am invested in the Cdn Moneysaver ETF portfolio. I just read the February update in the magazine on this portfolio and wondered why you did not top up XEG back to the 10,000 level of the original investment and possibly sell some that had gone up like XIU and SPY. Wouldn't it be good to top up on XEG now that is down? Thanks for all your help.
