Q: Hello Peter, Ryan and 5i staff, I have had a good year with help from 5i. I usually top up charitable donations around this time of year. Would you consider listing your favorite charities? Or perhaps even doing a blog post? I suspect after Peter's ride this summer he would have some supporting children's cancer treatment. My personal favorite charity is Sleeping Children Around the World (scaw). I like this one because 100% of the donation goes to a needy child. Publish if you wish. Thanks as always, Frank

Q: Would you be inclined to buy any or all of these three at these levels? If not could you recommend 3 or 4 quality stocks that are seriously oversold in your opinion Thanx Robbie
Q: Hello,
I have some Northland Power NPI which you had been positive on, though a few days ago you suggested a switch to AQN. Has your positive feeling changed? Should I consider buying more since it is down now? Why the drop when other utilities seem okay?
Thanks very much

Q: Peter and Team,
This is sort of a follow up to a question I had yesterday regarding finding shorter term or floating rate bond instruments in which to invest. Ideally, I'd get a product that didn't get creamed by rising rates and paid me a good yield.
What are your thoughts on O'Leary's Floating Rate Income Fund OFR.UN?
Thanks,
Marc

Q: Peter.
Prior to subscribing to 5i I got this recommendation and or suggestion from BNN. It did not take long for me to go underwater for some reason. What ever MER there is on this, is all on top of my losses. Is there anything good about this holding, should I keep them for the long term. My age is becoming a factor now. It is starting to look that some of these suggestions and recommendations go short after a bit. Is this all my imaginations or is there something to it?

Q: Could you please give me your opinion on Elkwater, the strength of its balance sheet and its ability to grow production profitably with low energy prices. Do you have knowledge of where their properties are located and what price of oil would be necessary to keep the production going.
My current sector allocation is 9%. Do you think it is a good one to take a flyer on? The share price has gone down quite a bit and don't they have cash more than the company's current valuation? I would very much appreciate your thoughts.

Q: Do you reckon that AGF.B actions will help its share price in the long-term i.e.dividend cut from $0.27 to $0.08 for 2015 plus the Company intends to file to renew its share buyback program when the current program expires in February 2015.
I have been holding it for its dividend but now I am wondering whether I should bail out.
Price even lower today, after dividend cut announcement.

Q: Holy crow, MCR is going lower than I ever thought it would... so far,$1.65 today with no bottom in sight. I certainly feel foolish purchasing it at $6.30 last year. Have I missed some news? Is it time to get whatever nickels I can get from it now?

Q: Hi Peter
What are your thoughts on the recent swoon in the price of CP which I hold at a loss in a registered account? Is it all oil related or is something else going on? What are your thoughts on the valuation now and how would you compare it with CNR which has not declined to the same extent?
Thanks so much for helping us through these confusing markets!
