Q: Could you explain why Fission (FCU) has dropped off so much in the last month.
Volume is up the last week? But the only news I see appears to be good news.
Thanks

Q: LTS.us appears to be defying the mkt, and is steadily moving up. What is your assessment? And should I wait to buy? As a financial service company, though small in size, it may have found a niche that will propel it forward.

Q: I have been a VV subscriber for many years. The timing models are useful to indicate the where things are going but I do not buy or sell any more just solely on the indicators. I don't think that VV would recommend that either. The strength of VV is the Unisearch. I use it to identify when to buy stocks and it is very useful. I have built my own screening models within VV and it has helped me to find stocks that are about to turn. The most important point is that you cannot rely on only one service. I subscribe to 6 pay services including 5i as well as numerous free services. I also watch BNN and CNBC.

Q: Iona Energy (V.INA) has taken a large hit today on some bad news on the Huntington Field. The CATS shut down had been anticipated, although now for a longer period of time, but I imagine that the market does not like the talk of the Noreco write down on Huntington. I was hanging to my shares for a possible recovery due to the positive cash flow and the change of management earlier this year. Is that still a prudent course of action or should I sell into the next bounce and put those funds to work somewhere else?

Q: This is a follow up question on Blackstone. Is it true that some private equity clients are trying to do deals themselves, reducing the need for services provided by companies like BX. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter,

I've had a friend (new investor) ask me to suggest a few books to help him learn about investing and the markets. I've seen similar questions asked on here before, but can't seem to find them. Can you repost a previous answer?

Thanks for all you do,
Mike

Q: Further to the general talk of a market correction, would it be prudent to sell the ETF positions in the Income Portfolio and hold cash for a few months, to see if a correction takes hold?

Q: Hi 5i,

I was excited to see the new report on WSP but then got a bit worried when I saw the overall rating. A B- rating is only one above noninvestment grade from your previous comments. I was very surprised especially because in the past you seemed to have put STN and WSP comparable. Was it the recent acquisitions that is the main concern or was there something else that pulled it down?

Thanks!

Q: If/when interest rates rise, should one be getting out of this ETF?

Please forgive the naivety of this question, but I hear analysts blathering on at great length about the need to "get out" of bonds as the economy improves and it leaves me at a loss on how to deal with this in my portfolio.

I realize this is in your Income portfolio for its attractive yield, but was wondering if the forecasted interest rate rise does indeed begin soon, does the thesis of holding this for its yield still remain valid? Would not the falling market price then negate its dividend yield?
