Q: I have noticed alcoa (aa) and a french company has been testing and promoting an electric car battery that extends a vehicle range up to 1800 kms. There has been some talk of creating a plant in Quebec. I have looked into the technology and it seems they do have something that has the potential to be enormous and could propel electric vehicles into main stream. I understand Ford is involved also. Do you have any opinion on this new battery and alcoa and if this is a good entry point? Thank you Dave T.

Q: XTR - I noticed one of your responses concerning this fund in which you state, among other things, "a diversified income fund like XTR are similar but you will pay more in fees as all of your allocation will be exposed to the fee vs a portion of the model"

However, I am not sure this is correct - the prospectus relating to the fund fees indicates "the management fees will be adjusted to reflect the fees paid on the underlying funds held in the fund to ensure the total fees paid will not exceed the indicated management fee"

Q: Hi Peter: The TSX and others offer subscribers what is called a level 2 view of what order volumes are for a given stock both on the buy side and the sell side at specific prices. My question is if someone was to place a stop loss order does this show up on the level 2 feature. If someone was to be able to see stop loss orders on such a service they could manipulate the stock price lower then snap up the stop loss stocks at market prices. Is this a possibility?

Regards
Derek

Q: Regarding Dollarama (DOL). I generally like to let my winners run, especially if they are still trading at attractive valuations and I have had a good run with Dollarama however its now trading at 22x 2015 earnings estimates and 19x next fiscal year's earnings estimates.

Do you think its being too cute selling on any additional move up hoping for a pullback close to the $90 level?

I figure yesterday's move in the share price had everything to do with Icahn taking a position in Family Dollar and a bit of last weeks, move was based on the report that Dollarama would make a good fit for one of the dollar stores in the States.

Q: After a nice run up I am thinking of replacing Painted Pony (PPY)in one of my accounts with a strong long term grower and dividend payer. I will still keep it in one of my other accounts. Could you please provide your opinion on Whitecap, Altagas, Peyto, and ??? as a replacement.
I want to mention that your continued advice to others, which I interpret as doing less trading, has been very valuable to me.Thank you.
