Q: Not a question but a comment to my fellow members. I have noted a number of member remarks as to a shorting suggestion on a recent BNN telecast. I frequently watch these telecasts as well for different views. I would suggest that members go to the guest's fund web sites for performance of their particular fund as a reference point. I find myself that some guests have better advice than others. I do not find that particular recent guest to be in the more reliable camp.

Q: Good day Peter....This is an amendment/update to my earlier e-mail question about rebalancing a RRSP portfolio. In the e-mail I mentioned "income with steady growth, and on further thought, what I really would like/am aiming for is steady growth. For me,the income/dividends is/are really a fall out/come along with the stocks. (This especially true for the pipelines over the last five years. But it is getting through to me/sinking in from reading your posts and responses that a balanced portfolio is a better practice than just pipelines, financials and REITS.) In a way, for a non-registered account, I would prefer growth companies but for a RRSP, I'm inclined to me more conservative and by that I label it as steady growth. Thanks for provoking thinking for all this........Tom M

Q: Hello Peter...This is about an RRSP account that is overweight in financials, pipelines and REITS, with some consumer discretionary. But there are no health care, info tech, and consumer staples. And I read in an earlier post about taking positions in staples which got me thinking about rebalancing to add staples. (For example, is THI considered consumer staples?) Your suggested names/ticker symbols for these 3 sectors are most welcomed for a RRSP that is five years away from being converted to a RRIF that will continue to provide "income and steady growth".
Thanks....Tom M

Q: Not a question, but a comment.

As a member who rarely posts questions I am annoyed with individuals who list their holdings and ask for a portfolio review. The latest being Karen who posted today, listing 38 holdings and asked for a detailed review.

My issues are 1) We are members not clients; and 2) Your site is clear on the scope and nature of the information provided.

I think your response on these questions should be that it is outside of the scope of 5i's service and they should consult a financial advisor.

If individuals want to be treated as clients then spend the money on a financial advisor rather than expecting the 5i members to subsidize their needs.

Q: PEIX
PEIX reported block buster result because of high ethanol prices and low corn prices. Q1 should be even much better as the price advantage is higher. It seem that a few years ago they were a speculative company. It went up 20% after hours, and has risen more than 150% since December.
What is their cash and debt position?
Do you see them as a good investment at current level?
