Q: Re: IBG: its peak this decade was close to $18 before crashing to .73 last fall, eliminating its dividend along the way and shedding staff. It has since rebounded to $1.35 today. Dead cat bounce or in the early stages of healing after a brutal descent?

Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter,
A few months ago I asked you opinion on EDU which has now been converted to BPE. It seems like the stock is starting to move and I have seen some postings that suggest that a $1.00 stock price is supportable if they are able to meet some milestones in the short term. Seems like the management team is executing.

Do you have any further thoughts on this?

Q: Good morning:
The future sky would be full of drones according to some people
for delivering and for monitoring purposes
I have a small position on both AVO and MDA
I wonder if any companies would benefit from this trend
of drones in the sky ? Thanks

Q: I'm currently holding Crescent Point Energy (CPG) and Whitecap Resources (WCP). Over the past year, I've done well on Whitecap but remained relatively flat with Crescent Point. I'm now considering moving out of one of these two names and into Surge Energy as I feel the shares of SGY represent better growth potential while, at the same time, offering a comparably attractive and secure dividend.
Your thoughts please.

Q: Cal asked about a graph/chart for all the stocks on the TSX with the 200 day MA. I know stockcharts.com quite well and a search came up with nothing. I am not certain just what information such a chart would provide (except for curiosity) that couldn't be gleaned from $TSX with a 200 day MA as it would very closely mimic the total market.

Q: Hello 5i. I hold an equal number of shares of G and OSK. I seem to be in a position of gaining on the swings and losing on the round-abouts. How would you play this? Sell G because, as you suggest, they may have to raise their offer, and their decline will thereby be hastened while OSK can only gain? As always, I look forward to your reply.

Q: Churchill corp, had a rough couple of years, can't see how dividend is sustainable, interest coverage is terrible, but revenues and profits may have bottomed and are turning positive. Based on valuation is this a good time to pick it up? What are your thoughts?

Q: With respect to the Obama care fiasco, it would seem CGI (GIB.A) was not provided with reasonable time to implement and try the system. Of course, CGI could hardly come forward and contradict the US and its president on the matter. This makes for a rather uneasy context, and the reflection on the company's abilities may not be fair. And the alternative to CGI (ACCENTURE) is not exactly impeccable. The dust has not settled yet.
