Q: Hi Peter & 5i: Richards Packaging (RPI.UN) has moved higher since your last Report on it and your last Q&A comment as well. It was a C-plus stock for you to start with. Is it getting too expensive to buy now, at 52-wk highs, all things considered, or are underlying fundamentals improving to support the recent move? Thanks.

Q: I was wondering what your opinion is on Pengrowth Energy and Parallel Energy Trust. I own 1051 shares of PLT.UN and enrolled in the DRIP. It is 7.05 % of my RRSP account. I own 1061 shares of PGF in my RRSP and enrolled in th DRIP. It is 10.72 % of my RRSP. I am underwater on both stocks. I always think about selling them but never do. What do you rate this two stocks, Buy, Sell or hold?? If I sold them would CPG be a good option? Thanks

Q: Trinidad Drilling TDG is currently off by 5.11%, apparently in response to Raymond James downgrading from outperform to strong buy, while raising the target to $11.75 from $11.25. Can or should a brokerage cause such a strong negative reaction in the market, or is there something else going on? Add more at this time??

Q: Hi Peter/5i Team,
Finally sold my CPG and wish to replace it with VET. Do you think that 1/2 position now at $56.77 and another 1/2 position later (hopefully during a pullback) is a good strategy? My wife has TOU in her RRSP (Thank you!) but I don't have any other O/G in mine at the present. Thanks in advance and enjoy Europe.

Q: Hi Peter and the 5I team

I am curious about your thoughts on the recent events at DND. Is this a case of corporate bullying on Watson Pharma's case where they plan to wear DND down with their legal department? To me it seems to be a cut and dry case....DND has the rights to Absorica till 2015. What is up Watson's sleeve? What do you think?

Q: Thanks Peter and group for the valuable information you provide. What are your thoughts on Strategic Oil & Gas (SOG)? I own a position from earlier this year when the share price was 20% higher. It has since been on a gradual decline, and I am thinking of taking a loss and move on. Is there any reason to think that it might recover anytime soon?

Q: Hi
What do you think of Wellpoint for a buy right now. The only US stock I have right now is Emerson (EMR). Would a US healthcare ETF be better way to go? If so what would it be? Thanks

Q: Hello team - I am an investor of quality stocks that will (hopefully) grow their dividends annually. I am looking to add a few Canadian names to my taxable account. I currently own banks, TRP, ALA, BCE, PWF, SAP, BAD, and CNR. Which of the following do you see as having the brightest future for consistent dividend increases: CGX, SNC, CTY, KBL, CSU, THI, TRI, or other (??).

Thanks very much.
