Q: Hello Peter,
I have small amount of cash left in my TFSA. My current stock holdings are FFH, GIB.A, GUD, SJ, and DEE (less than 1 percent). I would like to deploy it with the hope of a good pop in one of the three stocks 2-5 year timeframe. Which one would make the most sense (HBC, GS or POT)? Much appreciated. Thank you in advance for this reply and other detailed explanations you have provided in the past.

Q: Hello:
What is your opinion about this company (Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corp. Class C
NYSE: AGM), considering the financials as a long term hold? I was considering the COW etf but the MER and some of the companies owned within COW are not to my liking..Would this be a good option for the agriculture sector (although it is really financials) in the longterm.. Thanks. Regards, Shyam

Q: What do you think the ramifications are for Hydro One if the Ontario government stopped the privatization? Less shares flooding the market would seem to be beneficial, but would they be able to grow earnings sufficiently if they stayed public?

Q: The BCE bid is at $40/share, but MBT is trading around $38 this morning. Is this as obvious as it looks for a quick buck? What are the risks involved and the chances the BCE bid does not go through? Do you see any potential for a higher bid, and who are the potential bidders?

Thank-you
