Q: I bought Cineplex for growth and have made a very nice gain on it. I wonder with it at over $50.00 if there is much more growth left in the short term and it might be time to sell for a better growth stock.
Thank you.

Q: This is a follow up question from Kristine's question on SDIV.US on October 21, 2015. Global X SDIV vs. DIV seems to be a Global vs. US equities ETF comparison, but can you recommend any comparable, better options to consider? (taking into account comparable monthly yields). Also looking to hold this in a $USD account, not concerned about tax implications for this comparison - just looking for fund recommendations only. Thx!

Q: Hello everyone. This has been a painful investment for me. I believe in the turnaround in this name so I have increased my position. One has to look back to DEC 2008 to find the stock price down at these levels. Yes things are different but when I add up the some of the parts if someone was to strip it down and sell off it seems to be at a discount. Could I have your view on what you see the dollar per share for the some of the parts/cash and also the dividend going forward. Thank you again for your assessment. Jay

Q: You can still place an expression of interest for Hydro One shares at Virtual Brokers. iTRADE had their books open for almost a week: to me this indicates demand is not high and shares are unlikely to lift on the first day of trading unless shares are priced at the low end of the range. Publish if you think this is instructive.
