Q: Bearing in mind your earlier view that a small position in DCI is acceptable for income, my 1,700 shares have climbed 20% since early November, a very good return.
Should I sell and realize the gain or hang in there for the 8% dividend and potentially even higher gains?

Q: Hello Peter and team, all the best of the seasdon to you and thanks for all of your sage responses this past year!!
Chorus has been out of the news lately after their successful bout with AC. They pay a nice dividend and have a fair chunk of change on the books I understand. Do you think a special dividend is on the horizon and what is your overall view of the company, especially with dropping fuel prices.
Thank you
Jerry

Q: Do you have any thoughts on the fertilizer sector or Agrium in particular. It occurs to me that with the price of diesel going down, farmers will have more money to spend on inputs such as fertilizer.
Q: How do you feel of the Vsn-KKr-Encana deal especially with regards to VSN
Q: Hi Peter & 5i: Can you please give me your current assessment of Calian? I do not own it now but I have in the past. They seem to fly under the radar mostly. I know they are a very low volume trader, have a very small float, small market cap, and they have some history of share buybacks. I also know that they are substantially dependent on government contracts. With the shares under $18 and the dividend over 6% again, I am thinking about buying a small position but I am wondering if there is anything of particular concern on their horizon, apart from their 'regular concerns' that is. Thanks very much and the Best of the Season to all at 5i!

Q: Hi Peter and Co.
May I have your opinion on this bond...TRANSALTA MTN 6.4% 18NV19? The bond is presently trading at $110.36*, and I do have a nice capital gain. I have no problem holding the bond (in my RSP) until maturity, but am concerned about the safety of the bond considering the price decline in TA's stock price. Your thoughts are appreciated.
Merry Christmas to the staff at 5iResearch.

Q: Hi guys,
I have 2 separate questions, but I thought it would be simpler to submit them both together.
1 - Given the recent bounce in energy stocks, do you believe we've put in a bottom in oil and the energy shares or do you think its just a bounce to be followed by renewed selling pressure. Despite the strong performance in shares like CPG and VET, RSI indicators still show that these stocks are not close to overbought yet.
2 - I have no fixed income exposure. I'm fairly young at 36 years old, but I want to increase exposure to fixed income over the next few years as interest rates, potentially, start to rise. What type of fixed income products, do you prefer? Corporate debt, rate reset preferreds, GICs (if rates get high enough) and should I stagger these purchases after central banks start raising rates or wait a bit after the first rate hike and then purchase.
Thanks for your help and happy holidays!
Jason

Q: I own vsn, vsn.pr.a and vsn.pr.c.
Today Scott Barlow in the Globe and Mail has singled out Veresen one of the companies that could be vulnerable because of their high debt level. Do you share his views? Are the dividends safe for both VSN and the preferreds? Do you recommend holding these shares?

Q: Peter and Co.
For a while you favoured Boston Pizza but now you favour A&W. To me they appear to be similar except in size. I have been considering BPF but seeing a local BP close has me wondering if there is something going on that is below my radar. Can you please explain why you now seem to favour A&W and is BPF OK? Thanks in advance and I wish you all and the other members a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
