Q: I'm currently holding Loblaws. It represents about 5% of my portfolio. If was just purchased a few months ago. I'm a long term investor. Do you think it's worth holding for 5 years plus. If not can you recommend another in this sector. I think this is a great site and love the job the staff at I5Reseach are doing. I read this site daily.

Q: I am interested in any comments that you might have on ZDV -BMO Canadian Dividend ETF. My interest is mainly for solid and growing income. This ETF has a higher dividend than some similar ETFs. Reading the questions and your responses is indeed a great education. Thank you. Len

Q: You answered a question from Ralph about using HFR as a "safe place to park excess cash sitting in a discount brokerage RRSP, perhaps for a few months, while waiting to invest it in the market". Outside an RSP I have used HFP to park cash. It yields 3.25%, receives benefits of dividend tax credit. It is not a big trader so there is a bit of a bid/ask spread, but I have found if I am able to wait a day or two I have always been able to get for equal to or better than my buy price. Any caveats?

Q: DCI

I would like to thank everyone who panicked and sold DCI in the last couple of days because Mr Hodgins enticed them to do so. I bought several shares at 15.55 yesterday and I think at that price Mr H is covering his self-serving call. I will hold through earnings and see. Isn't DCI trading at 4x CF well below it's historical average of 6-7x???

Q: Good evening gentlemen. EIF (Exchange Income) reported today and had 47% increased revenue from Westower but 52% reduction in EBITDA due to higher costs. Their outlook appears to be positive. What do you think of their prospects? I also note there was a minor price rally beginning a couple of hours before the earnings were released which is reminiscent of the selling that occurred for days before last quarter's disappointing report. Maybe that means insiders are feeling better about this quarter?
