Q: I was wondering what your thoughts are on entering BDI for a ~5 year term. How is it's dept and valuation? Also you published a report in 15jan2015, Will you be publishing an updated report soon?
Q: What is the reason for this stock to be on a continuous downward spiral. What will make this stock go back to the highs of 24 or higher where I unfortunately bought it. Also can you comment on PNT (CPI Card group) as they have released at least one quarter of their results. Thanks
Q: Hi, I have owned this stock for a long time and I highly respect Marc Leonard's disciplined approach to growing Constellation to a CAD$ 11 billion company over years. However, since late 2015 and more recently in past few weeks, stock appears to show signs of exhaustion. After reaching a high of $595, a few times in 2015, stock price seems to be range bound between $495 and $525, with a day time low of $485 during January 18 market sell off. I do not wish to reduce/sell my position, but trying to figure out why this stock has been a laggard, recently. Even on the days of market rallies, while many good stocks (several from portfolios) have shown strong bounce back, price action of CSU has been only lukewarm, at best. Do you believe market is grossly underestimating its potential and stock is very underpriced at current levels? what is the short interest in the stock ? Any other comments will be most appreciated.

Q: My question is about valuation. The stock is down about 40% from its highs adjusted for exchange which seems mostly due to poor results in the last quarter. The company is in multiple real estate type businesses, there's a lot of moving parts and non-producing development properties and, while the story seems attractive, I wonder how, with all the stuff going on with this company, you go about estimating future performance well enough to get to a valuation and rating.
Q: I have a decent holding in this co. and read your recent comments on Stella-Jones. There appears to be no logical explanation to sharp drop in stock price from a high of $54 to a low of $41.50 within a span of 4 weeks. Even on market up days, stock's advance is fairly muted. I feel that 20% decline could not be entirely market related. My suspicion is that market is punishing the stock due its association with railways. What percentage of its business is from railway ties? Utility polls business should be stable ? Is there a large short interest ? How is its valuation on current and forward basis? Do you believe it's an excellent time to add at current levels? Thanks
Q: Back in August, you mentioned that there is likely an opportunity cost in owning Badger. Given more recent results, with a greater move to the US and management delivering on everything they said they would, do you still believe this to be the case?
In an otherwise diversified portfolio, I currently have about 8% in industrials (WSP, NFI), and am looking for a third company to boost the allocation, with a mix of some dividend and growth. Do you think BAD would be a reasonable addition? I have also been considering MDA.
Q: In your Balanced Portfolio you have a holding in Goldcorp because you want to have a stake in gold for strategic reasons. Recently, in answering questions on investing in gold stocks, you have consistently referred to AEM as a better investment than G. Why are you not swapping G for AEM in your balanced Portfolio?
Q: Hi Peter n team,
Is now a good entry point for this stock? I notice the p/e is high. Is the dividend safe?
Is ithis appropriate in my tfsa account? Do you have a couple names that are better for renewable energy? Time frame is 5 years. Thanks as always. Rossana
Q: I am a long time holder of both Goldcorp and Yamana, both of which have been decimated and are now much smaller positions within my portfolio. Today you removed G from the model portfolio and replaced it with AEM. If I wanted to purchase AEM to replace some (or all) of my current gold holdings, would you recommend that I sell Goldcorp, Yamana, or both to pick up an equal weighting of AEM?
Q: Hi Peter & Team: referring to questions from other members, if I donate CSE shares would it be complicated? Or the receiving charity can tender the shares when the time comes to do it (by the way I use Link Charity and they charge me less as I am a CMS subscriber) ?
Q: I regards to your comments on aw strategy to use only beef raised with out steroids hormone is true however as a retired beef producer I don't believe you can buy beef to day, with steroids and hormone enhancement . I believe that left the industry years ago and the growth enhancement been replaced with genetics .there are calves being born today that have a 4 plus pound a day rate of gain far exeding any artificial enhancement .
I would invest in aw for the financials but to get wrapped up in adds I wonder if that is the right course
I may be selling my Costco and am a bit low in Industrials. So with the US money to deploy, what is your take on BIN.US?
Thank you for helping most of us keep our course. "KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON" to all.
Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Everyone seems to feel the sale will go through. As a share holder if I do nothing will I receive $4.90 per share credit to my account at closing and the shares disappear? Between now and then will the current price tend to drift up towards the $4.90 sale price? The exdividend date was 12/29/15 with the payday being 1/29/16. If I were to sell now...before 1/29/16 do I forfeit the dividend?
Thanks for your great assistance!

Q: Mr. Market seems to like the deal. When Waste Connections redomiciles to Canada will this stock have a TSX listing as well? I want a Canadian listed stock with US exposure. Thx again for all your help.
Wondering if you have any explanation why on a day like this with gold stock up (Barrick up 6% today) that Goldcorp is down. Lately it does not seem to move with other gold stocks. Are there some underlying issues?
Q: What is your recommendation with CSE shares? Is it best to just to wait for the sale to go through? Or if it gets close to the $4.80 mark would you just sell the shares. Currently it is trading 5% below the offer price, and overall it looks like stable deal.
