Q: Would like to know your thoughts on Liq. Is the dividend at risk and can you explain the constant decline in value. I would like to enter a small position for the div. interest. Thanks you.
Q: Hi 5i Research team,
About SIS analysis, qualitative (small-cap, key person risks) had the lowest grade on your report card. What would have been the overall rating without that characteristic? What would you like to see improve in order to increase your comfort level with SIS? Or is it pretty much as good as it gets for this size of company?
Have you meet management / what is your opinion of management? What could be the next catalysts to bring SIS to the next level? Based on cash on hand and the way the company is managed (focus on organic growth and small tuck-in acquistion), I do not expect many or large equity issues: therefore little interest from the broker/analysts community. Am I right?
Thank you for your collaboration, Eric

Q: How serious is the risk of competition from financial technology companies? If competition becomes a threat, would banks like bns not just buy the fintech companies? I would appreciate your thoughts.
Q: I appreciated Ryan's take on stocks that can benefit on the low Canadian dollar in your recent blog. Of the ones mentionned, I was wondering which would be the best buy at the moment, not considering the rest of one's asset distribution? I notice, for instance, that Blackcome has gone up quite a bit over the past year, while the others have fallen. I like the idea of something as solid as railway ties. I guess they will always be needed. But, maybe one of the others is a better buy at the moment.
As i say, asset mix is not a consideration at the moment. Also, in profiting from the American dividends, is it possible to get the dividends in US dollars straight out, or do the brokerages all convert them to Canadian?
thanks

Q: In a LIF portfolio that I manage for my 65 year old wife I have sold BIN and now have funds to re-invest. I could add to existing positions or start a new sock. This portfolio has an emphasis on income. To help guide me could you tell me what 4 or 5 stocks you would recommend at this time?
Q: Can I have your thoughts on Enbridge after their recent earnings announcement. The fact that their dividend increases may be less than announced in 2014 causes some concern. I am interested in this security as a long term hold. Thank You.
Q: I was notified this a.m. that ENB reported 2015 FY results. Your thoughts?
Thanks

Q: Exco closed at $14.69 today,Feb. 18, after its announcement of taking over a US company for 83M several days ago.Is it a buy or would I be chasing it at its current price? Thanks as always for saving me from myself on many occasions.
Q: In your reply to Tim, you stated that CSU is actually cheaper on a valuation basis than it has been for some time. I missed it when it was down to $438.00 but today it is about $520.00 a jump of about $82.00 in 10 days. At $520.00 is it still good value?
Q: Hi Peter. Is this a good time to add to my position in Enghouse (ESL). It was soaring a few months ago but has since fallen. Is there a reason for this. All news seems to be good.
Thanks.

Q: I am looking at purchasing more BIN for what I see as diversification in a long term (10 years or more) portfolio. With the recent purchase by a large US company it appears even more attractive to me. However you action in removing it from a model portfolio has caused me to pause in my decision. I would appreciate it if you would provide your rationale for removing BIN. Thank you.
Q: Hi Peter,
So frustrated with this stock. I have held it for years. You seem
to like it very much. reports more and more positive things happening. And after a big downturn and good earnings and a good couple days in the market. Down we are! Watching volume the last couple days. Huge. Are we being held down so some one can buy in cheap?
Thanks as always.
