Q: I have been watching Sylogist for quite some time and thought this might be a good entry point. However looking at the chart, it went up for three years straight and then straight down from about 12 to 7 dollars. It has recovered a bit but not much. What is the reason for the rapid drop and would this be a good entry point. Where do you see it a year from now. What other small cap stocks would you recommend in the tech space?

Q: Hello to everyone at 5i

To my way of thinking, the supply and demand fundamentals for seafood merits an investment. Do you like these companies right now? If so, would you have a preference of one over the other or would money invested in each company provide better coverage of the industry and reduce company specific risk?

This investment would represent a small allocation in my TFSA.

Thank you for the service you provide

Q: Have I missed something with this stock? It has been dropping quite a bit. I do not have a position, but am thinking of buying. Also, how are its dividends (distributions) treated by the CRA. Are they considered Canadian, and are they given favourable tax treatment, or is it a U.S. MLP? I have had not had success trying to recover any of the 39.6% holdback with another US MLP.

Thanks for your help, and top notch service!

Q: I am looking to invest in fixed income for my RRSP. What do you think of Dorel Convertible Debenture? I can get a yield in excess of 5.5% for a bond maturing in less than 5 years.

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
I'm hanging on to FSV for a while longer until I decide what to do (keep FSV, keep CIG, keep both, sell both. A cursory comparison between the 2 divisions indicate that Colliers was more profitable in 2014 with EBITDA to Revenue ratio of 9.8% vs 7.5% for FSV; a hardly sufficient basis of comparison.
What intrigues me is your rational for shedding the old FSV a couple of months ago.
You're suggesting to hang on for a while longer; but how will one decide what to do next?
Thanks,
Antoine

Q: Would you consider TMA a hold at this time, or do you see a switch opportunity to something else? 4.5% yield, but I'm down 15% in a RIF.
