Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Regarding 5i's May 8 assessment of Trimac's Q1 earnings, the company at its website http://www.trimac.com/page/InvestorRelations
has very different and much worse numbers which would explain the stock's 12% tumble since pre-release.
Would you like to restate your outlook for this stock based on the different numbers and would it still be a top pick as it was on BNN last October? Thanks, J.

Q: just a final point to the CSU debentures. One must be aware the link to inflation is NOT the inflation rate at year end BUT the percent change in inflation rate
It is reset each March 31 at a rate equal to the annual percent change in the All-items consumer price index during the 12 month period end Dec 31 in the prior year. WHICH may be negative or positive plus 6.5%
The rate will not be less then 0%
This is the link to inflation IE the % change plus 6.5% NOT the inflation rate plus 6.5%

Q: A slight correction to your response to Noel re the CSU RTS. The exercise price will be $115 per 100 of principal as indicated below. Perhaps you can expand your response to include something on the merits of the offering at the published price of $115.

"The Rights will be exercisable until 4:30 p.m. (Toronto time) (the "Expiry Time") on September 15, 2015 (the "Expiry Date") at a price of C$115 per C$100 principal amount of Debentures purchased."

Many thanks. Bob

Q: Hi there guys. I need you to elaborate further on your reply to Michael regarding CSU.RT.A. I have 150 CSU shares so I received 150 RT.A units. I have lots of stock experience but none when it comes to rights. Please explain what I have the opportunity to buy, how much I would be paying, the rate of return on what I am buying etc. Is it a bond I would be getting? Can I buy more than the 150 RT.A units permit? How would I exercise these things? Why has the value of RT.A dropped by half since they were issued? Can you tell I'm pretty clueless on this stuff? No need to respond to that last question.

Q: I first bought csu on your advice below $200. ( thank you) your report is now dated quoting a lower price and a much lower PE than is now the case. There is now only 1 buy and 6 hold/sells and a PE well over the comfort zone according to Thompson Reuters. Will you be updating your report soon? Should I consider selling some?
Also, should I excercise the rights, and/or should i consider buying more rights?

Q: Hello,

How low can WIN go? Is there any price support based on fundamentals?
Considering the yield would you advice on double down to park some money for at least 1 year? Is XSR better for this purpose?

Thanks

Q: How do you rate EQI in the current environment. The Globe is full of negativity about the debt load that the average Canadian has and this does not seem to be hurting the the mortgage stocks too much. Home Capital is sliding a little, but EQI trades so few shares it is hard for me to get any sense of strength or not in the stock.
