Q: Hi Peter,
Any idea why High Liner and Shawcor are still dropping while others have recovered. Both went up after the sell off, but are now dropping again. Fundamentals appear to be good on both so am a bit puzzled. I am thinking of entering Starbucks. I have done very well on the stock and sold it when it hit the 80s. It has been sitting in the low 70s but the PE is very high. The technicals look okay. Your view is greatly appreciated.

Q: I have some money set aside and would like to take advantage of the pullback and buy 2 industrial stocks and 2 consumer stocks. I already own BGI.UN and DH, and the rest of my portfolio is well balanced in other sectors. I am looking at a long term hold with a view of overall return combining growth and div.
I'm looking at the following stocks in Consumer: SJR.B, BCE, T, PJC.A and ATB.B
And the following in Industrial: WTE, CAE, CNR, MG and AC.B
Could you suggest 2 in each sector (or suggest another stock that may be preferable to my choices) and let me know the basics of the choice?
Thanks so much, Kim

Q: Hi
Acq had a significant drop (8.2%) today.
Any reason you know of?
Would you recommend it as a buy at the closing price today of $49.90?
Thanks

Q: I'm short on consumer staples. Does ECI fit? I told myself I wouldn't buy anything you ranked lower than B+, but I am a dividend investor and retired.
To whoever asked; yes, I supported Peter. another great thing about 5i
Donating stocks to charity, aside from the direct benefits to me and the charity, seems like a sensible way to rebalance, given that I'd be making the donation anyway.
Your overblown corrections post is excellent. Thank you!

Q: Hi,

Due to the recent capitulation in small cap stocks, I am concerned about DEE and QST which have been cut in half. My average price on DEE is 4.25 and that on QST is 4.35. Unfortunately, I have more than the required portfolio weight in these two stocks and I am not able to double up because of the already high weighting. What do you suggest and what impact woould the next one or two years have on these two stocks.

Q: Hello Peter
I an quite concerned that Ebola will sweep around much of the world eventually no matter how hard we fight it and that being the case Ebola may be a disaster for life insurance companies having to prematurely pay out on life policies. Should we sell our Sun Life SLF and Great West GWO [currently almost a break-even for us if we do]?
Thanks....... Paul K
