Q: Hi 5i team,
I am wondering whether to cut losses on BDI, it seems in a freefall for the past 6 months. The stock is down over 30% from its high point in May and continues its decline today despite overall market direction. Yesterday, I received notification from BMO that 5 brokerages either downgraded or cut prices on BDI... I know you were positive on BDI in the past, what are your current thoughts on this stock. Are fundamentals still solid? Do you anticipate it to recover from current lows within one year timeframe? Thanks.

Q: Since you have downgraded this stock by 2 notches would you now say that it is a sell rating? I currently owned this stock in my RRSP and wonder if I should sell and replace with another stock?
Thanks

Q: Could you share your thoughts on the recent 8% drop suffered by Exco? I don't see anything news related, can this simply be attributed to the tough market on Oct. 1st? Thanks.

Q: There has been a pretty good sell off already in growth stocks like BYD, BAD, and ACQ along with oil/gas names. Can you recommend 3-5 companies that look like the best value bet for a bounce back and recovery? Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,

I was excited to see the new report on WSP but then got a bit worried when I saw the overall rating. A B- rating is only one above noninvestment grade from your previous comments. I was very surprised especially because in the past you seemed to have put STN and WSP comparable. Was it the recent acquisitions that is the main concern or was there something else that pulled it down?

Thanks!

Q: Hi team
Shareholders voted by 70 percent to approve the two share classifications as of Oct 6 There will be DHX.A for Variable Voting Shares (original shares owned by non-Canadians) and DHX.B for Common Voting shares ( original shares owned by Canadians) I am Canadian so my shares will be converted to DHX.B
What impact do you think this will have on the market price and volume of DHX.B shares?
Since their stated intent is to attract foreign investors who obviously can only buy DHX.A . How can this possibly be good for my share value? or am I missing something?
Thanks
Kathy
