Q: Hi. I hold Lloyds Bank via the ADR (LYG US). The government seems to be considering a sale of all or part of their shares to institutional investors shortly. Do you think they will sell the shares below what they are trading at today, or at the previous sale price.
Thanks for your thoughts on this

Q: Hi Peter,
I purchased FSZ in November 2013, and am down close to 16%. What is causing this decline and do you expect it to continue? Do you still feel comfortable with your B+ rating? How risky do you consider the stock?
I saw from a recent question you don't consider it a "sell" at this level. Do you consider this a good time to add to a small position?
Thanks for everything. I'd be lost without your guidance!

Q: fsz
Hi- Fiera recently announced June assets under management, but did not include a comparison to May or previous months. I can't find more info on the Fiera site or archived news. Are the assets under mnanagement increasing or decreasing? Is that why Fsz is going down? I wanted to add to my small position.
Thanks

Q: re:TD + ("Canada's" 6 biggest banks)

catching up a little late on my reading... have a 10% position in TD. Read an article which said...

"""Canada’s six biggest banks - Toronto-Dominion Bank (NYSE:TD), Royal Bank of Canada (NYSE:RY), Bank of Nova Scotia (NYSE:BNS), Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (NYSE:CM), Bank of Montreal (NYSE:BMO) and National Bank of Canada (OTCPK:NTIOF) - had their outlooks cut to negative from stable by Standard & Poor’s because of regulatory changes that could affect bondholders."""

the comment continued with

"""S&P says the outlook revision reflects its "expectation of reduced potential for extraordinary government support arising from implementation of the proposed new elements of the resolution framework for Canadian banks.""""

I am up 12% and have very minimal understanding about what this exactly says.... what is your recommendation please?

Thank you for all you do

Gord

Q: Hi I just subscribed so I hope I am not doing something wrong. I searched for AGF.B on TSX. The search did not return any result. Hence my Question. (If AGF.B has already been covered, my apologies)
-----------------
Question: I bought AGF.F around C$15 and the [mis]management of this firm has me very puzzled. Asset managers have been doing rather well in the most recent years to date.

Is this stock worth keeping? Has good yield but is this company a lost cause ? Or do you think they controlling family will have the guts to hire a few more outsiders and right the sorry ship?

Thank you
