Q: Manulife is down more than the market and SLF. Is there a company specific reason for this? With a yield over 4% would you consider this a good buy for a long term hold.
Q: Hello Peter, I have two losers, CIX and POW in my portfolio. Kept hopping for a recovery but getting tired of waiting. I would appreciate if you can help me to find replacement for them. Is there a chance for them to recover in the next 6-12 months?
Thank you, J.A.P. Burlington
Q: I have not had a 'raise' in a while from RioCan. I have held the stock since 1999. Is it time to part company? It's near an all time high. Can you suggest a REIT which does give good increases every year? A high ROC is nice, but not required.
Q: Hi Peter and Team!! What are your thoughts on FFH. Is it too pricey to acquire a few stocks? Are there any near future risks to holding the stock? Thank you in advance, Tamara
Q: I hold RY and TD volume is 3 times higher today. All other banks volume is higher too. Price has not move up so much. Is everyone selling or buying more.
Q: Hi Peter, Ryan & Co.
One of the money managers on BNN recommended GSBD as a "top pick" today. This company seems to fly under the radar, yet offers a rather attractive 9% yield. I have not been able to find much detail on this company. Can you please comment on the company's payout ratio, sustainability of its dividend, risk profile, etc. I'd like to know if I'm taking on excessive risk in exchange for the juicy yield.
Many thanks,
Brian
Q: With the current movement to reduce mutual fund fees do you think PWF should still be considered a buy or hold? I have held PWF and POW for many years solely as an income play in my RRSP.Their share price appreciation has been less than stellar compared to banks over the last 10 years. Thanks, Joe
Q: In its most recent SEC filing, billionaire Carl Icahn’s Icahn Enterprises LP (NASDAQ: IEP) disclosed a 149 percent net short position in U.S. stocks. IEP has been declining since this position was taken yet in the last few days the market and the circumstances surrounding the market have been negative. I would anticipate that IEP should rise against this situation based on its rather substantial net short position but this doesn't seem to be the case. Do you see any reason why the shares of IEP are reacting in this manner?
Q: Except for Peter, all of the analysts commenting on about HCG on BNN in the last few months are negative on this stock. What are they missing?

Q: Hello Team, this stock was recommended in the paper as a good income stock paying a monthly dividend. Could I have your analysis on the company. Thank you, Jen
Q: EQB has been doing well recently although I've held it for awhile and it just went above my purchase price. It is 19% of my TFSA but tiny in my overall portfolio. Should I continue to hold or sell?
