Q: Canadian Banc Corp is an Investment Corporation
that invests in a diversified portfolio consisting of six
Canadian Banks. Two types of shares are available, a
Class A (BK) and a Preferred (BK.PR.A).

I have had class A shares for a few years and am very pleased. It seems to good great dividend and capital gains . I see the very low liquidity as a big problem. I believe you are not supportive of the structure and the fund.
Would you reduce as it is 6% of holding with no other bank exposure? what other red flags would you look out for.
thanks
Yossi

Q: Can I have your opinion on two high risk stocks (WZR, LYD) that are down quite a bit over the last couple of years. I planned on holding onto them long term, however, lately I am wondering if I should cut my losses and get rid of them. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and team, I have a very high risk tolerance and a very long time horizon. I consider there are huge bargains present in the gold mining sector. My plan is to systematically buy quality names like YRI and G. I expect these companies will revert to their fair values creating very high gains over time provided they won't go out of business. Your evaluation on this contrarian strategy please.

Q: I would like your opinion on the direction of the US dollar as it relates to our precious metals market here in Canada. It seems the dollar will continue to be strong but gold and silver prices cant go much lower than the cost to produce them. Is this the time to nibble away at the the higher torque mid-sized names in the space or wait? Which names do you like for the next 6-12 months?

Q: We currently hold Vale and are down substantially. We are wondering if we should sell Vale (and take the tax loss this year) and buy Altagas and Whitecap with these funds. We are currently about 14% in energy and 34% in financials with the balance over utilities, telecoms and reits. Would appreciate your thoughts on this transaction or a better recommendation.

Q: Hi 5i ,yesterday while giving your thoughts on CZN you mentioned that the cash on hand was being used at a fairly brisk rate. so my question is how much cash do they have on hand and what has been their burn rate so far in 2014 ? do you know what the burn rate is for the next 12 months.
also with regards to commodities being in the dog house is it possible for some stocks of certain commodities to outperform the markets . for discussion purposes if zinc was to average &1.50 per lb for all of 2015 would this show up in zinc related stocks or all commodity stocks painted with the same brush (red).
are we still in a normal business cycle and do you feel the US recovery is for real ? thanx Norm
