Q: Although the market has had a good run lately, many companies are simply beating reduced expectations. I saw an analyst on BNN this morning note that top line revenues will be down about 7%. The economy is coasting along and showing no signs of a big jump. My intuition tells me that this may be a good year to "sell in May and go away." Or at least lighten up. Since you rely on more than intuition, I would be interested in your opinion on this.

Q: The week, Great-West declined to exercise their call option on their US$300mm fixed-to-floating hybrid bond securities, thus allowing this bond to not mature for another 30 years. Apparently the bond market was shook up a bit over this move and it was not expected. It is my understanding that it has been generally customary to exercise the call option at this point (10 years in this case), but GWL has broken with this tradition/practice. I have read that the market for these types of bonds is about C$45bln.
Do you think that this could real negative impact on the bond market?

Thanks,
Mike

Q: Having built a cash position I am now looking at re-deploying into the market. S&P500 looks like a technical top but maybe on a long-term perspective it is ok. I own many of your names and would favour just increasing those positions as it would not result in over concentration on a name basis or a sector basis. No Oil & Gas due to long-term structural changes or mining due to too many operational and geopolitical challenges. So with this in mind, your top ten or so picks for long-term growth/income.

Please compare WestJet to the other airline in Canada as well

I have purchased at the bottom (@ about 15.50) and am concerned profit taking may cause a Drop ... noting last 2 days pullbacks

is there any typical seasonality to Canadian airlines?

Thankyou
