Q: Hello Peter & Co,
My exposure to the US Housing market is through Tricon Capital (TCN) and Interfor (IFP) and I'm up on both; however, the latter one is lagging significantly lately and I wonder if I should sell and move on to another Canadian company participating in this sector.
Could you name a couple? What do you think of Hardwoods Distribution (HWD)?
Thanks,
Antoine

Q: HI Peter,
Apologies. This relates to your answer to my previous question. If Bombardier decides to IPO part of the rail business, is it worth buying BBD now to potentially get some shares in the Bombardier rail IPO or is it possible that existing BBD shares holders may not get any shares from the IPO? Any idea. Thanks again.

Q: Hi peter,
Do you have a view as to why Fairfax taking a big dip on a daily basis? Also, do you feel the surge in Bombardier stock is simply speculation (i.e. selling of the rail business for higher price). thanks

Q: Hi Peter and crew
I currently own small positions in BEP as well as Brookfield Properties and was wondering whether or not I should add BAM. Do you think this is a good strategy? Can you suggest an alternative?
Thanks, as always for this great service.

Q: I am looking at three buys over the next while. They are OTC, PHM and DRT. I realize that I am trying to get maximum mileage out of my last question for the year, but I hope this is OK. Would you rank these in order of both which is the best buy and which order you would buy them in. No need to consider my portfolio as a whole but do consider me an aggressive investor with patience. If any of these companies have red flags please mention that also. Thank-you for a great first year!

Q: Hi
I'd like to add US and International Index ETF's to my non-registered portfolio (C$).
Would you recommend currency hedged index ETF's or not?

For Example, RBC offers US Index and US Index Currency Neutral funds. Which would you pick for the long term?

Thanks

Q: In March 2014 I purchased positions in the materials sector and all declined in value. They are G and CS, FM, and P with declines from 40% to 75%. The 4 positions now make up 2% of current portfolio. My gut tells me to sell and utilize losses, as no positive momentum for them in sight, nearer term, and overall weighting is very small. But first i would like your reasoned take/advice.....thanks....tom
