Q: I am interested in the technology of plasma furnaces and its application in waste management. Do you have any insight into this area? PYR is one company I have uncovered. It appears that Westinghouse plasma corp (Alter NRG Corp) has been taken private by a Chinese company. What do you consider the best way to play this technology?
Q: Hello,
I have all this stocks down.
FM -72%,
G -38%,
GSY -22%,
HCG -30%,
QST -84%,
SGY -63%
TOU -52%
The question is do I sell them (for tax purposes) and hope they will be around the same price in 30 days? buy some replacement now? which ones? or let them go because they are out of favor and move to something else? What do you recommend?
The amount to invest is aprox 200K.
Thank you

Q: Thoughts on recent earnings release.
Q: Hello I am looking to add to my position on Chemtrade to add a good yield stock with potential for some although I recognize not huge growth. My question is would it be more interest rate sensitive than any of the Brookfield companies, and would one of them be a better choice? Thanks as always, Bill
Q: hello 5i:
in a recent question, asked by Justin, about the new Liberal gov't (hmm, interesting, I know his last name can't start with T), re: infrastructure plays, you advised that WSP, STN, SOX, AND BDT would be some companies that would benefit. I can see that, but wouldn't companies like SCL and BAD benefit even more? After all, they will be doing the groundwork where most of the money is spent and have the lowest valuations due to the hits they've taken.
Just wondering
Paul

Q: What is your opinion of Canam? Did they exceed quarterly expectations this week?
Q: With the recent news of the Quebec gov't stepping in to save the day (for a while at least), would Bombardier be worth a shot, at the moment? Probably 1 to 2 %. I'm willing to gamble, but also not crazy. Bombardier has always been the-little-engine-that-could-but-never-did, in my mind. And yet ... how I hate those Canadian companies going down, just because they're stubborn and set in their ways. Will there be enough torque behind the gov't's presence to help move the Bomber's needle? Thanks, as ever.

Q: What is your opinion of the outlook for telus (T) for the next two years?
Q: Your thoughts on earnings and is it still a hold.
Q: HI 5i
Rogers as gone up considerably this year. Is this really deserved or is it just momentum from bluejays. I have considerable gains, bought in around 42 $. I am wondering if I should sell to capture some gains , (lots of losses from energy to balance out tax issues.)
any basic rules of thumb to consider on "when to sell" ?
thanks
Ernie

Q: Interested in your comments on Westshore Terminals (WTE). Seems the projected tonnage is lower because of a drop in thermal coal shipments (one source). They will be compensated for the eliminated shipments. Consequently they reduced the dividend from $1.32 to $1.00 in order to keep the debt at a minimal. Seems like something a well run company would do. Now the market is punishing it. Down 18%. Maybe there’s more curtailment expected?
Q: Your opinion on this company please, especially regarding the sale of their waste mgmt business
Q: Hi,
Does Metro own a chunk of Alimentation or Jean Coutu? If I were to switch from Metro to Loblaw, should I also buy the company (ATD or PJC, depending on which MRU owns) to round out the investment?
Thanks, Heather

Q: I am thinking about investing in 1/3 BIP.UN, 1/3 BPY.UN and 1/3 BEP.UN but I am starting to wonder why I wouldn't just invest in the parent BAM.A if I was to do this. Obviously the dividend of the parent is lower than the three individual spin offs. Do you think that the overall return of BAM.A is the same as the spinoffs generally and is it just an issue of do you want internal share price growth or do you want more as a dividend? Or is the parent somehow inherently slower growing than the spinoffs for some reason? Thx!
Q: My thinking around the recent shorting and possible near in the future shorts in the next, say month or so, is "Bring them on!"
I say this because if the companies are sound companies, then they will continue to be good holdings going forward. Nothing has changed regarding the actual companies. So these short term share price drops are Excellent opportunities to buy a new stock from one's watch list or to add some more shares to an existing holding. Or nice opportunities for some shorter term trading, such as over a few weeks are being presented.
As far as VRX is concerned over my years I have noticed that on the TSX when a company grows very rapidly and becomes the biggest on the TSX that it shortly afterwards will get knocked down in price significantly. There will be different reasons for each specific stock but it happens. The reason's may be fact based or not fact based, it does not matter. The important part is that it will happen. Think Nortel.

Q: Is 8-9 drop in share price due to disappointing earnings warranted or an overreaction? Sell or hold a small position? Thank you.
