Q: Dear 5i
I recently bought AIF and ITC (half positions).
Both are down between 15 and 20% . Should i let things settle down a bit first before buying into a full position in each ?
In other words do you still have positive thoughts on these two stocks over the next 2-3 years ?
Thanks
Bill C

Q: Peter:

This week Ralph Garcea at Echelon Partners initiated coverage on Intrinsyc with a Spec. buy rating with a C$3.35 12m target. This is ITC's first analyst. As a former small cap fund manager did you pay attention to new reports from small cap's who are not raising capital? Do you think this report will begin to draw some institutional attention to ITC?

Q: I have owned CRH from around $3.00. After it doubled i sold half my position. It has now almost doubled again. I am not overweight the name but would it be wise to reduce it to a half position now as it seems to have run up so quickly? Basically should i be locking in some gains or do you have confidence it will perform in the medium term?

Q: Even with their new banking licence Currency exchange Corp's stock seems to not be able to gain any traction. Would you consider it worthwhile to sell Currency exchange Corp and replace it with Goeasy ? Goeasy would pay me to wait while CXI gets their stuff together. I think they are both in the same sector. Would the switch strengthen my portfolio.

Q: Is this still a strong hold ... or has it deteriorated to a tepid one? Everything seems a bit lacklustre on its future, judging from the recent replies you've made to other members. Perhaps I'm misinterpreting, but your answer to Colum on Mar 1st suggested, in a roundabout way, that "it's time to dump this loser". I'm down 26% and wonder what it would take to inject some life into this company?

Q: The contract with Chinese Company was for $ 1,100,000.00 to build 37 lifts. This works out to $ 30,000.00 per lift. Seems cheap to me.Is this a lost leader for future business in China. China will be a huge market for SIS. I really like the deal. Your thoughts please. Sis is projecting revenue growth of 19.1 % and Ebitda growth of 30 %.How much of their production comes from China ? A real winner. Thank you 5I.Bob
