Q: Peter & Team, I can't find any information on Dalsin and Greene selling their shares, as suggested in the previous question. There is a July 13th company press release pre-announcing very impressive results, a 14.5 million share buy back (5% of issued shares) and executive leadership changes; nothing about the founders cashing in (although they are taking on non-executive board roles). Can you please clarify. Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

What are your thoughts on the current pricing of PHM? Do you think the price has hit a bottom yet? I have 3/4 position, so should I be adding or wait and see what the next results bring?

Also when is Concordia's next earnings report? Last earnings was OK, with light revenue, did management adjust guidance for this or was there just lag in sales say due to timing of acquisitions?

Thanks, Shane

Q: Having just noticed that the two main principals in PHM "privately disposed" of over 13 million shares each, I am wondering if my recent praise was premature. What is the difference between a disposition being carried out privately or publicly? Would privately mean they may have simply transferred their shares to a separate company as both now show zero shares on Canadian Insider?
Thank you.

Q: I'm planning to use your three model portfolios as a guide for my own investments. While your models show percentage holdings for each stock within a portfolio, I haven't noticed a theoretical total dollar amount or relative percentage for each of the three portfolios as a whole.
My question is what percentage of each of the three portfolios would you recommend to someone with a 5-7 year horizon?

Thanks as always for your great website

Q: Good morning. I have taken over the investments of my 91 year old, fairly healthy mother-in-law and have nearly finished rebalancing her portfolio. Dividends are useful but not essential. There is still $13k to invest in her $450k portfolio and I am having trouble in deciding between ATD.B, MDA and ESL for the last position. Assuming her portfolio is now well balanced and understanding her longevity is uncertain, which of these companies (or possibly 2 if the choice is difficult) would you. Thanks for the great service and I value your opinion.

Q: Hello,

I have a question that pops form time to time and I feel bad for asking it again, but in the last few months I was always on the wrong side of a trade.
From the growth portfolio (GP)(I was not able to get in when it was announced) and by the time I got to it things have gone up. I ended buying WIN and GUD (and down on both as we speak).
As you see it now (both markets and companies) which ones from the GP you would recommend or any other company for that matter.

Thanks

Q: Dear 5i,
What are your top 5 growth picks (from your growth portfolio) to buy at this time? It is for an RRSP that would not need to be used for 10+ years.

Thanks for all you hard work,
Kerri
