Q: Hi Team
I sold my position in Web Tech wireless when approval was given for a share consolidation of 1 for 5.Consolidations from my experience are usually negative for the share price.The company looks decent enough at this price,i believe they are cash flow positive and also have around 23 million in cash.My thinking is that i should be able to re-purchase shares after they drift down for a year or so after the consolidation.Can i have your comments please.
Thanks Gordon

Q: Entrec ent is being added to the tsx and removed from the venture. I would think this is positive news. I like the space they are in. Own 1000 shares and looking to add to my position. Would you buy it? Thanks for Amaya. Sold half my position today at $20, letting the rest ride for free! Cannot get too greedy. Thank you thank you.

Q: LVH - Las Vegas From Home. I have held this stock for years and am still deep in the ditch. However if I bought it earlier this year I would be up nicely. Timing really is a roll of the dice.

However, given the recent news for AYA, would this make LVH as good opportunity buy right now?

Thanks for your help and guidance.

Q: IBI.BB

I own some IBI 7% Debentures that are coming due in December 2014. IBI has made an offer to extend the maturity date to 2019 and they haveattached 2 options with a yes vote:

"Option A" Debentureholders receive a consent fee, consisting of an unsecured, non-convertible promissory note equal to $195.65 per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, payable December 31, 2016 and bearing interest at the rate of 7.0% per annum and payable on maturity; or

"Option B" Debentureholders receive a consent fee, consisting of an unsecured, non-convertible promissory note equal to $86.96 per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, payable December 31, 2016 and bearing interest at the rate of 7.0% per annum and payable on maturity and the reduction of the conversion price for the Debentures to $5.00 per common share from $19.17 per common share.

The no voters would only get the changed conversion price.

Which option would you suggest, or would you suggest selling it. It's value presently is only about 1% of my RRSP portfolio.
