Q: Hello, what do you guys think of Solium Capital (SUM.TO)? I have held it for a while and it was a steady climb until August. Now the stock seems to be a bit directionless. This is a half weight position in the higher risk part of my portfolio. Should I take profits and move on or hold for a few more quarters to see what comes of it?

thanks

Q: Hi Peter,
surprise, Wi-Lan signed a new contract, but it seems like not a lot of reaction. I still own the stock, do you think the tide is changing? Thanks a lot

Q: I am interested in your opinion on a penny stock (Digital Media - PN) that supplies the ability to process photo orders on line for the likes of Costco and now the Office Depot and Staples customers.  They have no debt, big name relationships, but have yet to turn a profit.

Q: Good morning all.
I just heard of this quite new(mid 2011)fund TLF.UN and am wondering what sort of option this fund would be for following the tech sector in the US via the TSX. A Brompton Fund at (http://www.bromptongroup.com/funds/fund/tlf/overview) it pays a nice distribution and has a mgmt fee of 0.75 but I expect the MER is higher. It looks like it is holding 16 positions and is fairly active writing covered calls to boost returns. Does 5i have any knowledge of, insights on or opinions about this fund and would something like QQQX or other be a better vehicle for following the US tech sector? TLF is small and probably not that liquid.
Thank you again for your wonderful service and support!

Q: Hi 5i, OMG what's with Wilan. Is it time to throw in the towel. As everything else that's decent continues to grind higher, this dog in my portfolio sends me around the bend. Is it time to take my loss or is there anything you know coming. I feel that after holding this for years now I will sell and up it will go. lol Thanks as always, you guys, girls are wonderful.

Q: Re GIB.A: is this an example of noise from sell side analysts?

"Deutsche Bank downgraded CGI Group to Sell saying the company's aggressive accounting has driven much of the reported margin improvement. The firm says CGI's top line growth is weak and lowered its price target for shares to $24 from $32." (Sept.3)

What I don't understand is: why not just say the outlook for the company is poor or shares are overvalued rather than smear the company's accountants? Any thoughts? J.
