Q: Hello 5i Team,
Belgacom (BGAOY) looks like a good buy to my untrained eye, with a wonderful dividend, to purchase this I would probably sell China mobile. I’m looking for a good long term trade and do not want to flip flop between stocks for no reason. Also, can you give me your best two or three stocks outside Canada that have excellent long term potential with a great dividend, market cap is not my primary concern? Sorry about all the questions outside Canada, but I do follow your portfolios.
Many thanks

Q: Do you have an opinion on JC Penny (JCP) as a three year buy? They have been hammered but are showing signs they have the ability to recover and grow with the anticipated US economic improvement?
Thank you.

Q: In regards to MORL and CEFL. They both have redemption clauses that can be exercised by the company at any time. Is this something to be worried about? And are these normal for these types of funds and ETNs? Thanks.

Q: I have purchased stock in TRN in the US, who make rail cars. It is doing well and I will hold on to that. Do you know if any companies in Canada are supplying CNR and CP with railcars and, if so, if you would recommend them?

Q: If one was to initiate a position in ATHN <Athena> would this be an opportune time or has the picture changed? I see Q1 EPS being reported lighter than consensus, and the stock sitting on the 200 day MA hasn't had the recent bounce the sector has. Thanks, J.

Q: 3D Systems DDD

In doing some research I have come to realize 3D Systems has real products they are selling to real customers. And they have just announced acquiring Robtec, the "largest additive manufacturing service bureau and 3D/Printer Scanner distributor in Latin America."

I am sure we all agree 3D printing will one day be a reality for everyone as the cost comes down while sales go up - i.e. PC's, VCR/PVR's, Cell Ph's etc...

The argument has been no one is certain who will surface in the end as a real player in the sector and who will fall by the wayside and become a no body.

As of today, DDD is down 49% on the year but over the past 2 days has seen a 4% rebound. Do you think DDD is at the bottom? Would you suggest a buy or not quite yet?

Thanks for all the help
