Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Please speculate as to why Amazon's stock price is so erratic after hours. I am aware of their negative quarterly results but why the bounce back then???

Q: I believe you offer limited views on US companies - possibly you follow Encore Capital (ECPG) - I have done very well with this stock but, now, it continues to back up even though fundamentals look very solid.

Q: Hi Peter and the 5i team,
Do you know of any public disaster recovery/restoration companies that are similar in operations to Belfor (http://www.belfor.com/) that would allow one to get exposure to that industry?
The company does not have to be located in Canada.
Thanks,
Arneh

Q: I am of the belief that interest rates are set to rise in the near term (although I have held this belief for the last Year). To play this thesis, I am looking at PROSHARES SHORT 20+ YEAR TREASURY ETF (TBF;NY). At today's price, this ETF is at a 52-week low so I feel that there will be greater upside potential than downside risk. I am looking at a 5% position as a hedge to my positions in interest rate sensitive stocks in the telecomm and enegy infrastructure space that will decline if interest rates do rise. Does this thesis make sense?
Also, in the event that the 10 Year Yield moves higher (say 3.0%), what impact will there be on Canadian and US Financials?
Thank You.

Q: re: TWX Time Warner
After the nice rise, TWX is down over 4% since the close of last session. It was reported that 21st Century Fox isn't likely to face any competing bidders to buy the movie studio and cable channel owner.
Do you think this is reason enough for the slightly lower closing or is there something else we should be aware of? And would suggest taking a portion of the profits recently realized when the takeover bid news was originally aired, or sit tight?
Thanks for all you do

Q: Good afternoon
GlaxoSmithKline PLC GSK.US suddenly dropped over 5% today. Is there any particular reason for this? Anything to do with bribery scandal in China?
I bought 100 shares a few years ago and they now represent 1.2% of our joint registered portfolios. There hasn't been much growth but I can't complain because I initially bought them for dividend, which at the time was 5.3%. I've been watching just recently, because I would like to invest in a company that has equally good dividends with better growth. I would have been slightly ahead of the game if I had acted yesterday, but I am in a loss position at the moment.
I'm trying to decide if I should hang on for a while to let the price recover and see if I can break even or make a modest profit, or whether it is just time wasted while I can be doing better elsewhere.
I don't hold any other any other Pharma shares.

Q: Hello 5i,
I have 2 stocks that are near 52 week highs, but have concerns about.
1) Chr.b Chorus Aviation, I am concerned that they rely on Air Canada for business and should AC decide to go with another carrier or fly these routes themselves it would ruin Chorus.
2) Win.US, Windstream Holdings, there is always concern that they will not be able to maintain the current dividend ($ 1.00 per year)because they have too much debt and declining revenues.
Are my concerns warranted? Would you hold or sell these stocks?
Thanks.
