Q: I piled into GNW.us just days before management confessed to large capital shortfalls causing shares to fall off a cliff. Management would have known about the significant deficit in reserves months ahead of releasing results, yet I see no actions pending against them by US regulatory bodies.

I compounded my buy error by anchoring on my much higher cost, a logic error well documented in behavioral economics. I thought GNW.us owned a chunk of the Canadian company Genworth (MIC.to) . I could not confirm whether GNW.us still owns a significant percentage of Genworth Canada. I browsed your two earlier comments on GNW.us but things are said to have changed since then.

Is it best to sell and salvage what’s left? Or do you now see some benefit in waiting? Is it wishful thinking that the remaining value is now less likely to evaporate?

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team,

I am interested in buying KO. I have never purchased American or international stocks, so it is all new to me. Am I better off purchasing it in my TFSA discount brokerage accounts or in my non-registered (regular) discount brokerage account? What are the tax implications for both scenarios?

Thanks for your help,

Terri.

Q: Hi 51 team
Is there any reason for Delta to have slid about 17% since Jan. I'm down that much, and would like your opinion if it's worth keeping or just move on. Thanks and good work.

Q: Hello Peter and team,

I was wondering which index fund you guys would recommend for the most growth over the next 20 years. I am looking at either adding XSU or VGG. I know historically small caps outperform over the longer time frame. But I would assume given enough data that dividend growers would also outperform the market and possibley the small cap index? This position is being added for U.S exposure and I will be dollar cost averaging by contributing every qaurter. Your thoughts please.

Thanks

Q: I regret there may have been a misunderstanding of my question on BAXALTA (BXLT.us). I asked if BAXALTA was worth keeping. I made reference to BAX only to say that BXLT has just been spun off by BAXTER (BAX.us). I also wondered if BAXALTA represented the bad parts of the former BAX operations and asked if BXLT was worth keeping. Perhaps I should not have made a cross-reference to BAX.us but I did so thinking it relevant to my question on BAXALTA . I would be thankful for your comment on my original question, namely whether BXLT.us is worth keeping.

I apologize if I erred in making reference to BXLT’s former owner BAX. Thank you and my best.

Q: I'm a shareholder of Collectors Universe (CLCT). In the past you've recommended this company and it's in line with what I want -- which is income.

Looking into their annual reports, I see that their share price has been steadily increasing over the last 5 years. Is this a concern as their dividend payout also seems to be a high and the combination seems risky to me (because more stock means a higher total dividend each quarter)
