Q: Hello Peter & Co

Thanks
Dave

Question: Hello Peter & Co, (Feb.9)
The above represents 13% of my RRIF Equity portfolio. I hold CCT,CPH,CXR,GUD,RX and thinking of nibbling in VRX,CRH,PHM; would you please rank them as if I did not own anything.
Thanks,
Tony

5i Research Answer:
These are all so different it is really hard to rank and compare but we would say VRX (for size and stability), PHM (for growth and a decent valuation) and then CRH (due to it looking pricey).


5i Research Answer: (Feb.23)
We think CRH is still OK; it is a solid company getting new attention; yet is still only 14 X earnings, so not too pricey at all.

Q: Hi Peter I think you "like" the stock and it seems to have a nice p/e ,decent dividend to allow for growth...you have also mentioned possible large real estate value not fully recognized on books I think. Time to add a small position in a new non-financial/energy/utility company and I am thinking of this one. Without regard to industry as it will be a small holding do you like it better than GH,RPI.UN, CSW.A and WB and if not which one is your favourite of the group and why over ADW.A
Thanks for all you do

Q: I've been in and out on PLI a couple of times. It has been a volatile stock. It has hit new highs lately. I'd like to get back in but I feel it has received a lot of attention now and it might be overpriced at this time. I want back in but feel the price will drop and if I wait it out I'll get a better price. What are your thoughts ?

Q: Hi, I'd like to get your opinion on Crh's Q4 release that came out yesterday after the close. Did it beat or miss expectations? Was their acquisition expense just one time in Nature or did anything look off? I've done quite well with this name in a short time period but I think I'll hold or add a little for further growth if everything looks okay.

Thanks

Q: Hi - your comments on the financing- it appears to have been upsized and over subscribed. What do you think of the theory that this will be used for more acquisitions?

Q: Good afternoon Peter and Team:
In considering an investment in this year's TFSA for a 45-year-old long-term investor(at least 10-15 years time frame), GUD is being considered. Looking at the TMX website, it shows a beta of -0.379. What are the implications of such a low correlation to the overall market in a fairly well-balanced portfolio that already holds CLU.C, CXI, DHX.B, FSZ, MDA, VET, and WSP? Would GUD be a good fit for this year's contribution, or do you have any other suggestions? Thanks for your valued advice and fantastic service.

Q: This large Gamesys acquisition by Intertain Group appears to have similarities to Amaya's transformational deal. When Amaya announced the deal, you were bold with your projections and subsequent share price appreciation supported your thesis. What would be your analysis and thoughts around future success of the Co.? Do you foresee a decent upside to share price from current level ($17)? Thanks

Q: Hello

What is the dividend yield on DOL? It pays an 8c dividend quarterly and current market price is about $60.

As per TMX money the yield is around 1.05% http://web.tmxmoney.com/quote.php?qm_symbol=DOL:TSX

I come up with a different number when I calculate it:
($0.08x4)/$60 = 0.53% dividend yield.

What am I missing?

Thank you
