Q: Hi 5i team, I have held HNZ Group (HNZ.A) for a long time now and at the time of purchase the company was trading at a low valuation, paid a nice dividend and had little or no debt. Here we are several years later, it still seems cheap, still pays a good dividend, still little or no debt but the share price has gone nowhere. Can I have your opinion on this company and what do you feel is needed to see a "nice" share price increase. Finally do you see the share increasing over the next few years or am I only going to collect the dividends. If you see it going nowhere can you suggest a good replacement. I already own most of the companies in both your model and income portfolios. Thanks. Mario.

Q: I purchased some shares of Martin Rea (MRE) some time ago then purchased about 80% more when there began issues with the Board. My shares are now up by about 60% reflecting, I believe, the resolution of the fight within the Board. When I compare MRE to Magna, I see that MRE is essentially flat over the past year whereas MGA is up about 50%. Since the 50% for Magna is reflected to some degree in its higher PE ratio than MartinRea’s, is it reasonable to expect that MRE still has some opportunities to increase in value at a faster pace than Magna? I have no plans to sell my MRE because of the potential catchup of PE ratio unless you feel that I should be exchanging the MRE for Magna recognizing the quality of Magna versus MRE. My percentage of MRE is only about 2-3% of my entire portfolio. At this time in the auto business cycle would you recommend me increasing the percentage to the 5% range or stay cautious. If you recommend I should buy more again which of the two (or others?) would you recommend? As always, I highly respect your opinion and recommendations even if I don’t always follow them.

Q: Two stocks I came across and bought by reading questions and answers on your 5i site were PTS and CHN. I asked 5i about PTS awhile back and your answer was it was a long term play. I should have asked what entry point you would go with because I paid a lot more money than what it is today. CHN is down more than it is up. Waiting for your reply.
