Q: Re AEcon, you commented yesterday that you see it as “more sideways than anything” ... could you please expand and explain why you think this? .. I’ve noticed some analysts forecasting a price of $23 (now at about $15), so i take it you don’t share that view ... also, when we see an analyst forecasting a price (e.g. $23 for ARE), what is the time frame? (By the end of this calendar year?) ... thanks!

Q: I am thinking of selling these three companies currently held in a growth portfolio to make way for some higher growth tech names. I do have the cash in my RRSP and could buy these stocks back in that portfolio but wonder if you have any better suggestions? I am particularly worried about CCL.B it has not held up to expectations.

Q: Have 2.3% in ARE ,2.4 In TFII. Thing of selling ARE at a loss and adding to TFII purchased @ $28.42 . ARE has. Slightly higher dividend . I consider TFII a better growth stock than ARE.
TFII has had a sharp drop from $48 . I consider throwing out the baby with the bath water. Strong need for transport and lower gas prices adds to an incentive to buy.
I’m I on track?

Q: I have the following securities in what I consider a balanced portfolio. The fixed income portion doesn’t show here because it consists of OAS. CCP. Plus two other pensions.
I’m thinking of sell part position in MMX ( small loss);and ARE to realize a capital loss while at the same time raising some cash for the next pullback. I like TFII . We need to keep the food chain moving. Trucking an important part . The other is cargo jet. Am I on the right track . Your opinion. Or would you look elsewhere given the current holdings.

Q: Interested in buying ARE. Your thoughts and thanks!
Q: Any thoughts on ARE's recent acquisition of Voltage Power. I see that ARE has been in the "middle of the pack" in your Q&A. Neither at the top nor at the bottom. Can you foresee it reaching 21 $ again as they seem to be slowly and steadily acquiring companies that give them good growth potential.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
