Q: I am interested in your opinion on proposals that systemically important Canadian banks may adopt bail-in provisions such that uninsured deposits would not be bailed out by the Government - I believe Canadians have always assumed the Feds would bail out a big 6 Canadian bank but recent discussions in the aftermath of Cyprus seem to call this assumption into question

Q: You have written about the predictive value of a company paying its first ever dividend. Do you feel this principal applies to Apple? Apple started paying a dividend one year ago, is down 30% since then, generates tons of free cash flow and is widely expected to raise the dividend within the quarter.

Q: Peter
Is it best to buy a half position in a stock and then the other half when the stock is showing some strength or when it dips in price ? What percentage of increase or decrease in stock price do you go by before adding to a position ?
Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and 5i
Like to know when you are going to write a book or start giving investment courses (live or on line). Been trading stocks, reading books going to courses and seminars, subscribing to investment news letters (5i and Investors Digest are the only 2 I've stayed with) since the 70's 5i and Money saver are the best Iv'e seen. You should go on a speaking tour and offer courses, similar to Monday mourning Larry on BNN. Just a suggestion but you and your staff are the best.

Q: I've traded Trevali (TV) a couple times, looking at it again. Typically how do flow through share issues like they recently announced (just a few % above present trading with 4 month hold) affect the share price? Buy now or wait 4 months and see what happens? When money is spent over the next year on exploration obviously in 4 months it shouldn't affect share price in that time frame? thanks
