Q: Hi Peter, Ryan,

For a long-term hold, is today a good entry point for PBH and CCL.B? If so, would you purchase a full or 1/2 position? If only one was to be purchased which has the best value and upside? One last question, are they best held in a TFSA or RRSP?
Please take the appropriate credits for our inquiry.
Cheers,
Jerry and Debbie

Q: I would appreciate your thoughts on the weak price performance of PBH stock. PKI by contrast is much stronger although the metrics of PBH are at least comparable. For example both have high debt over 120% of equity. Both have forward earnings growth over 30% and both trade on a forward PE below the 5 year low PE. The big difference is the price action. PKI trades close to median price that analysts estimate for next year whereas PBH is well below those estimates. I am assuming you prefer the good price momentum of PKI and, all being equal, you would go with PKI despite the apparent better value in PBH? Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Q: With the recent sell off, have any of the above stocks (contained in either the Income or Balanced Portfolios) reached the stage where you would call them "table-pounding buys"? In other words, has the market overreacted and the pendulum has swung too far?

Obviously, there is always the chance of a continued downdraft, but at some point you just step in top up your holdings.

The Income Portfolio is sitting on 10% cash...any thought to deploying some of it soon? Thanks...Steve

Q: I am a buy-and-hold, dividend/dividend growth investor. I am contemplating exiting my position in PG and establishing a full position in PBH, for a long term hold. Would 5i endorse this move? How long do you think PBH will be able to sustain its very impressive dividend growth rate? Thank you.
