Q: I have held CXI for a long time and am willing to hold longer. However, I am intrigued by PEO, particularly because of Peter's continued interest in it. The question is, do I cash CXI in and buy PEO? Does PEO present a better growth option than CXI or if/when CXI comes out of its doldrums would you expect CXI to show better growth over the next few years? Given I have held CXI this long and consider myself a long term investor, I am wondering if I would be "betraying" my philosophy if I sell or am I just being unreasonably fearful that I would miss out on CXI?

I am looking at exchanging these two as it would maintain my financial sector holdings.

Appreciate your insight.

Q: I don't own PEO however, I'm interested in your positive comments as to its financial condition. Firstly, PEO has about 80% of its assets in Goodwill & Intangibles. Its' NET asset value is really only equal to its debt which would indicate a NAV or Book of approx .75c. Maybe I'm too old or just too conservative. Your comments. Thank you.

Q: I'm looking to add 3 small cap stocks to my non RRSP/TFSA investments. Which above stocks would you recommend? Thanks for your great service.

Q: Hello,
There seems to be not much information or coverage of PEO. Can you give some details of the company. It seems to be performing well and you have it in the growth portfolio. What are your thoughts about initiating a position at these levels. Are stocks listed in the venture exchange inherently more risky than those listed in the TSX? Thanks.

Q: Stocks in your model portfolios. TNC - when is this takeover going to be completed? It seems like it is taking a long time.
ITC - this stock is the majority of the time under $2.00 and for the short period of time that it goes above $2.00, everyone hits the sell button and it goes back below $2.00. Should I be hitting the sell button the next time it gets over $2.00 because it is the worst performing stock in my portfolio. PEO - also has over the last two months been another under-performer and so should I get out of it? Thank you for your good service Dennis.

Q: A friend worked at PEO a few years back and mentioned the stock to me at .30 saying in conversation the CEO - who she had a great respect for - suggested he was building this company to a $10.00 share price. After watching the company, I took an initial position, then added to it when 5i came on board. I am overweight now and it continues to rise. I'm curious why he would pick $10.00, would that be a market cap where bidders would step in, an exit point perhaps? I realize you cant read minds, but after seeing companies built and sold, any thoughts here? What would be the main risks with this company?
