Q: Hello - thanks for your great service! I have 2 questions. The first is in regards to the Balanced Equity Portfolio. I follow it fairly closely and I noticed that you suggest a 5% weighting in each name, however it looks like it has grown from 20 names to about 23 names. Would you then begin each name with a ~4% weighting as opposed to 5%? If so, at what percentage would you trim the weighting? Would it still be at 7% as per previously suggested or would you say 6% if the starting point is about 4%?

My second question is in regards to starting a position in MX. Generally I will add names as soon as it gets added to the BE Portfolio. I saw it had a big run up today. With today's big run up, would you be comfortable taking a full position in it at the closing price today or would you wait for a lower entry point? If so, what would that be?

Thanks again for your great service!

Q: Hello Peter & Team, in my portfolio I have positions in all sectors of the economy except for materials. Other than gold stocks, could you suggest 2 or 3 names, in the materials sector, that have decent dividend and growth potential ? Thank you, Gervais

Q: Hi I5Resarch Team,

I have a full position on MX and am currently down by about 25% (it's down by about 8% today so far). Should I bite the bullet and take the loss or should I just sit tight and wait for a turn around? What are the Teams's assessments on this company going forward?

Regards,
Harry

Q: I've been looking at Methanex in view of the dramatic price drop. Further big drop today despite better earnings announcement and reasonably optimistic outlook. On the other hand 40% of earnings related to O&G industry. Would you consider this worthy of a buy or more like a falling knife? Thanks for your opinion.
