Q: Hi, Stella-Jones stock has been quite strong for past 2 weeks with all time intra day high of $52. I also noticed some fairly large block trades starting at $49.75 and recently at $51.50. Do you think there is some new institutional interest in the company? Ram Forest Group is engaged in supplying timber to US residential homes market. Is this a positive ? How is the valuation of stock, versus, growth prospects of various segments of its business, railway ties, poles, residential lumber etc? I have a 3% position and considering to build up to 5%. Should I wait for the stock to settle ? Thank You

As she is likely to continue owning mutual funds, I suggested that she should start a brokerage account and buy the following bit by bit .

1. FINANCIAL BANKS ... BNS, TD or RY
2. FINANCIAL INSURANCE ... SLF or GWO
3. ETFs… XSP, CDZ in Canada , or VGG

What would you suggest ?

Q: I bought half a position on the recent dip but it seems to have recovered. Would you buy another half now or wait for another dip? I suppose this is one of those technical analysis questions and its probably like asking what the result of a coin toss is in advance but I thought you might have better insight than me on picking an entry point. I tend to be terrible at it.

Q: Wonderful company. Reading their financial statements, however, they are starting to 'speak' less about growth and more about profits, cash flow, dividends. Is there any reasonable work that indicates their market share? Without getting into related/adjacent industries/products do they have any real opportunity to grow left? Thanks for the A+ service!

Q: Hi,

I hold Stella Jones in my RRSP and know you like the company. I'm considering selling my position in CNR which is held outside my RRSP as many see it as expensive at this point and adding SJ in order to maintain exposure to this sector. Can you compare the valuation of the two and provide your thoughts on my strategy.

Thanks
