Q: Hi, we have a small <1% holding in Well Health. Stock does not seem to gain traction over $7-$8 level, despite great news time to time, over past 2 years. I know, you have a lot of conviction in the company, based on the CEO's past record. Even the last news of their majority share holder and HK business tycoon, snapping company's shares @ $9.50, during a private placement. My question is that is the stock worth holding due to its growth potential ( despite not so impressive price movement ) and if so, do you believe, it could reach $9-$10 in next 1-2 years. Or, we should be patient, expecting a buyer, at some point in the future.

Thank You

Q: Hi 5i Team

I see your Balanced, Growth and Income Funds annualised return since inception are 16.6%, 11.8% and 6.8%, respectively.

If one was to have a portfolio of a mix of these Co’s - banks, utilities and then Co’s like WSP, TFII, etc…..modelling out future returns what annual return would you use?

16.6% is obviously too high and 6.8% a bit low….is using 8% realistic?

Thx

Short term and 2. long term? Thanks again.

Q: Lots of questions about this one.

One argument I've heard for why the stock isn't up on the dividend news is that the dividend isn't tax efficient for US holders, who evidently own about 40% of ECN float. That coupled with the embedded gains and worry about taxes increasing has them selling now, and the CDN demand for those shares being sold isn't enough to push the stock price higher.

If this is true, it may limit the near term opportunities even after the dividend if Americans feel burned that they didn't get a good deal out of a great deal made by ECN.

That all said, I've added to my already large position due largely to management and they're proven abilities.

My 2 cents, curious what you think.
