Q: Peter;,In today's Globe , page B2, there is an article about a film showing at your TIFF regarding the Chinese reverse takeover situation. Do you lend any credence to this and is there any way to identify those companies that were created using this method? Thanks.

Q: Thank you for your suggestion of books to read on my earlier question. I really enjoyed "what works on wallstreet" and find the quantitative analysis methods really interesting and been applying them on my own excel spread sheets. Just wondering if you have any suggestions of books of similar nature?

Q: Hello 5i.

I have some cash and would like to add another US stock to my portfolio, and looking for a recommendation.

I currently own Enbridge (US market), Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, UnitedHealth Group AT&T and McDonald's.

Based on what I own, can you recommend 3 or 4 stocks which you think would be good for my portfolio?

Income is not necessary, but not a problem if it has a dividend. I am looking to invest in a well managed company, with good balance sheet, and good growth potential.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my question.

Q: A year ago I took less than a full position in Citigroup that has now grown to more than 5% of my holdings. What are your thoughts on trimming to about 3 or 4% and with some additional US funds investing in PACW Pacwest Bancorp. It looks like this would allow a better growth outlook for the funds as well as double the dividends. If a suitable investment what would be the maximum PACW % that you would consider prudent? On the Cdn side I already have full postions of TD and BNS. Thank you.

Q: I normally wouldn't touch a stock in the marijuana area, but what drew me to Canntrust, TRST, are the people invested in it - some significant insiders it would seem - and the fact that it's not on the recreational side of the business. Do you have thoughts on this one?

Thanks very much...
