Q: Hi there, can you please provide further clarification to your response on NYX today. Why would William Hill want to block the take over? Would it not just hurt their holding in NYX? Unless they want to hold out for more cash for their preferred shares then what the take over offer is for? Would that not push the share price possibly higher, not lower, on speculation for a higher bid from Scientific? Somewhat confused here with the share price reaction. Can you tell if William Hill has increased their holding in NYX recently for a possible move on NYX themselves, shaking out weak holders today with this move? Thanks!

PS: the new site upgrades looks great!

Q: I'm 84 and invest for income with some growth. We have full positions on 23 holdings in our joint account, with a value of over $900G. I'm considering trimming some of the loftier positions and taking a half position in AFN for income and growth. It is a rather small company but seems to have good prospects in Asia. Can I have your comments on AFN. Thanks, Ted

Q: Hi Peter and 5i team,
We hold Enbridge in a taxable account and are considering trading to another company with better growth potential. We like the dividend but one anaylist says that all earnings are needed to support the dividend. He thinks the stock price is over valued raising warning flags. Another anaylist likes the name and thinks it is good value.
Enbridge is in the 5i income fund. Is 5i still confident in the company? Our position at present is flat.
Thank you for your opinion

Q: Dear Sirs,
I am looking for 5 companies(Canadian and US ) that you feel would weather a good sized market correction well. I understand that the US is not a primary focus but would appreciate any names you feel comfortable suggesting as part of a grouping of 5 to 10 names. As an aside , would you view a holding of Berkshire Hathaway as meeting the above criteria.

With thanks
