Q: As a follow up to my previous question regarding the drop in the price of Stella jones shares I too did not see anything in the company specific news that would affect the price of the shares. But when you see the shares dropping as they have there may be other underlying reasons for other investors to sell their shares. Under a Trump led government in the USA is there anything in the policies, attitude toward free trade etc that you can see as potential negatives for the company?

Q: Hi Peter A lot of concerns over PBH the recent downward pressure is the result of on analyst's downgrade for reasons he only knows .
By selling into this crap only exacerbates this issue .
The company is preforming well and expansion is on target and is raising cash through debenture offering at a great rate and as a investor I believe this is the best form of debt ,in a worst case is exchangeable for shares.
As members of 5i we are fortunate to have this private forum to share thoughts

Q: There are two companies in your model portfolio ( SJ and KXS) that are being taken out behind the wood shed and being thrashed severely. Can you offer any reasons for this? Are there any possible concerns regarding the companies that we should be aware of and should we continue to hold the shares. Stella Jones is of particular concern with its downward spiral and down around 5% this morning.

Q: I am trying to quantify my risk if 10 year treasury rates go back to the "normal" levels of 10 years ago (i.e. 4.5% to 5%). Would you be able to provide a reference to a source of dividend yields for the above stocks at that time? Would this be a good indicator of price risk for these stocks?

Thanks

Q: Hello, Please suggest a least risky ETf for some income in lieu of keeping cash. This would be a most conservative position to earn some income instead of keeping cash and earning nothing. This is a RESP with Questrade for my 16 year old child. I had liquidated some positions so total 40% is in cash. Thanks.
