Q: Hi Peter
Have done very well by your CDN stock picks. I know US stocks are not something you specialize in but a question. If I wanted to buy one US conglomerate (not in health care) for long term low risk growth and income what would be your top choices? Much thanks

Q: I have three stinkers that you have given up on and that I intend to abandon as well. I follow a selection of stocks in your portfolios but didn't sell when you removed them (to my regret): GXI, SCR and FM.

Do you have any advice on ditching these losers? Specifically, should I 1) sell today at market, having decided I don't like them; 2) set a good-till-cancel limit sell order at a better price; or 3) sell in the new year in the hopes of a bounce post-tax-loss-selling season? Or something else. I'm happy to be patient short-term but want them gone by February. Thanks for this great service.

Q: I see they are reporting in early December. Is it advisable to start a position now or wait - or is there no preference? You mentioned they have long-term contracts; would that imply reasonably "secure" forecasts and have you an opinion on those? The stock price lately has shown no direction.
Thank you.

Q: Hi Team,
Trying to find a good entry point for lmp. Can you help me with the earnings expectations for this company over the next 2-3 years?

Ideally, I'd like to hold for the same time frame. I don't want to waste a year though as they grow into their multiple.

Thanks,

Q: I am under weight in the technology sector. From your portfolios what technology stocks might you recommend at this time (I own DH)? I am good with either income or growth stocks.

Is there a stock not in your portfolios that you may recommend over the others?

Thanks

Q: Hello Peter & 5i Group,
I've been a member since shortly after you offered your services and watch your appearances on BNN shows with great interest. In my opinion your service is top notch. Most members ask good to the point questions. However there is getting to be a number of members that are writing a LETTER in asking a question, almost to the point of asking you to manage their portfolios. Have you considered limiting the length of their questions??
Thanks again for your great services.

Q: A followup on the answer to Brian's question: the 4.74% reset rate is on the issue price, $25, correct? That would mean that the issue would pay $1.185 US dividend, more than the current $1 US. So with the current 5.2% yield expected to lift to 6.1% based on the current $19.20 SP, that makes these ENB US$ issues attractive buys, particularly with US interest rates expected to rise, does it not? Thanks, J.

Q: I have just reviewed your report on WiLan. I have a small position on this stock down about 50%. Would it be worthwhile to just hold the stock for a year or so and see what happens. Don't need the tax loss, thanks

Q: Is the reason for this stock's demise over the past couple of years solely related to activity, or the lack thereof, in the oil patch? The dividend has kept me hanging on while I wait for a recovery. You have often referrd to the company's cash reserves so should I still feel comfortable that the dividend will be paid and wait for oil activity to recover?

Thanks for the insight.
