Q: Now getting absolutely shellacked - below $77. I know you've answered questions about this one today, but do you have any rational for this horrible action. No doubt the deal was not placed well notwithstanding the talk of it being over subscribed. What a joke!

Q: I have to admit that I am truly puzzled be the way the shares have dropped today to around $11 below the new share issue price. I was expecting that the shares night trade around the issue price of about $86 Canadian or slightly below. But $11 seems very excessive. What am I missing? And what does the market know that we don't? At the very least I would have expected the underwriters to maintain the share price close to the issue price in order to successfully market the shares. Where do you see the shares going from here?
Q: Is it just me or is Amaya looking very cheap right now? I don't see any specific catalyst that would cause the recent sell off.
Q: Dear 5i,
I currently own Concordia (3%), Gilead (3.5%), JNJ (1.5%,) Baxter (1.5%) and PHM (.75%).
Given the recent developments of CXR and PHM, I am considering adding 1% of one of these companies (CXR or PHM). Which do you think would be the better of the two for a 2 to 3 year hold. Or would you recommend something else in healthcare?
Thanks for your services!

Q: Hi Peter, I finally said uncle on AVO and sold. I know it may go back up (even though the chart is horrible) and I hope it does for those still holding it, but selling it felt Soooo Good :) Its nice not to see it next to the strong stocks I have left and If it turns around and you become more positive on it again I will consider. Thanks for your great service and have a great weekend.

Q: Not a Question Just a Thx.I am not normally a trader but on Aug. 25 I sent an email about SGY and it was trading at $2.00 then (the same as what it sold the asset to TORC for in April.%5 i helped me pull the trigger and I bought. I thought the risk reward looked good so I bought and have since sold at 2.75 plus 1 divy (still holding a 2% position).I think PC will manage the company thru this downturn so I am still holding a position.
Q: hi peter

Q: Given the tight Federal election race, in the event of a NDP or Liberal win, are you aware of any major changes they are proposing to the taxation of dividend or capital gains income? Thanks.
Q: Hi Peter.
Came across this useful article on TFSAs. I wasn't aware of the difference between "successor-holder" and "beneficiary" designations and thought other 5i members might find this of interest.

Q: ok the issue has been priced 65.00 us which translates into about 86.50 cdn, cxr is trading a 2 dollars below issue price, what i am having trouble understanding if the ebita increase is going to be that much greater than the stock dilution when the deal closes, why did the stock go down so much and why did cxr price it here. secondly i know you like cxr and think the selloff is a bit overdone, would you buy more at 84.50.it seems most analysts see this stock going to 125 in short order. dave
Q: What do you think of CXR at this level. What would you suggest as a good entry point. By my math it's now trading around 12 times 2016 earnings? Thx Scott

Q: Hi 5i,
Subject to the usual reservations about it not being a stock that you cover and being a US stock as well, what do you think of Western Digital’s situation at present? I’ve held it for a long time because I like data storage as a longer term theme but, if you look at a multi-year chart on it, it seems to have run all the way to the top of the mountain and nearly half-way back down. The result appears to be an increasingly significant dividend yield (2.8%) and an increasingly attractive P/E (11.6x according to my online broker). But are they likely to run into shrinking earnings that would call both of those measures into question? Are there other measures that may indicate I should be re-examining the investment thesis at this point? Thanks!
