Q: Good Evening
Emerson Electric has dropped almost 30% this year. Much more than the US indexes. Is there a company specific reason for the drop?
Is it a good strategy to average down at the current price?
I will appreciate your comments with respect to holding, selling or averaging down?

Q: What do you guys think about kinaxis? I know it has a strong balance sheet and no debt. However, is this one of those stocks that are "always expensive"? I am not sure how fragmented the supply management business is and if kinaxis can benefit from it. Are the profit margins good?
Thanks guys keep up the great work!!

Q: Good Evening
Back on July 10, 2015 you indicated that it is worthwhile to hold on Peyto.I noted that one PEYTO Director sold 744,719 shares from September 14th to September 21st, 2015 at between $30.08 and $28.96.
Peyto represents 1% of my portfolio and the oil/gas sector is around 5%.
Do you still recommend on holding to this stock, selling or averaging down?

I will appreciate your comments.
Thank you

Q: I took my holdings percentage up to 3% this morning from 2.5 mainly because I like the long term potential and even with the dividend increase its payout ratio is still low at 40 to 50%. I was able to get in at $34 which is less then the 34.25 share offering. I do not usually average down but with today's add I am in at $37 per share. I firmly believe that this firm is solid but not correctly named. I think it should drop the "gas" as it misleads investors as to the actual holdings it has. Do you view 3% (and its my only holding in this segment)as too high.

Q: After selling my business I have a large sum of money to invest - this money is the main part of my retirement savings. I plan to retire in 10 years, so my main objective here is safety of principal with moderate growth to surpass inflation. Inflation is my main concern - with anticipated US growth and CDN stagnation I see it picking up in Canada quite soon. By this very reason I am concerned about investing in bonds (incl. real return ones) or TIPS. What kind of allocation (sector, country, stocks vs. bonds) would you suggest in my case? Any creative solutions to hedge against inflation?
Thanks.
