Wondering your thoughts on CSE given conf call and earnings today. Do you still consider this high risk? With The Bristol situation behind mostly behind them can you see any upside in the price over the next year. Is the dividend safe?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

The last question about CVD was on Feb. 19th, and I see that it's still in the 5i income portfolio. I'm in the process of reviewing my RRIF and note that when taking dividends into consideration, I'm still down almost 4%. Going forward, is this ETF worth hanging on to? My RRIF is well balanced with various 5i picks from all of your model portfolios. Income is fine and dandy, but I'm a bit frustrated with the negative growth characteristics of CVD, but of course am willing to wait if you're still OK with this ETF.

Thanks as always for your valued advice.

Q: hey Peter & Team,


I have visited SW HO in Richmond BC and spoke with a few of the people in the know. It is a busy place and no question has it's finger on the M2M pulse for sure. They have no debt and do have some cash on hand. (recently reported @ $88mm)

In speaking with the people employed there, in the short term there are few things which are going to be holding the company back which will probably result in more short term pain. Automotive is looking to slow things down regarding the implementation of technology and are backing off on orders, (for the time being) and there is a few other advanced technologies SW is depending on that may not become a reality for at least a year. So it would not surprise me if we didn't see another significant drop in share value over the next quarter or two.

The good news... these guys are big players in the M2M technology and there is no question this is the future. I just don't think the future is quite here yet.

Personally, I am going to continue watching SW and plan on buying if and when I see the shares drop to around $15.

Post this if you feel it has value and please feel free to add a comment or correct me where you feel so inclined.

Thanks for all you do

Gord

Q: I don't have any agriculture exposure yet and was looking at AFN. It's dividend yield is currently at 7.9%, can you tell me what the payout ratio is and your thoughts on the possibility of the dividend being cut. It reports on Friday and will possibly take a position at that time. Thanks again

Q: I am taking my lumps with LIQ, DCI, CVE and CPG. (Down $24K) Collectively they represent 10% of my RRSP account which has 26 holdings. All dividend payers. I rely on this account as my backup and withdraw every year to maintain my life style.

My question is: Do I ride it out or do I sell them. What should I keep and what should I dump. Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Q: As you said the shorts have increased their weighing in intertain. How can an individual investor compete with the big boys? It seems the game being played is to short everything. I only know how to buy long but it seems every time I buy my stock gets shorted and it drops and I continue to get clobbered. So what is one to do? Just sit and wait for the shorts to cover when good news come out. It is so frustrating.

Q: Hello, 5i. I am wondering if I should get rid of all or some of my bonds because of chronically low interest rates. I am in my mid-fifties and have forty percent bonds which do not look like they are going to do anything. Perhaps some of the bonds could be replaced with REIT's and dividend stocks.
