Q: This will interest other members holding $GSY. It's not short sellers. I'm told that some employees sold about 2M dollars of shares now that the "buying/selling window" is opened, but a fund picked them up within 30 minutes at $18. Also 4 insiders have bought the stock recently at 19.50 in the public market.

Q: Hi, I'm interested in adding private equity to my portfolio for diversification purposes. I was thinking 5 percent of the porfolio. Is this an okay percentage?

Q: Hi, I sent in a question a few months ago asking for a few gold stock names for my portfolio. I haven't bought them yet And have decided id rather buy a gold etf as its easier to manage.

Q: Can you comment on Lightwater Partners short of CGX.
Hass indicated on Bnn that they feel it's over valued and that you can buy similar US exposure at half the price with better prospects.

Q: I'm following your sector suggestions for my income portfolio.
I have all sectors bought but Telcos and Cons staples. The Telcos are trading high right now so I'll buy them lower. I'm puzzled with the 15% Consumer Staples for an income portfolio. Except for NWC the average yield is in the 1.30% range and they are trading high in their range. I'm considering omitting the Staples and replacing them with another sector or increasing another sector. The sectors you suggested with their percentages are as follows. Utility 15% Industrial 10% Con Disc 10% Energy 5% Financial 20% Materials 5% Info Tech 5% Health 10% Telco 10% unfilled.
Please provide your comments. Thanks.

Q: From Ryan's blog on Feb. 29 he suggested taking a full position in Canexus or a half position in CUS and half position in SPB. Would you still make this call given the share appreciation of both stocks since your blog. If yes, which would be the better buy. Would SPB a good buy on it's own as it has a nice dividend
