Q: Hi Peter,
I am sure WSP holdings will move higher given their earnings, and stantec may move a lot lower with their miss. However, I am thinking of selling wsp and add to stn. Is this wise for longer term hold for stn? Constellation moves 20-30 per day. Do you think it is simply trading eventhough it is thinly traded stock. Fairfax is having challenges lately. I am thinking long term hold. Any comments and Concordia seems to have risen too fast in a year. Is this something to worry about and finally Currency Exchange is flat. Any comments. Much appreciated for your advice.

Q: I purchased this as an IPO at $10. I am down 18%. I earn $227 monthly as a dividend. I am now getting into the 'bored syndrome' . Do you reccommend I hold or sell?

I was thinking of replacing part with Peller, part with Fiera (FSZ) and top up my BIN.

I hold all of your portfolios in the reccommended allocations.

If you reccommend I sell and buy the other 3 in total or in part, should they go into an RRSP or not? My DIR is not registered.

Would appreciate your input.

I'll hang up and listen to your answer :)

Q: I've been waiting for a pullback to buy MIC-N and now it's happened, but it's been prompted by its latest earnings release. Could I please get you to look over the earnings and tell me what you think. Is it a good time to buy or not, and what the heck is "underlying proportionately combined free cash flow" that they focus on in their headline number? They must use the same "simple" accounting system as Brookfield Group.

Q: Hi,
I do not understand why you include BEP.UN in your income portfolio.
This is what I read on Disnat :
P/E Ratio 145.27
Earnings/Share $ 0.26
Dividend/Share $ 1.66

The income is great, but the payout ratio seems unsustainable. Is the capital safe? Can you comment?
Thanks

Q: Could I get your opinion please on Keyera's 2Q earnings. They sound good, and include a 9% dividend increase, however the EPS is down which seems to be affected by a number of non-cash charges. This always worries me. Thx Scott

Q: Hi
I am looking into getting into the stock market. I have invested in stocks in the past but currently don't hold any stocks. I'm 25 years old, have a long term horizon and a medium high risk tolerance,
I have about 10K to start investing with and am looking for the best way to diversify and also get into the stock market again. I hold GICs already.
I was thinking about starting off with the stocks in the balanced portfolio and from there (as i am able to save some more money) pick a few other key names,
What is your opinion of this idea, do you think if I start with those stocks in the balanced portfolio at the current prices is that a good start?
Thanks
Chris

Q: Another article on PHM in the Globe and Mail and again you've provided a negative quote which they've included. I'm dissapointed that you are adding to the negative sentiment on this stock which is in your growth portfolio and which many of your members have purchased, especially when the fundamentals of the company are still good.

Q: For someone who needs income to live on in retirement, does it really matter whether you own dividend stocks or growth stocks? I have heard proponents of both, but some say that whether a company pays out dividends to shareholders or reinvests for growth, the long term return to the shareholder is similar. Is it just a matter of higher volitility for growth stocks, but the end result is the same?

Thanks,

Q: I cannot find any information on Home Capital's site about the geographical breakdown of their mortgages. Finally I found a Seeking Alpha article suggesting that about 3% of their loans are oil patch related and that the majority of their loans are in Southern Ontario and in the GTA specifically. Is this correct and where might this information come from so I can get more detail? Thank-you.
