Q: I own too much and it is still falling... at 80 cents now. I just don't understand why that call would cause a 50% drop... it wasn't that bad IMHO. Is something else going on? Should I sell?

Q: A family member asked for some advice on what to do with sinking shares of Cenovus, in order to preserve capital, after a 50% loss. In the medium term, I thought it might be safe to park the money in Boralex, BLX, with no excessive volatility, and a decent yield, and showing some signs of growth. He would like to recapture some of its losses, since this is within an RSP. Something relatively "safe" but still growing. What are your thoughts? Would this be a wise choice? Any other suggestions would be most appreciated. Thank you, as always.

Q: I sold my position on ENB (made a 17% profit)and purchased half positions in Fiera and Ag Growth..I plan to repurchase ENB after the utilities and commodities sector improves. Because my thinking was FSZ and Ag have more chance of growing in the short term of the next 1 to two years. Do you agree with this approach?

Q: Hi Peter,

After reaching a new high several weeks ago, Boyd seems to be dropping quite steadily including today. I would expect that they would benefit from growing operations in the us but is this a general reaction to everything paying a dividend or did I miss some report or analyst downgrade on the stock.

Thanks

Q: so everyone's favorite company took it on the chin and convalo and inspira went down in sympathy with phm.
dalsin and greene did everything right and the street loved them, then they made a huge misstep selling shares, not being forthcoming with the market, appointing new ceos, putting some shares into a health fund. The first bad news is never the last bad news.please comment. dave

Q: Can I have your comments on the recent decline. Is it an over-reaction to HCG? If HCG is dumping brokers, couldn't SCB be picking these brokers up? Overall thoughts on the company as well.

Thanks,
