Q: Any news or opinion on this new nickel play
Thanks

Q: Share price has suffered for a while now: PE about 10, very little debt, low PR , decent ROE -new cycle apparently with 4K TV -can you shed more light on this company as a buy going forward?

Q: Financials are currently 7% weighting in my portfolio (RY, BNS, TD, CIX, MFC, JPM). I have some cash and was thinking of bumping up to 10% weight. I know you like BNS, IGM and SLF. WFC looks appealing but the 30% premium on the USD is concerning to me. Any other recommendations? Looking for something at the middle to lower end of the risk spectrum. Thanks

Q: DCI released an operation update July 15th. Thoughts on the update? How positive will it be for the stock to get a banking license?

Q: Big pop to-day of 12% & I can find no news? Can U shed any light on this hugely mismanage company? I am amazed that their has been no shareholder law suits against this destroyer of wealth.

Q: My time horizon is two years. I want to buy either PLI or PHM. What should I do?

Q: Good afternoon, I would appreciate your comments on our exposure to reits and utilities/infrastructure holdings in view of today's bank rate cut and the anticipated opposite U.S. rate increases. I am 71 and we rely on our investments for almost half our income. Currently fixed income + cash represents 44% of our investments while reits and utilities each 5%. I note in the Model portfolio utilities is 2.3% with no reits and the income portfolio 15% utilities & 6.5% reits.
It seems to me that the canadian bank rate will go up eventually but I've been wrong for years.
Currently our utilities/infrastructure holdings are BIP.UN, PPL, VSN, VNR, BEP.UN & CPX. Which would you recommend trimming, if at all.
You're general comments on our current allocation would also be welcome.
Thanks as always!

Q: With Vermillion dropping to I believe a 5 year and the dividend remaining the same, do you see it as a buy at this time.
Thanks
Jim

Q: with the big drop in share price is home capital a screamimg buy or a value trap
the announcement they made about cutting off brokers was it prudent business decision or an indication of more problems
