Q: Hi All! I'm a bit surprised you haven't had a previous question about this co. They have a factory just down the road from you! Yesterday CSIQ had a pretty wild day, in spite of recent quarterly results which seem pretty positive to me. What am I missing? Thanks!

Q: These 4 telecommunication stocks represent 13% of my income portfolio: BCE (4%), MBT (2%), RCI.B (3%), T (4%).
I know you aren't a big fan of RCI.B, but I emotionally feel like I deserve to get something back from Rogers in the form of dividends since I fall out of my chair every month when I see what my household spends with them (cell phones,internet,cable..etc). Wrong approach?

Am I too overweight in this sector? Current sector weighting:

Consumer 3%
Banks 19%
Insurance 11%
Utilities 7%
Telecom 13%
Precious Metals 5%
Energy 15%
REIT 13%
Industrial 10%
XEI ETF 4%

I love this Q&A portion of your site. Thanks

Carlo

Q: Good Afternoon 5i Team. Thanks for your service. It is invaluable.
What is your opinion on entrec? Is it a buy,sell or hold? Last quarter results were OK but stock went down from $1.40 to $.80 in this 3 months. Are there any negative news about this company? My average price is $1.50. Is it worth holding or better to just get rid of. Thanks

Q: In regards to a question from Mike about there being no category for Bio Stocks, I would suggest using the "Search by Symbol" box and enter/type in BIO, but from the drop down below this box select "Search by Text". This will filter any questions/answers that contain the letters BIO within them.

Q: Hi 5i team
I am managing through a direct investing account a 35 year olds small (9K market value)RRSP account. Monthly contributions $100, once or twice a year lump sum contribution. So far made up of CDZ 29%,T 22%,BEP.UN 19%, SYZ 11%, SGY 9% DHX 6%. I have about $500 in cash but cannot decide whether to add to current or perhaps TMA or QST. Also my theory has been to stick to smaller per share valued stocks that you recommend and buy in when have about $500 cash otherwise the fee adds too much cost per share. Is this a good strategy or should I wait until having $1000? What would you recommend that I do with the $500? Thanks K

Q: What do you think of the earnings for Enterprise Group? Revenue up 88% however the company did not earn much money because of poorer margins. They seemed to have an interesting excuse that I have never heard before - that business was booming so much that they had to rent other's equipment and therefore they made less money! Is this plausible and do you think this is just a transient effect? Thank you.
