Q: Hi Peter and team:
Just inquiring about your view on Cad-US over the next 3 to 9 months. Appears recently to be in a trading range between 90 to 94 cents. Do you see this as the possible range in the near term and if so what catalysts or negatives are possible to change this scenario?

Your guidance was - "you need to tender your shares to the deal".

Q: Hello can you please give me some insight on these companies. I heard the CEO speak from CNE CANACOL ENERGY and he sees growth into the next few years. BNS has a target of $9.50 and thinks the dividend is safe... is this realistic? My average is $7.52 I am thinking of averaging down??? The other is SAVANNA ENERGY SERVICES..BNS has a $10.00 target on this and thinks the dividend is safe as well. Although they downgraded this one to a Sector Perform... My average is $8.49.. Should I sell these and switch into something else. Your insight is always helpful thank you. Jason

Q: DHX shares have moved up nicely from the time of your report this spring; my broker lists upcoming Q4 earnings estimate as 1 cent (4 analysts) and revenues of $30.7 mm (almost unchanged from last Q) with the big jump in earnings and revenue projected for next Q1. Do you agree with these numbers and what is the short position?

Also who are its peers (broker lists only tiny ones such as ZUM) and does a lot of the potential growth come from the foreign operations where it gets 30% of revenue and what countries does DHX operate in? Thanks, J.

Q: Re: FLOT (US) - Floating Rate Bond
I currently have a large US$ cash balance in my US Trading Acc't which I put into TD's Investment Saving Account (TDB8152) to get at least a little bit of interest while the money sits idle between trades. Would FLOT be a suitable alternative to TDB8152? For instance, how would it compare in safety and yield, and are there any other alternatives to these that you might recommend for idle US$?
Thank you.
