Q: A broker research report on IPL states that "Our target price ($30) is predicated 75% and 25% on our 2015 and 2016 financial estimates,respectively, as follows: 1) 25% EV/EBITDA multiple of 15.5x, 2) 25% relative dividend yield of
175%, and 3) 50% free cash flow yield of 6.5%. Our target price also incorporates a 2.50% 10-year
Government of Canada bond-yield assumption."
They give IPL (our 8th largest holding) a forward PE of 28X and the others we hold in the Pipeline Sector at lesser weights than IPL - for ENB 23X and ALA 25X though the target prices for the other 2 are positive. We all know that brokers' research reports are intended to get clients to trade but I wonder if I should at least reduce IPL holdings to boost the other 2 especially as the PE numbers are quite rich?
Also do you agree with the research numbers and do you perhaps feel that the sector as a whole is pricey? Thanks, J.

Q: Your opinion please on Husky HSE. Their quarterly seemed OK, but their price continues to drag. Is it time to sell HSE and switch to something else? If so, what would you suggest? I already own CPG, SU and PPY in this sector.
Thank you very much for your thoughts.

Q: Hi guys , great service been in for a year plus and am very happy.
Can you project what will happen to dividend flat and dividend growth stocks if we see a bump up in inflation and a rise in interest rates.To the point are dividend stocks overvalued historically, in the relentless search for yield.

Q: Is it time to sell my junk bond ETF CHB? I watched this video today by Christine Hughes of Otterwood Capital. Seems to make sense:

What's your opinion on this? I have about 10% of my portfolio in CHB. Thanks so much for all your great advice. Not sure what your policy is on posting links, but If it's not cool, just delete it. cheers

Q: Hi Peter and team: what is your latest take on VFX, Virtutone? I know its very small; recently they got some debt financing in place, it seems that this will finally allow them to grow revenue faster. However I'm not sure how it may affect their margins, which they are trying to increase. Do you see their game plan unfolding in a positive way? Or do you think their business plan is flawed?
Q: There is little information I can find on Mainstreet Equity MEQ which has been doing well since you last commented in January. Could you please give us your valuable assessment of the company? Thanks for your advice. I have learned a lot since subscribing to 5iresearch.
Q: Enercare (ECI) Subscription Receipts
As a current shareholder of Enercare (last traded before being halted on TSX @13.91) would you advise placing an 'Expression of Interest' for the "Subscription Receipts" at $13.00? Or is it better to wait until the closing and buy on the open market?

Thanks.
Thanks.
Q: Perhaps you could indulge me with a few suggestions. I have owned TML for ions, but I see insider buying. Should I sell now or perhaps buy more. I have been successful with CWX on buying because of insiders and am up 20% in 2 weeks. Should I sell it now since I see the future 1/4's may be cyclically weaker. I have also owned TMM forever, I am above water but wonder if I should sell and deploy somewhere else. Now that Sentry has put their person on the board do you forsee upside (as in possible merger or takeover)?
I am wondering because CAT remarks have indicated little business in the mining sector, if I should give up on the golds despite the so called good seasonality of the metal at this time. Would you sell the above mentioned positions and deploy elsewhere, and if so what sectors would be appealing. I could add to health, tech,consumer cyclicals, I will await your comments & recommendations. Thank you so much for your objective evaluations, they are very much appreciated.

Q: ASG - Aurora
any chance this company goes out of business? My position is small as I realized it was risky being a new company especially in the sector where it resides. Down a ton now and figure I'll just ride it out... thoughts?
Thanks for all you do

Q: Hi 5i Team
I'm retired and looking to diversify my portfolio. Income and growth have equal weightings and I prefer to hold a quality stock indefinitely. At this time I'm considering Brookfield Infrastructure (BIP.UN)or Stella-Jones (SJ}. I'd appreciate your comments comparing these two companies. Thanks
