Q: Peter - With the recent price correction within the oil and gas sector, what are your thoughts on Arc Resources (ARX), Tourmaline (TOU) and Whitecap Resources (WCP)? Do you have a preference between the 3 selections or can you recommend another name in this space. I have help CPG in my portfolio for a very long and I am looking to add another position within the sector. Thank You.

Q: http://dividendhistory.org/

Pretty decent website that documents all the dividend increases for companies on the tsx. A little more user friendly and objective (no opinions, just numbers) than the previous website suggested by a fellow 5i subscriber.

On the right hand side of the homepage there is a "symbol search" field. Enter in the stock symbol and the company's name appears. Click on the company's name and you'll get a historic account of the dividend's paid by the company. Very useful i find.

Q: Hello 5i,

this is not a question but a comment regarding websites with dividend increases for Canadian companies.

Go to : http://www.dividendblogger.com/dividend-increases/

Not an endorsement but the only site that has this info that I am aware of.

Thanks for the great site!

Q: I currently hold WPK. Is it worthwhile to switch to CCL.B or just hold on to WPK at this time. Taxes are not an issue.

Q: You have mentioned in the past that it is best to wait at least an hour from the market opening before you start trading in order to get an more accurate read on the market. I was wondering, in the same vein, if the overseas markets give any indication as to the direction the North American markets will take. Do the overseas ones "follow" North America, lead North America or not have any connection at all. For all the reliance analysts put on what happens in China, it seems to me there is almost no connection to what their markets do and the North American ones do.

Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter, as asked by Gordon today I use an app on my iPad called Real Time stock tracker downloaded from the App Store for $9.99. It has many good features to follow your portfolio, the market, has a stock screener and many other good features to give an overview of the market. The main news portion is slanted towards the USA but news for each Canadian stock you enter is specific to that stock. I use it daily to follow the market as an adjunct to my bank investment info and 5i research info. Please note that I do not know how it works or if it is available for other tablets. Stay healthy and keep the cadence high!

Q: I'm the type of investor who looks for stocks of good companies that have hit a rough patch and that everybody avoids as a result. I'm inclined to think that Whole Foods Market (WFM) is just such a company. It continues to generate higher and higher revenues and profits. Yet, its share price has fallen considerably and its P/E ratio is now around 27 (compared to the high thirties last year). Have your thoughts about the company changed since your comment last November?
