Q: I have an investment in the Global Infrastructure fund (GIF.UN). As luck would have it, it's gone straight down since I purchased it. The yield is 6% so I like that but being down 11% on my capital offsets that value significantly. The Middlefield company website suggests an NAV $2 higher that the current unit price ($11 vs. $9). Is the posted NAV yet catch up with the real value? The top 10 holdings look like good companies to me. I could average down, sell or hold. Not sure at this point what to do. Any thoughts?
Second part question is that I don't healthcare exposure and wondering what you think of Middlefield's new healthcare fund GHC.UN is a good place to invest or would you suggest something else for exposure in this space? What's your opinion of the quality of the Middlefield management to provide a good investment vehicle, stable returns and growth?

Thank you.

Q: You note in recent news regarding Amaya.
"we advise shareholders to do nothing, unless they have a very big position, and then some caution is warranted. There is not enough information to make a sound decision just yet".

So my question is what would you consider a very big position, is this referring to percentage of a portfolio or cash value of the shares?

Q: I've been pondering ATD.B for the last month and have now missed almost a 15% gain. With today's acquisition, is today's price still a good entry point for my RRSP? I do not need the money for another 20 years and I have no consumer stocks in my portfolio.

Q: Hi Peter and Crew,

Seasons Greeting to all.

Not sure if I am missing something, but the future for K-Bro looks to be very bright. I would imagine their cost of doing business is falling (Nat Gas for running the laundry, Gasoline for delivery fuel). Yet revenues could be steady and climbing. Do you see a dividend hike in the near future ? If your 5i rating was not already close to the ceiling, would this be the sort of change (lower energy costs) that would initiate a raise on the rating scoreboard ?
