Q: Peter & 5i, please include the closing price of the stock you're discussing for reference and context. This is time-saving as sometimes I may not log in until weeks later. Thanks.
Q: I would like to add BNS to my portfolio, but it is at its 52 week high. Do you still recommend buying it at this price? Or should I wait for a pull back? Also, BCE has been rated a hold by some analysts. Any idea why?
Q: Question about DHX valuation. I am considering initiating a position but am unsure of its current valuation relative to its growth rate or historical valuation range. The stock is up 30% since the last 5i report only two months ago and 100% in the past 12 months. Is the current valuation relatively high, low or about average for this company?
Q: Good morning 5i Team. Would you please explain something to me. ESL closed on the TSX yesterday at $35.80, it shows in our portfolio closing at $34.40. Why the difference? I suspect it is after hours trading, where can I check this out. Thank you.
Q: I would like to add a smaller energy company to my portfolio mix, aiming for a bit more growth potential and I have narrowed my search to Cequence Energy (CQE) and/or Delhi Energy (DEE). Would either of these two warrant a 5% position in my growth portfolio and why? Alternatively, with companies such as these, is it better to do 2.5% in each? I am pretty fully diversified across 6 sectors, with fairly equal weighting, and wanted to start adding some "torque" to the mix. Thanks, as always, for your exemplary service!
PS I hope Peter's surgery went well, and that soon he will be able to "ride like the wind" on his cross-country trek.

Q: Is it too late to buy SCL? I started watching this company in early February, and was trying to pick up shares just below $40 but it never got to my purchase price. I have been watching it go up higher and higher ever since, and now it is over $60, that would be a 50% gain had I been able to buy at my (stubborn) price of below $40.
How strict on purchase price should I be when I decide I like a company and want to buy its shares? Should I be rigid and stick to my pre-determined price, or should I just buy at market price once I decide to acquire a position in a company (with a minimum of a 1 year hold)?
I still like SCL, and wish I had purchased it when I made the decision to buy some shares. Should I just buy SCL now at $60, or give up on it since it has had such a large run up, and find something else I like?

Q: Should I liquidate my portfolio (which is largely blue chip, high-yielding Canadian equities) and buy it all back if/when (i.e. when) the market corrects?
Q: Can you comment on TAO.to and it's release on production and revenue increase? You have commented on it in the past and wanted to see better numbers. Did the numbers improve enough for you to consider it as less risky? Thank you.
Q: One of the key points you stress when evaluating a company is the management. With respect to SGY you state "management has built several successful companies before"; and with respect to DHX you state "DHX management has done it all before at prior companies, which they grew and sold".
Can you expand more on these prior successes. What successful companies did SGY's Paul Colborne build? What companies did DHX management grow and sell?

Q: I was wondering if you could comment on the value you see in Or. I'm not sure if I completely understand what this stock is all about. Would it be considered to be as risky and volatile as many gold stocks? Will it move up and down in step with other major gold stocks? Thank you.
Q: In my various trading accounts, I have:
ABX, AGU, AVO, BEP.UN, CGX, CSH.UN, DHX, EFN, ESL, G, SJ, SGY, TCK.B, & WCP
My losers include ABX (significantly), G, and TCK.B
My problem is that I haven't done very well in my non-registered account and this is where ABX resides. If I have a tax loss, I don't think I have very many gains to counter it.
G and TCK.B are in my RRSP and TFSA respectively, but I think you are fairly positive on these. Should I sell ABX and hope I have enough gains later in the year to balance this out with? Also, am I diversified enough?
Thank you SO MUCH for this service!

Q: Hi Peter, have excess cash in RSP account and wondering about WIN/CCL.B/MDA/DHX. Do you have a preference from these? I have a 10 year time frame and own most of the more growth oriented stocks in the model portfolio. Thanks for Amaya and all the wonderful advice. Bill Y.
