Q: Hello Peter & Co,
I have scanned many financial advisors' returns and find that your equity portfolio's returns are up there. Congratulations!
It took me quite a while to replicate that portfolio; I now hold 15 of your 22 stocks + a few in the health/pharma sector.
However, I wonder if you consider "the big picture" in your stock selection process; I'm asking this because I foresee some key catalysts pointing to some additional pull backs (eg. Fed fund rates increasing, Euro zone and Japan weakness, strength of US dollar putting pressure on Emerging economies, prolonged weakness in the Energy and Materials sectors).
I look forward to your response,
Tony

Q: Hi 5i,
I appreciate oil is down materially in H2 2014, but I still scratch my head at SPE's recent performance. The stock came out with a fabolous quarterly update showing current production levels exceed year end targets. The company's management team is top notch and the netbacks are some of the highest in the industry. With all that said, why does the stock continue to fall.
I'm debating taking a loss on SPE and playing a sector with more short term momentum. Do you have any recommendations on particular stocks that you would be adding to today?

Q: Good Morning Peter and Team,
I am slowly but surely moving toward the "Model Income Portfolio" in one account and toward the "Model Portfolio" in a separate account. Different objectives for each account. I have owned PEY since 2010 at about $13 in both accounts. Does it make sense to have PEY and SGY at 2.5% allocations each in my version of the Model Income Portfolio and PEY and WCP at 2.5% allocations each in my version of the Model Portfolio ??? That way I have exposure to half natural gas and half light oil for my energy weightings in each account. As an aside I read Darren Gee's President's Report every month and I strongly encourage other 5i subscribers to do the same. Peyto is one of the most shareholder friendly companies in the energy sector and extremely well run. I would appreciate your opinion of my proposed energy sector allocations. Thank you. DL

Q: Hello Peter
Tim Hortons currently has a direct share purchase and dividend reinvestment plan which is administered through Computershare. My grandchildren hold shares of THI through this plan. If the THI merger with Burger King is approved my grandchildren will have to elect whether to receive cash for their shares or exchange them for shares in the new company, or a combination of both. It is not currently known whether the new company will continue the dividend reinvestment plan. If they elect to receive cash are you aware of any other Canadian company that allows direct purchase of shares and dividend reinvestment for investors who are not already shareholders? The grandchildren's accounts are not large enough to warrant opening brokerage accounts.
Thank you
David

Q: I added to my shares of pne with the recent pullback in energy. Would like to trim shares when shares are up more, thinking this would be my way of generating dividends from the stock.

Q: Hello Peter and team,
A friend asked me my opinion about his LIRA account (which he won't be accessing for about 25 years). For a few reasons he is not interested in transferring to a self-directed account, wishing to keep this part of his portfolio with his financial adviser. She believes that Edgepoint Global Growth and Income (EDG180) is the best option for him. I have never heard of Edgepoint, so after a cursory glance at their website and Morningstar looks fine, I thought I would ask you. Do you have any feedback about Edgepoint as an investment company and EDG180 as a fund that I could share with my friend?
I appreciate the excellent service you provide.
Thanks in advance, Rory
