Q: Since I have not been a subscriber for very long, I missed out on the big price increases in BAD, BDI and ACQ and I am sure many others. Can I expect that AYA could possibly be as successful as the former three. I know they are in an entirely different sector (gaming) but is it in the realm of possibility all things being equal and everything goes right. I never seem to know when to sell and most often I sell too early but when I do not sell, my stocks seem to fall. I never seem to get it or out at the right time. So I am being disciplined and not selling AYA just because it is up huge in just a few days. Thanks. I am loving your newsletter.

Q: Hi Peter,

My condo is for sale; Any thoughts on where/how to invest the proceeds in the most tax efficient way? Right now I have a decent income. Should I still be in dividend paying stocks/etfs? Are growth stocks too risky at this point? Thanks for any ideas!

Q: Hi Peter and 5iResearch team,
Can you please provide an update on Hewlett, HPQ-N. I would appreciate your analysis on its progress with respect to its turnaround strategy, valuation and would you buy it. It was highly recommended by Lorne Steinberg (?spelling) on BNN this morning. He also highly recommended Cisco, CSCO-O. Do you prefer Cisco over Hewlett at this time, or neither for a LT strategy? Thank you. Linda

Q: Hi Peter and team
My question is on Bankers Petroleum BNK. My half position is now almost a full position due to the run up in price. I'm tempted to sell or at least take partial profits but my broker (TDW)has a 12 mo. target of $8.50. Or instead, should I be adding to it at this level as it seems to be finally gaining some traction with investors. What is your analysis of this co. over the next 2-3 years?
Thanks, Gerry

Q: Greetings: I have read countless articles and books on asset allocation, most of which have a different twist on AA. What is your expert opinion on AA? What % equity,fixed income, and cash and also what do you consider fixed income? Some consider REITs and prefs fixed and some consider only bonds,GICs fixed. Considering the current environment which way would you "tilt" the portfolio and by how much? Thanks Ron

Q: Hello 5I,
I would like your thoughts on Taseko Mine (TKO). TD has recently published a report, on world copper supply. They feel that there may be a price movement higher (based on falling inventories) and have named TKO as a way to leverage that movement.

Obviously speculative; would like your opinion.

Cheers,
Bob Ahearn

Q: It seems to me that base metals miners (Teck, Hudbay & First Quantum Minerals) have been showing positive momentum for the past 2 weeks and the price of copper has been showing some strength. Do you agree? Do you feel China is recovering? It has now been about 4 years since property values first began to decline in China (according to my sources and I have been to China and spoken to some Chinese bankers and pension fund managers). That seems a little long for a decline in such a dynamic economy as China.

Q: Hello Peter
I recently sold a large Ontario bond that was yielding 4.4% and need to replace it with very secure dividend yielding equities in the 4% yield range. I have already bought some Fortis FTS and a small amount of Bonterra BNE. Now I am thinking of adding a bank and I see Commerce CM and National Bank NA are the cheapest banks and both have P/Es just over 10. The yields are both 3.97% and 3.98% respectively. I see Laurentian LB yields 4.3% but at a P\E of 11.6 and is presumably less secure.
When is CM likely to raise it's dividend?
I am inclined to choose CM and I would appreciate your advice and comments on which bank to choose and why.
