Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi Peter & 5i: Just a comment. I haven’t asked a question for a couple of months but I have continued to read the 5i members’ Q&A daily. I have gained lots of information from others’ questions and your responses. It may seem frustrating sometimes when someone asks a question you really can’t answer or includes a lot of extraneous information that won’t be relevant to your response. I very much appreciate your approach to answering these questions anyway; to try to give people something for their effort, at times despite the way they have asked their question. You are usually able to offer them something useful and sometimes that is useful for me too. If somebody asks for too much or provides too much info, it may just be that they don’t yet understand the turf well enough to ask for exactly what you can give them. But they still need some help and that is the point of their membership; to gain some assistance in an area they have not mastered and to be educated a little bit along the way. Thank you for your patience.

Q: re: BBRY... Just read an article as I have been watching BBRY and Mr. Chen' actions very closely. Things appear to be starting to change and BlackBerry announced some very prestigious customers upgrading to BES10 and to BB10 devices. BlackBerry also announced that BBM will be made available for Nokia's (NOK) X platform and Microsoft's (MSFT) WP8. So now BBM will be available for every smartphone platform. And Ford (F) has officially decided to drop Microsoft and use BlackBerry's QXN solution, to power its Sync mobile-phone multimedia software beginning in 2016. Now that BBRY bankruptcy seems to be in the past and with new management starting to get rolling, the writer posted a target of $18 - $20 for this year.

Can you comment on this and what you think BlackBerry' future looks like in your opinion?

Thank 5i

Q: Not a question but a comment to my fellow members. I have noted a number of member remarks as to a shorting suggestion on a recent BNN telecast. I frequently watch these telecasts as well for different views. I would suggest that members go to the guest's fund web sites for performance of their particular fund as a reference point. I find myself that some guests have better advice than others. I do not find that particular recent guest to be in the more reliable camp.

Q: Good day Peter....This is an amendment/update to my earlier e-mail question about rebalancing a RRSP portfolio. In the e-mail I mentioned "income with steady growth, and on further thought, what I really would like/am aiming for is steady growth. For me,the income/dividends is/are really a fall out/come along with the stocks. (This especially true for the pipelines over the last five years. But it is getting through to me/sinking in from reading your posts and responses that a balanced portfolio is a better practice than just pipelines, financials and REITS.) In a way, for a non-registered account, I would prefer growth companies but for a RRSP, I'm inclined to me more conservative and by that I label it as steady growth. Thanks for provoking thinking for all this........Tom M
