Q: MSI & AQN
Hi Peter and Team,
I'm building an income portfolio of Canadian dividend payers. I'm considering adding either AQN or MSI with my available cash. These companies are in different industries, completely different structures, etc. However, from a long-term income perspective, which do you think is the better choice? I own some utilities already, and am thinking MSI might add some diversity given the concenttation of Cansdian stocks in few sectors.
Thanks for your comments.

Q: I have been a precious metals bug for most of my investing life. It seems the sector is both fundamentally and technically undervalued and is due for an advance. But of course timing is the BIG thing here. The precious metal sector used to be 100% of my portfolio but because of the volatility I have learned to invest in other sectors. However, I am still waiting for the big spurt. How would you time this supposed advance and how would you recognize it?
Thanks for your superior service.
Rick

Q: Is the sell off of Air Canada gone too far? Reasons being cited are weakening of Canadian dollar. Are there more issues to this steep decline and is this the time to sell and lock in a gain?
Thanks again. John

Q: HLF shares are down around 5% today. The company has announced approval of a "normal course issuer bid (NCIB)". Would the news on the NCIB be the reason for the downturn of the stock price?
Thank you.

Q: There is a junior oil/gas stock Aroway Energy (TSX Venture: ARW) that I would like your opinion on.

I've been following it for a while and in the last quarter the company has turned a profit. What you think of it and what do you think of the sector as a whole at the moment?

Q: A suggestion to other members. I use canadianinsider.com to see if management has faith in their own company. After the AD and EIF problems, I looked at HNL & insiders have been selling since November.

I give these managements an "F" and either sell or avoid buying them.

Q: I notice that Rogers Sugar (RSI) is down again to-day before a conference call to-morrow regarding Q1 results. It is now paying a dividend of 7%. Do you have any insight as to what might be going on, and do you think the dividend is safe? Is the company well managed?
Thanks for your excellent service, Bob.
