Q: I am looking at deploying some of my trimmed Amaya profits within my TFSA into a new small / micro cap name. It will be a small weight in a fairly balanced portfolio of mostly mid and large cap 5i endorsed companies. I have 20% of my portfolio earmarked for a basket approach of riskier names (ie. SYZ, LSI, MCR, E, WAN, ATHN etc).
Going through past comments, it seems you are positive on all of PRW, CXS, KLS, HWO and QST. For new cash deployment today, can you rank your top 5 small / micro cap companies to buy today (whether its the 5 listed here, or any others)? What is your absolute favourite right now?
As always, thank you.

Q: INKM is the SPDR Income Allocation ETF for U.S. funds. It "seeks to provide total return by focusing on investment in income and yield-generating assets." It holds about 20 SPDR etf's with global representation, and offers a dividend yield of over 3%. It's only about a year old with total net assets of 100M. It looks good to me for my U.S. funds but I don't see it mentioned on 5i and wonder if you would make your initial comments on it. Thank you.
Q: hello Peter:
last question about 2 months ago, last report in 2012.
PKI: I have a small postition (about 2% of portfolio) and was looking at deploying some cash. How does this look from a GARP perspective, and how does it look to you from your perspective? The dividend is attractive and I am of the belief that dividends will mean more and more going forward, in a lower growth environment. Do you agree with the latter statement?

Q: Do the new rules surrounding the Temporary Foreign Worker Program have impact to your rating on Tim Hortons (THI)? The key risks in the report cite "almost no labour or wage rate risk", so I'm not sure if such a change was accounted for. Most of the Tim Horton restaurants I've been to are almost all foreign workers and there was certainly about a $2 impact to the share price when the news came out. Is this change big enough to impact the overall business and stock outlook?
Q: Please help me to decide which stock 0r stocks should I buy now or later at the right price. The 3 stocks are listed on US market and they are: MA.us, V,us, AXP,us. Your advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you
