Q: I am considering buying 2 smaller companies--Input Financial (INP on venture)and Sandvine (SVC). I did a search on previous answers and found them most useful.
However I also use technicals and find that both right now have some extreme readings which normally would indicated they are trading at an unsustainable high.
Is it a reasonable time to take a position, given caveats (especial on Input Financial) which you mentioned in your early January answers?

Q: Hi Peter

I am a new subscriber and I am not sure if I understand the letter grades in a the reports. Do the "A" and "B" grades mean a good time to buy where the "C" grades mean hold, etc?

Is it reasonable to think the higher the grade the more attractive the value to "buy first"? Thanks. Greg

Q: Peter, I have $15,000 to deploy after clearing my own unsuccessful picks from last year. The rest of my portfolio is as follows: purchased recently ACQ, WEF, CGX, ENB, CSU, STN. These picks are all thanks to you ! And I am already up on almost all of them.
Now, what to do with the $15,000 available capital ?
I am after decent dividend, but my main aim is growth, so I can make up for the loss of last year.

Q: In response to the question about using margin to purchase dividend stocks. I suggest looking at interactive brokers who have the lowest margin interest rates I could find. 1.5 to 2.5 percent based on your balance.

Q: I would like to know what is the rule of thumb for evaluating the risk/reward of using leverage to buy dividend stocks in a marge account. For example, buying BCE on margin with a tax bracket of 50%, what would be the cost/benefit of being charged 4,5% interest vs the 5.03% income in dividend from BCE. Finally, is there a link to a calculator where I could plug in specifics and get an estimate of the limits of scenarios. Thanks
