Q: Peter:

What is your thought about Avante Logixx (TSXV: XX). Yes it is very small company in the security space, but they have had a remarkable turnaround to profitability and date 36% of their revenues are recurring. They also have good balance sheet. They are like junior Alarmforce.

Q: Could I get your opinion on selling OSF.UN (Oil Sands Fund) and replacing it with HLP.UN (Health Lease Properties). My portfolia is over 20% energy with 0% Real Estate. I only carry dividend paying stocks and these 2 have similar yield but, OSF.UN is small cap with small trading volume and moving sideways.
Thanks for the great service.

Q: Thanks for the great service you provide!

I am impressed with the simplicity of your rating system -- the A, B, Cs of investing, as it were, is a pleasure to adopt in choosing companies for investing.

I am interested in what criteria you use in order to give your ratings -- what distinguishes an A stock, for instance from a B+ or B-? I'm assuming it's a combination of P/E and debt loads and all sorts of wonderful fundamental things, but do you have a set criteria that breaks the companies into different categories?

(If that information is posted elsewhere on the site, I haven't found it, and would appreciate being pointed in that direction.)

I am very pleased I joined 5I research as it provides me with a wonderful opportunity to consider companies I never would have given a second look at, thanks to your system ratings.
