Q: I am not certain that you received my email: I noticed that at least two other members' questions had gone astray last week, and am wondering if the same happened here.

My request was, roughly, as follows:

1. Would you be able to provide a preferred comparison of AIG and MET: wondering if either one of these is a good play for insurance exposure, or would you recommend a Canadian
life-co over either one of those?

2. XEG: I have been simply "breaking even" on this one for the better part of 18 months and would like to switch to something with at least "some" growth in the energy sector. I was thinking of walking away from the ETF and switching to CNQ perhaps. What would be your opinion?

Thanks very much!

Q: Hi Peter,

You like EFN for certain reasons but it is stuck in a range for quite some time now. Their current PE ratio is way high compared to the others. They are reporting on the 13th. Do you think they can significantly improve upon their earnings this time. How would you rank EFN from among the following list: HCG, SUM, RFC, EH, CFN, EFN and CXS.

Q: Hi Team,
Tourmaline (TOU) share price has been waning since they "missed" in the summer. Unfortunately I'm under water on this one, and seeing red day in and day out wears you down. I an actually thinking of adding to my position depending on your outlook.
When are they due to report, and what's your current insight into the stock?
Should I add before or after the report.
Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter
I see Corby Distilleries changed its name to Corby Spirit and Wine on Nov 07 13. Corby will now trade on the TSX under the symbols CSW.A and CSW.B effective at the start of trading on Tuesday, November 12, 2013.
In your May 09 13 answer to John you state the dividend on CDL.A [Corby Distilleries] is 3.3%, yet my TDWaterhouse site gives a 6.176% yield with a $1.26 dividend. Is the difference because of special dividends and can we count on the 6.18% dividend in the future? The TTM earnings are shown at $0.96 far less that the dividend. Is this a concern? And do you sense a change in direction for the company with the new name and logo?
Thanks... Paul

Q: Doing the math on PLB/ENDP Friday close and US/C$ exchange I get PLB trading at a discount of $1.36 C$ on the deal. Do you think this represents the time value of money as it's not expected to close till well into 2014, as well as the market not assigning much value at all to the Knight spinoff which seems to be a pretty small operation for one obscure disease (my sympathy for all who have experienced leishmaniasis), or do you expect the remaining team at Knight to rebuild something similar to a Paladin in time? Do you still recommend a HOLD on our PLB shares? Thanks for the reco on this, a 5 digit gain so far...J.
