Q: Hi team,

What is your rule of thumb for placing an on-stop sell order, besides the obvious objective of
locking in a profit? Would it be a based on a percentage move on the downside? Or is their other criteria you look at? Thanks for your help and the great service you provide.

Q: The S&P500 has been going vertical since Nov 2012, except for the mussing about QE easing. Profits have been slowing and the multiples are expanding. When do you expect a pull back in the US market?

Q: On WXM, the Momentum ETF, the NAV when assessed in May was $8 mm. Now it is $36 mm. Do you consider this still too small and if so at what point would it be deemed to have adequate liquidity? I see the portfolio of 30 names has many components of the 5i model portfolio and I like the concentration of stocks. Thanks, J.

Q: Hello 5i Team .
CSCO since August has been in a slow downward trajectory. What is possibly causing this. Is there some kind of seasonality affecting the stock at this time or is it something else such as future earnings? What is the potential if any over the next quarter or two? Is Cisco a buy, sell or hold? Thanks so much!

Q: Badger Daylighting (T.BAD) announced the acquisition of Fieldtek for $19.2M today. From the release, "The purchase price reflects a multiple of approximately four times Fieldtek's trailing 12 months normalized EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization)". This would therefore add approx $4.8M to BAD's annual earnings. Roughly speaking then, how many EPS would that add to BAD's annual EPS? Thanks.

Q: With respect to Betty's question below on CGI, I think this sell off is simply because of the increased scrutiny CGI will be facing due to the poor roll out of Obamacare?? Recent article today in the Globe about it. This story does not seem to be going away any time soon, and rightfully or wrongfully, CGI's name will be run through the mud, both for the site STILL crashing, and the huge cost of the program. Obamacare will obviously be debated heavily over the next 3 months... referances to the poor roll out will be made by everyone, and CGI will be the one tied to it. Personally? I think it's just a good opportunity for those not it, to get in, but I'm a shareholder so take that with a grain of salt. Just my 2 cents.
