Q: Dear Peter
Do you see any particular companies becoming significant buys as a result of the devastation in Alberta and elsewhere the Mid-West in general?

Greatly appreciate you timely insight.

Q: GCL
Hi Peter & Co.
Any recent news (good or bad) on Group Colabor. The only recent thing I have seen was an announcement that their dividend declarations would now line up timewise with their quarterly reports. It seems on big market down-days Colabor does not get hammered as badly, would this indicate it is already undervalued?
Thanks,
John

Q: Regarding IPL.UN this goes back to your comments on Stop Loss points. Following your comments I assessed where I would want a STOP LOSS and removed most. A STOP LOSS today on IPL.UN might have cost an investor dearly.

Thanks for your valuable advice.

Q: Hi 5i If a good quality company pays a good dividend , say 4%
and as this market shows all companies can be pulled down in price will the dividend be affected negatively if the stock drops 15% but the companies fundamentals remain strong ?

Q: Thank you Peter for at least attempting to explain IPL.UN trading. Globeinvestorgold and other newspaper sources seem useless in this context. Cheers, Ken

Q: Hi Peter and Staff,

Love your service ! Have recommended it to my investment club.

Equities are down today. The "correction" is here - and may provide buying opportunities.

My question. I am a believer in seasonality and DRIP programs. One of the most significant recurring seasonal events is the best six months of the market to be in (Late October - Early May).

For a long term buy-and-hold strategy, would it not make sense to participate in automatic DRIP's during the worst 6 months (forced buying during seasonal dips), and leave the DRIP programs and bank the dividends during the best six months, and then use the accumulated cash to re-balance/purchase on good days (like today).

Thanks !
