Q: Dear Peter,
I hold shares in NOV (National Oilwell Varco). The Co has announced a restructuring. Would it result in negative tax implications for a canadian investor? Do you know when the restructuring will take place? Should I hold or sell for reinvestment elsewhere? Thanks. I appreciate the great service.

Q: Hi, Peter
I frankly do not like the way Dundee International is behaving. I worked around financial statement and listened again yesterday to their conference call. Some questions regarding renewals, selling some assets did not helped my feeling. I sold this morning after buying a very small position.
What is your take?
Thanks again.

Q: Hi, after firing my wife's financial advisor, I transferred all of her securities to a brokerage account (BMO). I have trimmed the weeds (there were a lot) and am left with one flower - PMT.DB.D which was bought at $72 and now fluctuates around $96. I'm not familiar with this security and am attempted to sell it and reinvest in a growth stock in her TFSA. Can you share your thoughts on this security, whether to hold or sell, and what I could replace it with in her TFSA?
Thank you.

Q: Hello team:

I owned some PWF which I accumulated between 25 to 28;
now it is over $ 35, I enjoyed the nice dividend
I recently added some SLF (half position) so that if interest rates slowly increase, the life co would offset the loss of value of the bonds in my income porfolio
Which Life co would you add to PWF and SLF ?; Thanks!

Q: I think one question, one topic is a reasonable suggestion. We do not want this site to become a free for all forum, else Peter & crew would have no time to search and create report on new names. I believe we all signed up to find a new multi bagger. So please allow these folks to do their thing.
PS: I plead guilty for taking advantage of numerous questions in the past.

Q: Hello 5i and Members:
wading into the "questions" comments: one question per person should be enough, imho. But members, c'mon, please use the feature to search by symbol: if the company you're asking about has been asked about 3 times yesterday (this has happened), then surely you shouldn't have to ask again. Go back over all the questions and you should get a precise position of 5i's views. Peter, possibly when this type of thing occurs, you could direct the person more often than you do. Being a nice guy has to stop somewhere (parents will understand this!).
Great service, great price and some very good (great) questions. There are also the other kind lol.
