Q: Hello 5i staff. I sure appreciate this fine service. I am a 61 year old aggressive investor. I have 10% of my portfolio in fixed income. At about $60k the fixed income portion is divided as follows. Sixty five percent in 5 high yield vehicles, FAP, TRH.UN, DYN9105, PHN280 and ATL908. Twenty five percent in corpoate bonds rated A and BBB, the rest in covertable debentures. With the prospect of rising interest rates should I sell any of the bond funds and switch into quality stocks? Thanks, Frank

Q: I am over diversified in my portfolio with over 40 stocks. Therefore I am trying to consolidate correlated holdings in the same space down to one name. I have three small cap E&P dogs in the form of Long Run Exploration (LRE), Torc Oil and Gas (TOG) and Gran Tierra Energy (GTE). All these names combined have declned to the extent that they now comprise no more than 2% of my portfolio.

As someone on the brink of retirement I am looking for some income while the junior oil and gas space treads water. Could you suggest one name I could consolidate into, out of these three? Or a completely different name in the same space with a bit of income.

Q: Just renewed for another year...your service is helpful and very cost effective for the average retail investor. I believe that oil prices are going to rise over the next year and would like your opinion on a couple of suggestions for oil stocks? Perhaps a growth and a dividend paying option. Thanks.

Q: When looking at prospective investments with respect to WIN and WCP, and even assuming that WIN is on the right track with the BT deal, is it fair to conclude, looking 5 years back up to now, that all in all, choosing one or the other is right ? If so, for peace of mind for the long term, is WCP, and its generous dividend, somewhat safer ? In other words, WIN might provide more sparkling, but WCP might better provide the goods. On the other end, WIN is a smaller company and a take over target, while WCP looks like a steadier performer. It's almost a toss. Makes sense ?

Q: What is your rating on ATP? That’s what I’m interesting in knowing now! Are you preparing a brief update on ATP's business strategy, cash flow, dividend etc. in light of the recent stock news? Your stock rating and analysis helps me to make an informed decision on whether to buy or not to buy a stock, but the follow-up coverage appears vague when the time comes to helping me make an informed decision to sell or not to sell. Are you trying to cover too big a universe (i.e. answering ALL questions on every stock) and overlooking coverage of the 5i stocks you've previously rated? Perhaps I am a confused on the 5i service objective? Please clarify. In closing, I appreciate the work you do. Larry

Q: i sent in a question regarding TSL about 2 to 3 weeks ago and have not had a response yet. it was noted that from Jan 27- Feb 03 answering question would be restricted.my other question today is that you had 4 yes four questions regarding TBE. the questions were mainly regarding events of the last 24 hours which caused drastic price drop for TBE. so here i'm waiting maybe close to 3 weeks to have a question answered and it would appear that 4 people had their questions answered in less than 1 day.and further more should the 4 questions be group together and answered as one ???????? norm
