Q: Hi Peter and 5i: Do you have any near to medium-term concerns about Genworth MI Canada (MIC) or Home Capital Group (HCG)? I have over 25% gains in both since buying them last late spring/early summer. They are each 3% current positions in the portfolio. I also have a couple of Canadian banks but I am not overweight financials relative to the broad market. They are in an RSP so there would be no tax concerns related to selling anything. Is this a case where it makes sense to keep letting the winners run? Would it make sense to add to either of them with new RSP money? Thanks.

Q: Is Cervus Equipment(CVL-T) a company you have looked at? Interests in 57 agricultural, industrial and transportation dealerships in Western Canada,N.Z. and Australia. EPS is $1.48 and yield almost 4%. Wondering if it is an over-looked stock like K-Bro Linen?
Thanks, Harold.

Q: Hello
I'm trying to learn more about how companies work. When a company issues shares to raise capital can the shares simply put up for sale on the open market or are they always sold to an investment/finance house? If the former, does the company, at time of issue, have to specify the price of the shares or can it, so to speak, play the market? I'm trying to get a hold on the "dilutive" aspect of share issuance given that shares aren't traded based on their supply (but only their supply at a particular price. Thank you.

Q: Hi, Peter, and thank you for your amazing service to smaller, retail investors.
I am trying to decide between Cineplex (CGX) and H&R REIT (HR.UN)as a possible long-term (3-7 years)purchase. Although they are an 'apples and oranges' comparison would you please give me your preference or are they both overvalued with their higher P/E ratios?
Thanks.
Ed

Q: TBE, Twin Butte, given the news release with the operational problems and guidance what are your thoughts? Would there be much more downside, or would it be oversold now? I had planned on holding for a couple of years.
