Q: MSFT- I held this one for a while and sold at $32 due to poor Q results and negative street view. It has steadily moved up to over $38 on what news? Announced to-day a deal to share software code through another tech company the ramifications of which I have no idea going fwd as it pertains to MSFT's EPS. I'd like to own a software stock and I am wondering if I should wait on this one as it pays a decent dividend with room to go higher??

Q: Hi,
I have a double-weighting in Goldcorp (G) and notice it is relatively volatile in price. Does it make sense to try to hold something to counter-balance this in my portfolio? Or should I just accept a bit of volatility in 10% of my stock portfolio? If it makes sense to counter-balance what would you recommend? The rest of my portfolio consists of 5i model portfolio stocks (except the B or lower rated ones). Thanks! Michael

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
I came across a company that reminds me of Wilan, its called Vringo, VRNG. They have a couple patent cases which could turn out good for them leading to potential one time rewards and also royalty revenue streams. At current prices would the risk reward be favourable if at all?

Q: Hello Peter and team,

After reading Lowell Murray's "The Single Best Investment - Creating Wealth with Dividend Growth", my wife prefers dividend payers in her RRSP, but would like to emulate the model portfolio as much as possible.

As an example, if she is uncomfortable with TOU, what would be a suitable dividend paying O/G substitute? WCP or VET or ? What about substitutes for the other non-dividend payers in the portfolio?

Thanks so much for your advice.

Q: Just a comment to Edward re: CDN/US citizenship - the US treats a TFSA as just another account, and all income is taxable by the IRS, even though exempt by the CRA. Not sure there is any reason for a US citizen to hold a TFSA. If there is any advantage to a TFSA under these circumstances, I would appreciate hearing it.
