Q: Each day I check Member Question to see if a stock that I hold is being written about. Is it possible for 5iResearch to have software that has a database of stocks that are of interest to each member. Then when that stock is mentioned in Member Questions, an e-mail notice would be sent to the individual client to inform them that a stock of interest to them is being mentioned. I believe such a program would be very useful to 5iResearch members & complimentary to the services 5iResearch provides.

Q: Could I get your opinion on averaging down. I owe 10000 shares of Sherritt that I bought at $7/share. I am considering purchasing an additional 500 shares at $4.5/share to bring my average cost down. Is this a wise choice or a losers game. Thanks.

Q: There was an article in the paper today suggesting that Home Capital Group be shorted. The thesis is that the housing sector in Canada will be weak going forward and HCG will suffer. I just bought some after looking at it, and seeing positive comments from you and Jason Donville. I was also planning to purchase more in the next couple of weeks. Should I question my timing on this?

Q: Hi Peter
Glacier Media GVC is trading around $1.60 it pays a 5.00% yield.Book value from what i see is $4.20 a share, what I'm concerned about is the Intangibles which are listed as 395 million, this is a huge amount for such a small market cap stock is it not? would this also be considered goodwill?.Have i taken a big risk purchasing this stock here.?
Thank's Gord

Q: Dear Peter and the team,

I have lost 30% on G so far as I bought it at 41.50 and it is now 29.00. I have a small portfolio and Goldcorp is about 4% of my holdings.

Do you think I should buy some more now or wait.

Thanks and keep up the great job guys!

Q: Hello Team, I am thinking about adding RPI.UN (Richards Packaging Income) to an RESP account. I like it because it is not very volatile and has a great yield. The time frame for the RESP is about 2-3 years before the funds are used, so I do not want anything too risky in there. The other stocks in this account presently are BCE and TD which are performing nicely, but I would like to have something else in there as well. What are your thoughts on this? Thanks

Q: HI 5i I just noticed True North Apart. TN.UN has jumped considerably in price. I bought it 3 months ago so the jump looks great, but is it real? My account still shows I have the same number of shares.
