Q: Although I don't mind shopping at Sears (SCC), I wouldn't want to invest in it. How's their valuations? Is it just competitors beating them now and eventually Target?

Q: I would appreciate any input you can provide regarding fixed income holdings the current environment. I currently hold short term corporate bonds via RQA and RQB. However, the yield to maturity on these products seems quite low to me (1.45% & 1.82% respectively). My time horizon is 15 to 20 years at least.

Q: I am a long term holder of SU - Suncor. It has not done much over the last few years and with Canadian oil prices so low, and not looking like they will rebound unless a pipeline is approved, is it time to get out of SU and into something outside of Canada that gets world price for oil - such as PMG or Ithaca or Husky or something else? Your thoughts.

Q: I want to create a financial section of my portfolio. Somewhere between 15 and 20 %. I have been considering adding BMO and NA which are trading at 10 and 8 times earnings and yielding 4.3 and 4.66%. I think a good entry point would be a yield of 5%. Could you comment on the portfolio percentage, stock choices {are there better ?} and entry prices ?
Thanks Garth

Q: Hi Peter and Team, follow-up to STO question. If you recommend selling STO into strength, then I was thinking of using some of the proceeds to averaging down with the cash, into Pinecrest, PRY? Yes/No? Average cost of PRY is about 2.50. Any further thoughts on PRY, and why its share price continues to drop still? They received an easy 12.5M from STO!
Thanks, Hussein

Q: Do you have any knowledge and input you can provide on Petrolia Inc (CVE:PEA)? Their web site can be found at http://www.petroliagaz.com/index_en.php. They are a small oil and gaz company, drilling for oil in Quebec. They hold a large number of licenses, access to quite a bit of land and have an influential investor (the Caisse de depot) on their side. They are supposedly getting closer to the production of oil. The stock is down quite a bit since its recent high. Any comments, something to consider,...or is this probably a pure gamble at this time? Thanks.

Q: Hi peter,
just wondered what your team thinks of copper junior AMERIGO RESOURCES INC (ARG: Toronto), yielding 6.5%.
The American housing industry seems to be recovering, & in view of the shortage of new copper discoveries I think that it may not be a bad stock for 2013 ?
Best wishes,
Paul.
