Q: CGI Group (GIB.A) has recently had its accounting questioned by Veritias research of Toronto. According to a recent article in the Globe and Mail the analysts there are of the opinion that the recent logica acquistion in the UK is being used imaginatively by the accountants at CGI to artificially inflate future earnings at the company. Nothing illegal is suggested but its rather dubious if true. Any comments?

Q: Hi Peter,
I have a question about FCR. I increased my position in early Aug and it is now about 5% of my portfolio. I also own HR.UN, CUF.UN, and AX.UN, approx. 5% portfolio each. These stocks continue to slide, so I'd like to ask you whether you recommend to hold, sell and cut losses, or buy more for either of these? I am looking for long term growth/income rather than immediate one. Thanks a lot!

Q: Hi 5i,

I've done a bit of desktop work on CMI, but wanted to get your views. I know you've commented on it in the past, so my ask is more around i) what do you think of valuations today ii) the sector in which they operate in iii) management.

Have you ever met management. Are you familar with any of the board members and their affiliations with other companies (good or bad?)

Q: Guy.to has had a nice run of late. I'm up 32%, how much more do you see it going up? Where are the resistance levels, $2.80 or $3.00? I think there will be more upside with the Syria conflict going on pushing people into the safe haven stocks like gold. Do you see the same?

Q: hi 5i'
can you expand on gib.a's homeland security contract benefits, besides financial of course? do you know what the contracts are about. do they mean more great spying on US citizens and probably canadian citizens? that sounds great if that is the case, but are they going to do even more? perhaps more renditions, and sending those "terrorist" types off to cuba prisons with no trial. wouldn't that be fantastic. please tell me more!
