Q: Peter; Could you comment on Baytex at these levels? Seems ok for yield and management but is the payout % in line? Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter
Just read your blog on etf's. Tried to "post a comment" to the article but the site wouldn't let me, so, sorry, thought I would post my comment here. While I agree with much of what you say, I was a bit suprised by your negative inclusion of HAC as being an example of etfs having gone too far. This is an etf which has consistently beat the tsx over its three year history (it is up 20-25% over that time). Though not being one, I was also somewhat taken aback by your apparent slur on farmers. While it may be that the theory of seasonal investing is not in keeping with your beliefs, I would respectfully suggest that you consider the returns of the etf, the reputation of technical analysts such as Don Vialoux and Brooke Thackery and the distasteful suggestion that only a "farmer" would invest in such a fund.
I'm very sorry Peter to be posting such a negative comment, I have enjoyed your analysis and commentary for years and I continue to do so.

Q: Re: LOY. In follow-up to Bruce's question from Oct.25, I noticed that today over 7 million shares were traded (average around 150K)- though it closed even for the day. You indicated you have been watching the stock. It would appear someone made a large commitment. Any thoughts on todays activity and what it may mean for the future of the stock? Thanks.
Q: Hi Peter & Co...I have been holding Aurizon Mines (AUZ)for a couple of years and am down 40%. If you are expecting the gold sector to be strong going forward is this stock worth holding for a recovery or should I look for another stock in the gold space. Also, I want to say thank you very much for your excellent advice. My stock portfolio, with 5i, that I started 9 months ago is up 16%, not including dividends...stellar!!

Q: Hi Peter and team,
My question is about warrants. If you buy warrants they are definitely more risky than the underlying stock. Is there a possibility that management can call these before expiry date? In such cases if the market price is say 50 cents, can they call it at a lower price? In particular if you buy warrants on a commodity company, what should you be careful about. I recently bought some warrants for EDV and I am thinking is it a safe bet. Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and team. I would like you your take on ZAR. I was quite impressed with their presentation at the Sept 12 Peters event. They seem to have some good capability in enhanced oil recovery.

Q: Today, the WTI price is 86$ per barrel or so. I believe you are confident the price of oil is more likely to be over 100$ in a not too distant future. If that is so, how can that be reconciled with the current glut of oil, and what scenario do you see ahead ? Also, WTI is a standard not always achieved with the current quality of Canadian crude. Canadian Western Select crude is sold at a much lower price, while light oil crude or synthetic crude are usually much closer to the WTI price. Which Canadian oil producers are likely to fare better in such environment ?
Q: I've read your report about FCR and it looks like a very good company. I'm looking to buy it. On one hand it looks like an excellent time to buy right now as the RSI is around 30, on the other hand it seems to be in a downtrend for the last couple of months. What is your opinion on whether or not this is a buy right now. BTW, love the site, very informative, I just hope you don't run out of patience answering these crazy questions all day!
Q: Good morning, Peter:
I have a couple of big losers in my RRSP account. I think they may have bottomed out as there has been little change in their share prices for the past several weeks. I am reluctant to sell them because I can't claim a capital loss on my tax return, but then, there's also a lost opportunity cost if I hold on and hope for a rebound which may or may not occur. What would you do? Thanks and kind regards.

Q: I am trying to decide between two ETFs for tax sheltered account -CPD or PFF. I'm leaning toward the American fund, looks like better technicals. Would it be better to wait until after the US election is finished before investing? What are your thoughts please and thanks.

Q: Hi, I am wondering if the interests charged on margin accounts are tax-deductible?
Q: Hi Peter, I'm interested in preferreds and wonder about the rate reset feature. Recently AGN issued 6 year rate reset preferred @4.5%. The reset in 6 years is equal to the 5 year Canada yield plus 2.94%. Do you think that yield potential will be sufficient to keep the preferred trading at about par in the interim?
