Q: Merry Christmas Peter to you and the team at 5i and continuing success in 2013. LNV? Longview is on a relentless trip south and its latest status report is middling at best. Is the slide overdone through tax loss selling or has this outfit disappointed to the point the stock should be dumped?

Q: I purchased ECA two weeks ago and the share price has gone down 5% since my purchase. Now with the Petrochina deal in the works, how do you think it will affect the price (short term and long term)? ECA is 10% of my portfolio and I also hold CNQ and TOU, also each 10%. I am wondering if I should be bailing on ECA or if there is some confidence in this stock? Thank you for your suggestions and advice and Seasons Greetings to you and the Team!

Q: Hi Peter

I appreciate your service and find the ready responses to the wide range of question subjects excellent, However, a question lurks in my mind, given that one cannot be all knowing, and it is whether you ever decline to respond on the basis that you have no experise or particular knowledge in respect of the question.

Q: Peter & team:

I currently own some ADN.to, Acadian timber, hoping from a. boost due to Sandy re-build. The stock is going nowhere. What do you think of IFP-A and WFT as alternatives to catch the revival of the US housing recovery, over the next 2-3 years.

Many thanks

Q: Peter,
Was hoping to get your comments on Kirkland Lake Gold. This is a company that seems to have a lot going for it but the stock has been sliding and today it got hammered. I don't really see anything to shake my confidence in the company other than typical project/operational type issues. Am I totally lost here or is thing getting hammered unreasonably? I'd imagine its getting hit by tax-loss selling too.

Q: Corby has two classes of shares, both trade about the same volume but one - CDL.A voting - trades about 50 cents higher than CDL.B non voting. Which is the better one to buy for a long term hold.

Q: Hi Peter,

What are your thoughts about NUS which is at an all time low? They have more cash then the current share price and are suffering from government interference. Is it worth buying here? Thanks

Q: Investment question. I appreciate we are all pretty much "fiscal cliff"ed out at this point. (Remember y2k?). However, I would be much interested in your take on the effect on the Canadian market should a resolution not occur by year end. Many seem to think that the resultant uncertainty would throw the U.S. market,at least, into turmoil (markets don't like uncertainty that they can't price in). No resolution raises the spectre of U.S. recession. They are our biggest trading partner. I'm just wondering what your thoughts would be on "going to cash" until the dust settles?
Thanks for all the work you do for us.
P.S. Do you send renewal reminders?

Q: Peter; The newspapers and Tv are awash with pipeline approval problems, plus the world , mostly the U.S. and Canada, are discovering new vast pools of tight oil. If this continues how will companies, like CPG etc,
get paid for their oil, besides hedging, and continue exploring and more importantly pay their dividends? Won't they have to basically lock in their oil, like the gas has producers do now? Thanks.
