Review of Morguard Corporation

Q: I don't understand. MRC does over $1 bil in rev, has only 11 mil shares, never issues more; yet pays almost no div, has a lousy ROE and the current stock price of $110 is almost as low as ever. Yet it has a tangible book value of $355, over 3x it's stock price. That's just weird. Why isn't the price much higher? Is it so badly run that no one wants to pay for that value? Help me understand the issue(s) here please. Thanks so much.

Q: Hello,
I've held it for 10 years or so since it was around $100, and now the share price is back to where it was 10 years ago.
What's your view on the company going forward? Is this a time to throw a towel?
Thanks

Q: I have been fortunate to come into a windfall of cash from a relative, and I am interested in taking new positions in the following securities with this new cash. Please note, my existing portfolio is fairly well diversified across all sectors in North America.

Can I please get your long-term opinion on these new securities I wish to invest in. Do you see any issues with respect to these investment choices? I have money to invest and feel the urge to plunge into the market at this time.

CSH.UN, MRC, ALA, MPCT.UN, TRP, CVS, LIFE.U, TEVA

Thanks

George
