Q: I saw this news release and would be grateful for an interpretation.
http://investors.algonquinpower.com/File/Index?KeyFile=400290864

If shares are only offered to the public, I suppose that includes institutional investors? Also, I'd be interested to know how the market works in this situation. ie, if supply of shares exceeds demand, will the price keep dropping until they're all sold? It is about 4.6% of their market cap.
I would like to purchase shares and would appreciate guidance on when you would suggest this could be done.
Many thanks.
ps. I very much appreciated your frank article 2 days ago on the financialpost.com

Q: I've been looking over FRU since I saw your most recent answer to a Q about it. Seems remarkable the it is now trading at a price last seen in 2000! It is trading below it's 2008 low. My question is: Considering that oil is a declining asset has this company managed to increase its land holdings in oil over the last 20 years or is it on a slow decline? Also, how did it perform in the 2008 Great Recession?

Q: A guest of BNN suggested that seniors looking for yield should consider the larger US Industrials. He feels that the Industrial sector is already in recession and priced lower that results in good yields. Need to select ones with ability to continue paying dividend thru a rough patch.
Could you suggest ones that align with this theory.

Q: Hi team
I am in a bit of a quandary, I bought ala a while ago, before they cut the dividend, my average cost is about $ 29, I know the old saying it doesn't matter what you paid for it, its the present that counts, I have it in a tax free account. I am thinking about selling some of it and buying vet, higher yield, but Lord knows that it could be cut at any time regardless of the management says they wont. I also feel that it has a better chance of capital gains in the future. How do you feel about this plan
Thanks

Q: hello 5i:
the railroads are beginning to look a little more interesting to me. While I still think we need at least another 5% taken from the price to become very interested, I wish to know which you'd pick today, knowing you go back and forth on them (you last chose CN in mid-August), and WHY you'd choose the one you do.
thanks
