Q: Appreciate your advice on conversion privilege effective dec31/18
Presently down $4400 loss
1. To receive one cumulative rate reset Pref share series B of AQN for each cumulative rate reset pref series A of AQN converted
If u choose this option can u explain the reasoning and what might be expected in recovering the losses in the future with this option
2. If u don’t choose option1 I am assuming the pref will be cashed in at current loss
Thanks

Q: I've been comparing these two funds and while they appear to be essentially taking the same approach. HFR has Canadian & US holdings and FLOT has exclusively US holdings. Yet their is a substantial difference in their yields. But FLOT yield is 4.3% and HFR 2.3%. I don't get it.
Yield is nice to have but I'm more concerned with capital preservation through the end of this business cycle. Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Q: Hello,

We live in "interesting times"!

I have been patiently waiting to add more of AQN but price keeps rising without respite, even during major pullbacks! What magic is going on at AQN?

1) Does it look like a Top is forming around $14?

I'm sure the stock is very compelling as a momentum vehicle and maybe I should nibble both on the Up and on the Down.

As ever, your helpful thought appreciated.
Regards

Q: I have read that if Canada bans Huawei ( I think they may have to) from 5g that the telecoms , Rogers to a lesser degree will have a 1 billion hit as they will have to remove the equipment they have already installed. Now the time for the crystal ball.

If that were to happen , it is a one time hit, probably some tax write offs etc would the market react violently negative.
I own a lot of bce.
