Q: Regarding Bonds,

I just wanted to clarify if I got this concept right. With interest rates increasing and a few more planned increases over the next year..The bond prices decrease as the yield increases..So if one can predict with some certainty the expected increase in rates will stop..is that the only time when bond purchases are beneficial?
Brookfield, and Berkshire have purchased solid assets at bargain prices over time. I own full positions in both of these but for a longterm would you consider these as a replacement to fixed investement allocation. If you agree I would double the positions to 10% each. Thanks for your insight.

Q: I have some questions on Altagas. Would a person be better to buy ACI later this month, because it should have better growth(propane export).
Also, If I were to buy Altagas now , is there not a fair chance of the dividend being cut, because of reduced cash flow(selling Canadian assets). Would you please comment on these aspects. Will ACI have a dividend and how much.
TSGI I was thinking of selling for tax purposes and would like to buy back after 30 days.. Do you know when the next report will be out, I thought perhaps in the middle of Nov.. Thanks in advance Love your service Earl

Q: I recently read a article in the Globe and Mail about companies on the TSX that have a PEG ratio of less than 1.0. CHR was included in this article. It had a PEG ratio of 0.4. I realize there are many criteria to consider when investing but PEG ratio is one that I think is important. Based on his information CHR is either a screaming buy or the earnings growth rate is way out of whack. Which do you think and would you recommend CHR for long term investment (5 years or more)?
