Q: Hi I just watched this hedge fund manager short EIF I wonder what his credentials are I doubt reading a Finance Report are his forte .I believe any can and has the right to short a stock but when as a guest on BNN you do this it has a impact on the stock .
I believe that BNN should not allow exposure to these hedge Managers to help them advertise their short position .
As a shareholder of BCE I am going to be a pain in !@@&^
for the next while BNN should be held accountable
Kind Regards
Stan

Q: Hello,
Question about bonds, trying to figure out if buying bonds with ratings like BB or BBB would be a godod addition to my portfolio ( risk / return). Are there a lot of options for canadian companies ? What kind of yield should we expect for 3 / 5 year term ? Is it available through discount broker ? Is there a minimum amount per company and what kind of trading fee should we expect ? Any recommendations or sector suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

Q: What was the fundamental reason(s) for Gibson Energy's slow decline to ~ 1/3 its value from sep 2014 to Jan 2016 and are those reasons still true today? It still pays a fairly hefty dividend of ~7% but is it safe and by that I mean is there a danger of the stock taking another relentless dive down?

Q: This a followup to Curtis's question in which you said: "We would consider interest rate risk a greater worry than company credit risk." What effect do you forsee on ALA do the rising rates in the US? Would 1% rise mean a decline, and what size of decline could one anticipate? Thanks, Mark

Q: Aside from the market cap, which is pretty obvious, could you explain the difference between these two funds. In particular why/how BGI pays almost twice the dividend. I have held BIP for quite a while and done really well with it, but can't help looking at BGI.
Thank-you
