Q: I am looking to sell my Energy stock holdings as I move all of my portfolio to ETF's - I am looking for a bit more stability in the energy sector as well as income - I have a 10 yr horizon and can live with some moves with the market - Can you recommend a couple good ETF's that focus on Income from Energy and Energy services - Thanks

Q: Subscription receipt offered for $31.00. Do you see this as a good buy at a slight discount to today's closing of $33.32 or should I wait, as sometimes I note in many instances that the initial reaction to issuance of new shares tends to drive the price bellow the offer price. I already own 200 shares at 40.86 and looking to average down. I also like it for income and wonder if the dividend is safe and do you think that the new merger will contribute to ALA`s ability to grow the dividend.

Thank you.
Joseph

Q: I have always been interested in this company but have never "pulled the trigger". In an answer to a question yesterday you indicated you consider it presently a good value stock. What valuation metric are you using? Scotia Itrade gives two p/e valuations, 14.4 and 16.2. Stockreports+ says is have a trailing p/e of 7.3 and a forward p/e of 9.6. What valuation are you currently putting on this stock? Thank you. Bill.

Q: In response to a question yesterday you indicated that you believe that the ALA dividend is not at risk. I have read that high yield can be a sign of weakness in a stock. Is it your opinion that the current high yield of 6.5% for ALA is sustainable at this level? Do you believe that for stocks in general a high yield is an indicator of weakness in any stock? Thank you.

Q: Peter & Co,
Crius Energy had a Q3 loss of $0.14 per share while sporting a 9.15% dividend yield. This doesn't make sense to me. Are my numbers incorrect? Is this level of dividend sustainable? Do you think the solar component of the company will be a major drag on earnings in Trump's USA?
Thanks for your clarification and assessment of the company.
With appreciation for your great service to retail investors.
