Q: What do think about comparing the current dividend yield to the historical yield of a stock as a way of assessing its value as an investment? i.e., if the current yield is greater than the historic yield (the average yield over the past five or ten years), than the stock would be a "buy" (notwithstanding other factors) or a better value than companies in the same peer group with yields lower than the historical average yield.

Q: Can you please comment on Rogers Sugar's latest earnings release? It appears to have beaten expectations, in part to lower costs.

Q: Hello Peter,
I have small amount of cash left in my TFSA. My current stock holdings are FFH, GIB.A, GUD, SJ, and DEE (less than 1 percent). I would like to deploy it with the hope of a good pop in one of the three stocks 2-5 year timeframe. Which one would make the most sense (HBC, GS or POT)? Much appreciated. Thank you in advance for this reply and other detailed explanations you have provided in the past.
