Q: Hi Peter and Staff,
I see EFI is down again today. Earnings seemed ok so is there something else that is taking this stock down?
Thanks Bob

Q: I have a question about EIF. The stock has been dropping hard on very high volume. I have been stopped out on over half my position now. Is there a new short report out? I have learned there are no percentages being on the opposite side of a convinced shorter.

Q: Any concerns regarding recent earnings miss? Is this still a reasonable income choice?
Thanks for your insight.

Q: I stumbled across this ETF (PYF) by accident. What are the drawbacks with this one. It has a 52 week low/hi of 19.42/20.52 with a yield of 7.1%. It looks like a nice place to park some cash for a season but what is the downside (there is always a downside and usually a big one)? Thanks for doing a great job.

Q: publish if you see fit: companies that have increased their dividend payments for 25+ consecutive years in a row.

Q: Hello Peter,

Can you breathe any logic into today`s market reaction to what seemed a great Quarterly report? currently down 4%. No biggy in terms of the big picture, but I would have thought the results would have garnered a 5% swing to the positive. Weak hands on deck?

Q: Can you provide an updated assessment on SunLife (SLF)given recent results? I am looking to invest new money in blue chip dividend payor for son's TFSA account and also considering telcom (BCE) as an alternative. Should I go with SLF for now given the recent run up in BCE stock price? Thanks again. John C

Q: Hello
Can you comment on earnings for both ATP and TA.

Cash flow seems to be improving and both are working on improving leverage levels.

I have a small position in both these companies that I intend on selling to buy more quality names. But I am not in a hurry to sell them since I am down 30% and 40% respectively and would like to let them run a bit if they show signs of improving.


Thank you !
