Q: hi,
BNS is now trading below November 2013 ( as far as I can see, correct me if I'm wrong ). could you do a quick comparison of the company at each time, illustrating valuation metrics/growth prospects etc.? BNS is now down more than 30% from the recent top-are forward earnings expectations now down 30% from the top, or more/less than 30%? Lastly, do you have any educated guess as to where the bottom is for this stock?
cheers, chris

Q: Which of these companies do you consider to be a better buy at this time. Clearly I'm looking for sustainable dividends but also some growth over the next few years. Do you have better suggestions in the utility sector?

Q: I understand that the prairie farmers are having a good year with above average crop yields. This should be positive for the railways if they have sufficient capacity; particularly CP. On the other hand, if we are heading into a recession, they could suffer. Given the recent pullback what is your outlook for the railways for the short to medium term.
Thanks for your insight.

Q: Hello,

Thank you for all the help in these tough times. The advice from this service does help keep a person grounded in dark days. In anticipation of us reaching peak inflation and small caps beginning to turn around can you let me know which of these you would prefer? Both are trading close in stock price but CTS is much larger according to RBC website 1.3B vs 188M. Both are well down from their highs and both seem to still be growing at a good rate. Which in your view looks like the better horse? Or should a person pick both?

Thanks
