Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: You stated in your Q&A on Enbridge that "that cash flow PER SHARE has doubled since 2010." However if I go to the Morningstar web site under Key Stats it shows that cash flow has been mostly negative for the last ten years.
The following are numbers from there site......
Free Cash Flow Per Share * CAD
2007-12 -1.28

2008-12 -3.10

2009-12 -1.78

2010-12 -0.74

2011-12 0.33

2012-12 -3.51

2013-12 -5.50

2014-12 -9.47

2015-12 -4.87

2016-12 -1.20
What am I missing? Are their numbers incorrect?

Q: I have a little bit of cash at the moment and I'd like your advice.

I currently hold all of the balanced portfolio except BYD.UN and CAE, should I open a position with either of these two or should I top up another stock in the portfolio.

Thanks!

Q: I guess I'll hold on until the dividend date. But PUR was one of my largest positions even before the takeover offer. As such it is now about 10% of my portfolio. My question is how long do you think the takeover will take and in my position, would you just err on the side of safety and take the considerable money and run. Also, although I have held PUR for a long time, your continued endorsement of the company made it easier to continue to hold through the recent drop and I thank-you for that.

Q: I have a question about DHX and specifically DHX.DB.

The debentures are trading around $94 and have a coupon of 5.875% coming due in 2024.

Do you think the company is sound enough to be around in 2024 assuming no take over?

Would these debentures be a good investment for the more speculative part of a fixed income portfolio? If not, any suggestions?

Regards
John
