Q: Hello, you have mentioned before that HR.UN has $6 billion in debt. When I look at the data on TMX Money the company has a market cap of just over $6 billion. A) Does that worry you to see that the debt and the market cap are of about the same magnitude? B) What is HR.UN debt-to-cash flow ratio? Is that too high? HR.UN is not performing well in 2017, may be this is just cyclical I don't know. Regards, Gervais

Q: I thought I was reasonably patient and comfortable with a reasonable amount of volatility . . . but it is still disconcerting to see a 12% drop in both KXS & SIS in the first two months after adding them to my TFSA! And KXS looks to be even more in free-fall this morning.
They are each only 2.3% of our (my/spouse's) total portfolios, but a significant % of my TFSA.
Please tell to whether to hang in there or what might be at play here?

Q: In a diversified RRSP account I have 10% industrials with positions in XTC, ZCL, NFI, and MG. Have been patient with XTC and can remain so, but do own MG already. The account is more growthy given time to need. Looking for a second opinion on my thought to swap XTC for DOO/CAE/BYD. Would you make the switch? If so to witch name? I don't trade a lot but do watch the names and account fairly closely.
