Q: I am curious when CSU was acquired into the Balanced Equity portfolio. You show it as having a return of 508.75% since inception, the highest of all holdings. I have held it since April 28, 2015 and have a return of 51.67%. I try to mimic the Balanced Equity portfolio as much as I can but I know it can hardly be quite the same.

Q: You indicated that MG, like many other companies, will be or have bought back shares. Once the shares are repurchased what happens: a) do the shares reside with MG and can be resold at a later date? Or B) the shares deleted from the total pool of shares under MG? ie the share count is forever reduced. Or c) something else?
Many thanks.

Q: These two stocks were rocket or V-shape movements today, Nov.8,2018. They were down big time and then they did recover. What is going on with these two, are there some Mutual and Index funds doing a lot of selling? Herbert

Q: I'm 84 and invest for income with some growth. We have full positions on 23 holdings in our joint account, with a value of over $900G. I'm considering trimming some of the loftier positions and taking a half position in AFN for income and growth. It is a rather small company but seems to have good prospects in Asia. Can I have your comments on AFN. Thanks, Ted

Q: Good morning, There has been so much investor angst, and a sell-off in ENB, apparently because mgmt. did not refer to dividend increases in their Q3 conference call, thereby raising doubts. ENB has elevated debt following the Spectra acquisition (in what many see as a rising interest rate environment), and a large project pipeline to fund. Why would ENB mgmt. raise expectations in the first place (on increasing the dividend so dramatically, 10-12% per year for several years) while they KNEW they would need significant cash to reduce debt and fund future projects. Makes one wonder...... Would appreciate your insight. Thank you.
