Q: Hi Peter & team, BNS and all banks keep falling....do you expect more downside? Also, if a stock trades in the US and Canada (like BNS does) do you check both exchanges to get a better"feel" before you buy/sell? I ask this because BNS in the US has come down to the level of February 2014.....are we to assume BNS Canada will also get down to its low of February which would be ~58.00?

Than you!

Q: Hello,

I wonder how often you revise the ratings given to your coverage universe file.

For example, February 27, 2014 you writed a report on Enbridge with a grade of A-, since that time I have not seen a report on Enbridge ENB but is still A-

Does this mean that you are always confident Enbridge and your opinion on the title identitique.

thank you

Q: Is there any other update on CFN? Do you see ...deal failing and it dropping back to low levels again?

Q: Why is GLN still trading at such a discount (almost 4%) to its "cash" tender value (and even more with respect to the current BCE share value)? The Rogers injunction issue seems to have been resolved and no other obvious "deal-kiillers" have come out of the woodwork.

It seems to me that the risk/reward ratio is very favorable to purchase GLN now. I would appreciate your opinion.

Thanks!

Q: I believe High Liner Food only process and distribute seafood, while Clearwater (CLR.TO) also harvest seafood. So do you think CLR.TO will benefit more from higher seafood price? Which company do you prefer? would you consider current price a good entry point?

Thank you very much!

Q: I had reason to call Scotia iTRADE about a different item today and in the discussion CFN came up. I was told that on January 2nd the offer was extended to January 30 and that there is no mention of a special dividend. It seems odd that this extension is not widely known, although I may have missed that information.

Q: Just a comment on Carfinco declined today: Carfinco Financial Group Inc. lowered its January dividend to $0.025 from $0.04 in December, with management noting that the firm has seen an increase in delinquencies and losses on its receivable portfolio in recent months.

Q: Carfinco states "increase in both delinquencies and losses on the finance receivable portfolio in recent months" as the reason for the 38% dividend cut. If they knew the takeover was off would they not have an obligation to disclose with this announcement? And if the deal is off would there not be a break fee coming to CFN as damages that would allow them to continue the higher dividend? Finally it looks to me like selling has been pretty consistent through Monday so it would seem that someone knows something, wouldn't you agree? Thanks, J.
