Q: In Wilan’s (WIN) recent annual circular, there is a proposal to “reduce the stated capital account of the common shares in the capital of the Corporation by $120 million”. Is this the same as a share buyback? Can you explain in simple terms what this is and why a corporation does this? (I understand share buybacks, but how is this different?)

Q: Good afternoon,
Re Stantec STN, I have noticed over the last several days that there has been a persistent unusual trading pattern: the stock goes up nicely to high $67's 0R $68 until about 15 minutes before closing and then plunges to no gain or a loss on the day. Although I plan to hold for a long time, I am curious about what this means. Is someone unwinding a large position? Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: Good morning,
1) I am confused with the reported pay out ratio for BEP.UN. I know you have it in your income portfolio and you have stated cash flow for it is a better indicator. However, when researching various sites MSN has it at 112%; Financial Times at 257% and ycharts at 72.69%. I saw one had it at 545%. Would you mind solving this for me. What does your research say?
2) You recently provided an answer to me regarding "BUYS" in the Capped Utility sector.
What would be your top 4 "Buys' ….. long term, income.
Have a great weekend
Paul

Q: re: AYA
has come back a bit (11%) over the past week. Considering your last comment regarding "rumors of a big acquisition at Amaya" and "it is still a solid company but will likely drift back to $8 or so" is there anything you have seen or can add now regarding what might happen over the next short term?
Thanks for all you do

Q: Hi,
Unfortunately I did not buy CF after your report was released. Sure had a good run. Can you give us you opinion on the recent results released once you have had time to review and more importantly what kind of growth and future prospects you see for CF as a result? Thanks

Thanks.
