Q: Olympia has been on a downward trend for a few of days, anything you see happening here that I should know?
Q: You answered a question on ECN.PR.C I would like to ask a similar question about ECN.PR.A. It has dropped a further $3 since last Thursday. Do you see any particular weakness other than the general conditions you have answered on previous preferred reset questions? Is the share buyback of ECN common shares weakening the company's position of paying interest? Most of my resets have been called back at reset date and new stock issued at lower rates so I have not replaced them. Is that a possibility here and with the C's? (deduct what you feel appropriate)
Thank you and Best wishes for the Christmas Season

Q: Could I get your opinion on POW? On any length of chart this blue-chip dividend (growth??) company looks poor. Why? Perhaps this Europe exposure?

Q: I believe JPM is your preferred US bank based on a prior question. I'm wondering if you can compare and contrast it to Wells Fargo and make the case for one over the other? I'm curious as P/E difference seems insignificant between the two. The Buffet backing of Wells Fargo is interesting as well. Can you comment on why he prefers it? Take 2-3 credits as needed! Thanks

Q: I would like to have some clarity on the buy back of share. Just received an offer to buy back from 3.35 to 3.75
Why they want to back back? and is it a good move...should I do it?

thanks for your help

Q: I am looking at the PB ratio for Laurentian Bank (0.74) and I find it hard not to invest in it, except if it is really in trouble. What is the historical PB value for this company? Why is it so different than all other canadian banks? If they just increased their dividend, it must be a sign of confidence? Thanks.
