Q: These two companies will be sold in my RRSP (Valener) and Cash (Crius) accounts. I have held these stocks as income producers. What would be good replacement stock(s) for these when they are sold. For Crius, if you could, give me 4 or 5 stocks that could replace it for income. My portfolio is well diversified and I am looking for a 4-6% dividend paying stock. Thanks, as always, for the guidance.

Q: AD is now paying a 9% dividend which makes it very tempting. I have been investing a long time and have generally found high yield dividend stocks often disappoint. On the other hand I also understand that there are moments where the market will misprice stock values and create opportunity.
So in the case of AD am I correct that holding the stock (which I do) is reasonable and that the stock should appreciate to a value supporting a 4 to 6% yield.
On the other side, at a 9% yield the general market does not share my view and I think predicts a material event or dividend cut.
I have a long time frame and high risk tolerance.
So my question is when does the high yield give you cause for concern?
Thanks John

Q: Hi
After reading the most recent Q about AD, I am left as an investor realizing information was in the hands of National before widespread and publicly available.
Please comment on why it is appropriate for NA to have information that was unavailable to regular investors.............and who may have been buying today and therefore lost money. (with full awareness would not have been buying)
What is an investor to think about management who did not reveal publicly before revealing to at least one analyst? From my understanding this is illegal. There have been documentaries written on this form of behavior.
Thanks

Q: Just a follow up to my question about the drop in Alaris today. So an analyst at NA drops his/her target price and the stock drops 10%? Was there any specific reasoning behind the downgrade and where would an investor get that information? If there is no fundamental change to the companies business, why would investors sell out of their positions? I have heard portfolio managers comment that they don't pay any attention to "price targets" and base their decisions on their own analysis and the fundamentals of each company they invest in. As you have said before, there are always 2 sides to each trade but it seems a lot of people react to an opinion and sell before they done any checking. Your comments please.
