Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
On April 30th in response to a question you choose CPX over TA and stated TA was expensive. Since then TA has fallen approximately 20%.What do you think has caused this? Is it company related, the sector or fear of the NDP...or all three? If the shares fell another 10% or 15% would you consider it a possible long term contrarian play? Thanks for your thoughts!

Q: What are your thoughts on TransAlta's 2014 report given today and their outlook going forward? Thanks.
Q: Hi Peter and Co.
May I have your opinion on this bond...TRANSALTA MTN 6.4% 18NV19? The bond is presently trading at $110.36*, and I do have a nice capital gain. I have no problem holding the bond (in my RSP) until maturity, but am concerned about the safety of the bond considering the price decline in TA's stock price. Your thoughts are appreciated.
Merry Christmas to the staff at 5iResearch.

Q: Has anything materially changed with TransAlta since the Feb 20th question and answer to set off the recent downward move? We own it at $20.00. Is it time to sell?
Q: Hi Peter & Co.
We've held Trans Alta TA since 2006. Now it looks like the short sellers are having their day.
Do we finally 'bite the bullet' and get out ?
Or do you think that cutting the Dividend will be good enough to help TA's Bottom Line?
Thank you

Q: TA.pr.D
I read your recent comment on TA common shares, but does the same opinion apply to their reset prefs, this one trading at a very attractive price and yield. More broadly, so many rate reset prefs are off, in particular the past 2 weeks. While part of an income portfolio (the lower current costs seemingly protecting against rate increases), are they possibly still a bit of a value trap, even at these reduced prices? Thank-you as always...

Q: Would love to hear your thoughts on Transalta (TA). Attractive yield and potentially signalling a technical breakout. Would this be a good entry point?
Q: About a year ago I asked about Trans Alta. You said they had enough cash to maintain their dividend for at least another year. What is your recommendation now. I am wondering if I should continue to hold or redeem my shares.
Thanks so much.

Q: Peter; i know TA is not one of your favorites but could you look at their earnings of today and comment? thanks. Rod
Q: I own Tranalta preferred share series F and although I understand why preferred shares in general have declined recently because of qantative easing comments recently, I am at a loss to understand why these share have dropped so much. As I understand it the balance sheet is fairly solid and this series will be redeemed or the rate is due to be reset in about 2 years. If Transalta does have cash flow problems it could reduced the common dividend and at least temporarily solve the problem. Can you explain this?
