Q: Hi there 5i. With a pending takeover; I am wondering if there is an opportune time to sell my shares in GS or if I should hang onto them in the event there is an increase in value or a trade off in shares of the buyer, or are there other options? I am currently down approx. 13%. Thank You so much for your excellent service. Glynn

Q: Good Morning
Both GS and KWH have buyout offers. What is the best way to collect the remaining dividends until these purchases close? Will tendering to these offers ensure you collect these dividends or should I wait until the ex dividend date expires, then tender?
Secondly what would you suggest as a replacement for both.
Thank you

Q: Hello all.
Looks like GS has worked out ok for recent purchasers.
Given this:
"The Gluskin Sheff board of directors, after consultation with its financial and legal advisers, has unanimously approved the transaction and determined that it is in the best interests of Gluskin Sheff, and unanimously recommends that Gluskin Sheff shareholders vote in favour of the transaction." I would expect low likelihood of a competing offer- your thoughts?

Also wondering if you can recommend another pick, (in any industry), with similar qualities, especially a significant and solid dividend.
Thanks

Q: Regarding GS, I read a research report yesterday where they mention that the annual regular dividend of $1.00 appears safe. Wondering if you concur. Also, while one should maybe not buy a stock based upon a potential takeover, I would think this firm would be attractive as, if I am not mistaken, they focus on high net worth clients. Also, in a takeover, the current dividend payment could be applied to debt/interest on the buyout price. Am I thinking correctly here?

Q: Based on what I see from GlobeInvestor GS appears to have cut their dividend from last year to this: $1.35 per share versus $1.00 per share. Is that true and why did they cut? Also, with the current high yield would you recommend a buy now for income? I am also thinking that at the current stock price the company may attract a buyer.
