Q: Hi
I have held SPB for a long time and my cost is $5.98 Over the years the stock has been more than paid for itself by the dividends.
It has been as high as $16.00 in the past year or so but now it is back below $10.00 again. It now yields over 7%. Is that out of line or even sustainable?
What could be the fundamental reason for this latest set-back? Winter is on it's way and global warming notwithstanding it will likely get colder.
They have continually been buying more assets and should that not make the shares more valuable?
Could I have your analyses please. H.

Q: Hi

Is my thinking correct?

Based on the above, next year the Government will be being paying more in OAS and in some cases GIS (the Old Age Pension supplement for low income seniors).

In fact some people who are having their OAS clawed back as of July 2022 based on their 2021 income, can apply to have there OAS recalculated for the period July 2022 to June 2023 should they expect lower income in 2022.

Thank you for your time

Thank you

Mike
