Q: Hello, I currently own Alaris Royalty and, although it pays an excellent dividend, it has dropped about 30% since I purchased it.
I am currently considering purchasing Brookfield Business Partners to replace Alaris with the hope of recouping my capital loss. Do you think this would be a good trade?
Thank you for your reponse, Alan

Q: Hi
Could you provide me with a couple snapshots of Black Diamond please? How do they compare from a year ago, two years ago, when they cut their dividend, or even in their oil bull market phase. The question really would be if they are looking any better lately, are they doing the right things, how challenged are they, are they investable right now? Thank you

Q: Having been doing some research on couch potato investing as opposed to me being actively involved.
As such, I am considering VGRO for myself and VBAL for my spouse's TFSAs. 4-5 year investment time frame.
Do you think this a good idea in putting all eggs in Vanguard's basket? What alternatives would you suggest?

Appreciate the insights and information you have provided and continue to provide.

Q: Hi, Could you please comment on the company's intention to convert from income trust to corporate structure. They also mentioned that this move will help improve liquidity in daily trading as well as allow investors outside Canada to own the shares. Besides the tax implications, do you see this move impacting the share price in near/ long term or make comapny shares more attractive to institutions to own. Thank You

Q: Hello:
I am looking for a conservative, growth orientated, low dividend payout company that will give me capital gains. Dividends are a low priority. Any thoughts on CNR, CP or ATD or other companies that would satisfy my objective. Thanks in advance.

Q: I have a question about Shopify US. Due to price drop in Shopify shares, I sold off 100 shares yesterday morning to maintain profits. I am still holding 50 Shares that I purchased the end of August for 394.00. With yesterday's offering which looks like it will reduce price further, would you advise to sell and buy back at what would hopefully be lesser price or just ride it out.? Thank you.
