Q: This has been quite weak lately, is there any reason in particular or is it cyclical? Is there another company that might be a good alternative?
Thank you

Q: As a place for short term cash I have the max amount in Oaken Financial, that is covered by CDIC. Being that it is owned by Home Capital, and the news from there seems to be mostly negaive lately, would it be better to move to another high interest savings account for a holding tank. I don't want to have to go through the CDIC to get my money.
Do you have another suggestion?
I really do appreciate your service, and have begun to rely on it, so Thank You.

Q: So last night Motley Fool Canada took down their article from yesterday that was bashing CRH and comparing it to Valeant. Then the author releases a new version of the article that is actually promoting CRH for the most part. I did notice in the original article that they listed Motley Fool (US) as owning the stock which struck me as odd. I wondered why Motley Fool would bash a company, contributing to its decline while its parent company is long the stock. Feels like maybe the author got a big slap on the wrist and was forced to instantly retract the article? Very weird.Would there be any legal implications there, seems like manipulation. They are bashing a stock one day, and pumping it the next.Not that I had any respect for Motley Fool but I've defintitely lost the little I did have for their stock reports.
