Q: Hello Your A rating and recent report on Cineplex using the word "Monopoly" got me interested in the Sector. Would purchasing shares in AMC Entertainment be worse, equal to, or better than buying Cineplex given the lower valuation of AMC and scale that AMC has? ceteris paribus on the dividends and exchange risk aside. Thanks very much

Q: Good morning,
Your answer to a previous question regarding ala.r indicates that the dividends are not dividends but interest income. Please confirm if they are taxed as dividends or interest. I hold in a cash account.
If subscription receipts are sold before conversion would that be considered a capital gain/loss? When is the expected date for the conversion to common shares.
Thanks

Q: Could you pls. provide your current thinking about the Canadian pipeline and related services sector?
Which companies would be in your top 3 and how would you rate today's buying opportunity? My historical context is that PE's are lofty and yields were low but are improving as sector stock values decline. At what point would your top choices be a compelling buy as a long term hold for the income oriented investor?
Thanks, Hugh

Q: I hold the above in a RIF and have weighted to cover the required withdrawal amount with dividends. Does this sound appropriate and if not, would appreciate your thoughts. Do you see a major loss of principal if markets continue its downward trend. Thanks for all your help.

Q: I'm considering buying Surge Energy on the recent weakness. What are your thought? I like the dividend. But, what are the prospects for recovery on stronger oil prices? Is there a company you think presents a better opportunity at today's prices?

Q: Hello guru's,

I currently hold equal weight in ATD.B and L. Both are off a bit, but no concerns. Question- is there any point in consolidating to one security or it is it preferable to remain diversified.

Bonus question, I have ZCL, OTEX and GSY and are all down 10%. I am underweight in KXS,NFI and SJ. Do you see any point in moving into the underweight stocks, at the cost of the trading fees, in the hope that there is any upside.

I have no problem waiting out an upturn in the market, how ever long that takes.

Thanks as always.

KC
