Q: From the Q&A, I think you are saying that BOS isn't an outright sell but rather a patient hold. Do you believe now is an opportunity to increase a position or has this one become a "wait and see" stock? The performance has really been disappointing.

Q: I have a question about Gamehost Inc . Stock price seems to have stabilized and pays a nice dividend so how do you feel about this stock for a riff portfolio that is interested in yield and can be patient to wait for growth? Is this a good time to buy or might there be a negative reaction when they report earnings.
Thanks
Maggie

Q: Any idea whats going on with AW.UN? For a steady Eddie it seems to be on quite a roll. Does its corporate structure make it more difficult for it to be acquired?

Do you still prefer A&W to the other restaurant royalty names?

Q: I would appreciate your opinion on BK (Canadian Banc Corp Cl.A). I understand you generally don't like split corps. However, I have been a long time holder and have done quite well with it. It is 2.3% of my largest portfolio but a smaller percentage overall. I have not found any previous questions on this company.

Q: I had planned to sell some or all of my shares of WB, when suddenly, this offer with MTN happened. I have a nice capital gain (222.99%) since buying the shares in 2011. Also nice is the share price increase as a result of the deal announcement. However, the dividend has been flat/no increases since 2011. Questions: Is is in my best interest to wait till the deal goes through and then sell? What happens if I sell now to take advantage of the pop in the WB price?
