Q: Hi Peter & team: Long time member- Great service - Thank You!
With regards to Hans' question about Brian Acker's views on Market call- I took it as more of an issue about when cash dividends in $ paid out per share are greater than EPS. Brian used BCE and ENB as examples of an early sign of trouble and one should avoid such situations. You have handled this in the past (very well) Can you provide us a refresher on the opposing view ? If I remember correctly the net is basically "dividends out greater than EPS is OK, but not forever " Thanks in advance.

Thank you

Q: Hi Guys.

Looking to buy Raytheon on the setback but would prefer to buy the CDN Canadian Depository Receipt version. I just wonder if the CDR is too thinly traded to be "safe".

I own the CDR of Alphabet but it trades thousands of shares each day. The CDR of RTX sometimes trades no shares in a day so I don't even know where my bid should be to match the US version.

Are my fears real and any strategy to use to buy the CDN CDR or should I just but it on the NYSE?

Thanks so much

Stuart

Q: Brian Acker was on Market Call on September 26. He was asked about some high dividend payers such as BCE and ENB. He said that these high dividends reduce the book value of these stocks, so that in effect one is not really getting a true high yield.
Can you explain this or have a comment?
Thank you, Cheers
