Q: Prefs make up about 5% of my holdings. Most are solid, however
I am underwater on CSE.PR.A and AZP.PR.A and am looking at selling to offset gains elsewhere.
Could you make a suggestion(s) as to a good and somewhat similar home for the proceeds?
I was thinking about CSE and/or AQN. ( My feeling is CSE is a a bit of a dice roll on a deal getting done)
I hold BEP.UN in a registered account, but am light on utilities otherwise.
Thank You.

Q: In their most recent 10-Q, I don't understand what's going on in the Cash Flows from Investing Activities for the past 9 months - can you explain what is meant by 'purchases of marketable securities', 'proceeds from maturities of marketable securities', and 'proceeds from sales of marketable securities'?

Q: This is a comment on Joe technique for currency conversion. Last time I called TD discount broker to do a similar transaction, I was told that security regulation wouldn't allow me to own two positions one short and the other one long for the same security. The trade could be cancelled if I do it. Don't know if this is a security regulation or TD regulation?

Q: You have XHY in the Income Portfolio. It has not performed well overall. I did a graphical comparison with ZWH and ZWH looks far superior. ZWH has increased in the last year whereas XHY has gone south.

I'm thinking of selling XHY and buying ZWH. May I have your thoughts on this move?

Thanks ... Ron

Q: I hold some Interpipe, Transalta Renewables (RNW ) and Pembina (PPL). All still at gains, but gains are eroding on a consistent basis. All are held for income as opposed to capital gains. Do you see any distribution cuts for these pipeline/utilities in the next couple years? Are recent distribution increases justified or misleading attempts to support stock prices? What is your opinion of the high-yielding pipes/renewables?

Thank-you

Q: I have the same security in 2 individual trading accounts. In one account my price is below cost so if I sell I trigger a capital loss. However I am above cost on the average of the two accounts. How does that figure for claiming a capital loss?

Q: Wouldn't a downturn in the economy be neutral for this company as it backs up the loans with overcollateralization (I think it was 130% last quarter) and therefore an increase in company defaults would end up okay for their balance sheet once things were worked out? Thanks.
