Q: Sorry another question on wilan. Skippen says that the dividend will be cut but does not exclude possibility of special dividends.
Would his strategy be to drive the share price down so the company can buy more shares at a cheap price and then collect a special dividend on more shares they would own. Is that a strategy that companies have used in the past? Is it a possibility they would do that or even ethical?

Q: Hi 5i My local lumber yard suggested I put my lumber order in as soon as possible as they are expecting an increase in pricing. They have been told from a supplier that demand from the U.S. is increasing and price increases will follow. My question is ADN has been going down the last few weeks but ADN has just increased its dividend, as boots on the ground would you take this as an opportunity to buy into ADN. Thx Gerry

Q: The tax loss selling season is fast approaching and the top name on my list is CPG. I bought CPG at $27.30 and I wonder from a TA standpoint does it have the momentum to hit $20.70 before YE?

I'm willing to take a $7 per share loss. Is it too optimistic? I almost pull the trigger the last time it went over $20, but "greed"/ "hope" pulled me back. I really want to unload this one before YE and move on. Please advise. Thanks.

Q: Thoughts on their earnings released just this hour. Missed on earnings and stock already hammered.

Any red flags regarding the sustainability of the company? Even if you lop off 20% of estimated 2015 earnings the stock is trading at 11x. How cheap have you seen these type of businesses get?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Q: Have you changed your thoughts on SODA at all? Can you comment on the recent quarter? Does lacklustre pretty much sum it up? And would you consider it to be a likely tax loss selling candidate?

Q: Hi,

Can you comment on the work involved in institutional analysis and also expand on your comment about the short position holder reactions to the earnings release at avo. I would have expected at least flat pricing after the Quarterly, but see it down now 14%, are short traders driving this? Also, rbc and cibc both changed their targets on the stock within 12 hrs of the earnings release, it seems quick for thorough review. Finally, was there anything on the conference call hosted by the CEO that you found interesting?

Thanks,

Eric
