Q: Hi guys,
What is your opinion about this company? It seems interesting and I am looking for a medium to long term investment. Do you recommend to buy, wait or pass? Anything better on this side of the border ?
Thank you,

Q: Hello, Can you tell me what do you think of this REIT? It has taken a beating since being spun out from Simon Properties. It has a 7% yield & some insider buying. It was a top pick from Derek Warren on Market Call yesterday.
Thanks,
Martin

Q: Hello

I'm wondering if you see anything positive in the company's future. It looks bleak to say the least but I keep thinking about all the cobalt reserves and companies like Tesla needing a whole lot of it in the upcoming years. Thank you

Q: With the threat of increased royalties to the province of AB, how does this affect a royalty company like Freehold? Are they subject to provincial royalties or are the actual exploration companies that FRU lease to, the ones with responsibility?

Q: I have traded a number of investment-grade preferred shares (fixed-resets and floating-resets) over the past 9 - 12 months, and have generally done quite well despite the BoC rate cut in January. One major exception however has been the ENB preferreds, where I have lost quite a bit of money.

When ENB announced their plans to drop down assets into Enbridge Income Fund and US entities, the credit agencies put ENB on negative review, leading to a big drop in ENB.PR prices (they trade now like Pf-3(high)/Pf-3 rated prefs).

This is very disheartening: I buy investment grade prefs in order to avoid such non-interest-rate-related losses.
In your view, what is the danger that other "utilities", such as TRP, FTS, etc., might also institute similar changes to their capital structure (and hence credit ratings), leading to precipitous drops in their pref shares?

Thanks!

Q: Espial's acquisition of Bluestreak looks like a perfect fit not only to expand its offerings and market, but to allow it to bulk up with the technical resources to deliver on its contracts to its Tier 1 (and other) customers. In short, the message to the industry is that the previous commitments by Espial have been de-risked considerably and ESP is now open to taking on more challenges. Your thoughts?
