Q: re: CGX Cineplex
Thank you for your answer yesterday. Can only assume the reason for the type of reply was because I asked my question poorly.

Thanks for all you do

Q: re: TWX Time Warner
got online today and have seen a 15% increase. The only thing I can see in the news is TWX CEO Bewkes officially rejecting the offer from 21st Century Fox.
Is there any other news you have that accounts for such a significant jump?

Q: Western Forest Products, WEF. Whatdo you think of this Co. It has instituted dividend. Looks to be doing very well. I heard that there is a slow market period currently. I had 1000 shares, which I sold as the stock moved up in price. I want to buy, but looking for a bottom. Is this the bottom, or will it fall further. Any idea about the seasonality.I value your opinion a lot. Thanks.
Q: Hi Team,
In a question/answer from Claire today, you say bonds are riskier now due to possible increases in interest rates.
Which do you consider riskier overall, bonds facing rate increase pressure, or stocks, achieving historic highs and possibly lower future returns or a possible correction?
Thank you.
Michael

Q: Any thoughts about MOB.UN-X?
Q: We are retired with no company pension and depend heavily on dividends to augment our income. Our investments are Banks-22%, Industry-15%, Oil-20%, Pipelines-12% Utilities-15%, Telcom and Reits-9.5%, Cash-6.5%. I'm interested in adding another utility for stability and income. We now have positions in BEP.UN, EMA, NPI, VSN. Should we simply add to these, or add one of FTS, CPX, INE, CU, or do you have another suggestion?
Q: BIP.UN/TFSA
Hello,
We hold BIP.UN in a (joint) non-registered account and currently have no contribution room in our TFSA's. Come January I would like to transfer BIP.UN "in kind" into one or both of our TFSA's (the value will likely exceed the limit for any one account). From reading previous posts, I understand this can be done with certain caveats or conditions. I could not find any details on the Service Canada TFSA webpage. Would you be able to elaborate on how and "in-kind" transfer is done and what conditions need to be satisfied? Should it make any difference, we use RBC Action Direct - with whom I have not yet spoken about this issue.
If there is a "standard" procedure or set of guidelines to this process, perhaps a post or blog or something would benefit others who may not be familiar with such a process - I know I am completely unfamiliar with it....
Thanks!!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: I have three questions:
Tricon (tcn)doesn't seem to excite investors these days despite being a regular top pick on BNN. Do you think it's flatlining after a good run and what do you see three years from now?
What do you think of Spartan Energy (spe) at the $3.85 level for a three year investment?
Finally, you selected Interpipeline (ipl) as your last pick from a group of four when replying to another question today. I had held this stock since March of 2009 and it seems to be growing steadily and raising it's dividends. May I ask why it ranks behind Enbridge (enb), Altagas (ala) and Pembina (ppl)?
Thanks.
Steven

Q: Hi guys,
I am a small business owner and the incorporation has access to a little bit of cash (100k). I have been selecting stock for a portfolio but I am wary of pulling the trigger because of talk of the infamous correction. Would you suggest to wait for a market pullback to start buying the positions or go ahead in this highly valuated market? I am in no hurry and comfortable waiting up to 6 months with cash on hand.
Here is the stock in the portefolio:
US: MCD, GOOG, WFC, XOM, BRK, Qualcom, Deere, WMT, Air Lease, Cognizant
CA: THI, BCE, T, BEP.Un, Superior plus, Power Corp, Linamar, Surge, Sylogist, DHX Media
Thanks for the awesome service,
Richard
