Q: Canadian Tire REIT (CRT.UN) question asked by Paul Nov 20/13:

"It is intended that the first distribution of CT REIT will be in the amount of $0.070194 per Unit for the period from today to November 30, 2013 and will be paid on December 13, 2013. Thereafter, CT REIT intends to make monthly cash distributions of $0.054167 per Unit, which are initially expected to provide an annual yield of 6.50%."

Q: Hi,

I'm looking at BCI because it has a good dividend, high ROE and low beta as I want a low risk dividend payer with some growth. I read your previous comment and wonder what
1) you think of it now?
2)is it suitable for me?
3) is it likely to suffer when interest rates rise?
thanks Graeme

Q: Hi Team,
I hold some Magna (MG) as well as some Toyota (TM) and Ford (F).
All have pulled back recently, since Magna's report, which I thought was a positive one. Can I have your view on why automotive stocks seem to be pulling back in unison?

Q: TRADING TIPS Peter, I have access to real time trading on Globeinvestor. Often when seeing a price for a stock under consideration, after a closer look, there are often big gaps between bid and ask and far fewer trades on offer either way. Could you give us general tips as to when to pull the trigger.

Q: A general question.
I have several REITs and love the monthly dividends but several are under water such as CUF.UN, D.UN, HR.UN, AX.UN

Will the tide ever rise again on REITs in general?
Should I just sit back wait it out and enjoy the monthly divs?

Q: Hello Peter,
I recently added a half position of Boston Pizza to my 20 stock portfolio. Although I’m in for the long term BPF.UN has dropped by 9% since.
Has something changed it this company that I should re-evaluate and sell or is this market related? Thanks for your great service. Ronald
