Q: I see the last (and only?) time you were asked to comment on KPT was 3 months ago. Since then the stock has dropped around $2 (more than 10%). I'd appreciate your comment on the stock at these levels. Is the drop warranted?

Q: Hi Peter
what's your take on FTE now ORAN for some international exposure - is the dividend safe for now - I believe the dividend is at 11% - would you recommend for a long term hold -- could be a turnaround story

Q: Hi Team, I did a bit of research as to why NBD & ANS prices are going down, if you are not aware of this here is a government link that talks about soft lumber prices dropping since the peak in April (http://cfs.nrcan.gc.ca/selective-cuttings/43).
Hope this clears up a bit why stocks are down...
Continue your great work.

Q: Hi Peter and team,
One of the first companies I ever bought when I started investing 7 years ago was Canadian Oil Sands - now with oil hitting $100 I'm thinking about selling it for something with more growth. I want something that pays a decent, rising dividend. I'm leaning towards adding to my ESL, HCG or starting a position in CGX.

I currently own AD, AP.UN, AX.UN, BNP, BNS, BEP.UN, BIP.UN, CNR, COS, CSU, CFN, EIF, ESL, HCG, IPL.UN, KMP, PEY, RY, TD, THI, TOT and Telus all about equal weight. My 2 dogs are Penn West and Longview that I hope to clean up over the year.

Thank you for your valuable service!!
Brent

Q: I own shares in Galvanic Applied Sciences (TSXV:GAV). Last Friday the Company got a takeover offer for $1.70 per share. Apparently the buyer(s)have locked up over 67% of GAV shares. For the last two years, GAV is on $17M revenue run earning 0.22-0.23 in earnings. GAV has over $10.5M in cash/near cash and no debt. The Company has only 15.7M shares out. This offer appears to me like joke, a bad joke. Do you agree?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

With the Renewable Energy Developers, RDZ, being acquired by Capstone Infrastructure Corporation. Would now be a good time to buy RDZ at current prices to capture the dividend increase that comes with it? or should one just buy Capstone?

Q: Good afternoon,
I really appreciate your question and answer service. However a few people (hello Edward!) seem to expect you to be their personal portfolio manager. Not only does this put you in a difficult position, but it renders their questions rather pointless for the rest of your readers. Have you considered discouraging this type of query?
