Q: Good Afternoon to all
TD Bank issues step-up notes callable every 6 months by issuer. A new issue October 2013 due October 2018 pays from 2.40 to 3.40 over the period. Considering the current low rates and risks of bond ETF'S would you recommend a small purchase 3% of total portfolio in this issue?
Thanks

Q: Do you have an opinion on Toscana Energy Income (TEI)? Is the 11% dividend sustainable? Room for growth at all in the unit price? Thanks a lot.

Q: AFN? You seem high on this company even though it sells at a huge multiple to EPS and cash flow. Cash flow barely covers dividend right now and ROE is a single digit-so, to me, it appears way ahead of the fundamentals. Why would I buy this stock??

Q: Re: Superficial loss rule
I hope you haven't previously answered this question. I scrolled back a long way and couldn't find it. If you have then please just ignore the question.
Can one sidestep the 30 loss rule by selling at a loss in one account (say, a direct trading) but buying back within the 30 days in another account (say, RRSP) or does the rule apply to the individual not the particular accounts? Thanks as always,
Neil

Q: Hi Peter,
How would you suggest playing Ithaca Energy(IAE) after today's excellent drill results on the Stella field? I am up 15% on my holding, over a period of 18 months, but still believe that it is undervalued by 50%. Thank you for your help.

Q: Question on SNC Lavalin (SNC). Their earnings are supposed to jump next year to $2.79. However, from there, their earnings are supposed to fall to $2.23 by 2017.

CIBC issued a report on SNC on Sept 4 where they value their operating business at $19 a share, their infrastructure concession investments at $28 a share, and their net cash at $3 a share.

Is it possible to reconcile both ideas? Is it possible to think SNC earnings per share will fall to $2.23 by 2017 but also think the sum of their parts is worth $50 today?

Q: I wonder if your view of RNW as an income stock has changed in the past month. Compared to AQN, FTS, BEP.UN and CSE, it has held its value while the others have lost 2-7%. It pays a healthy monthly dividend with a decent payout ratio and its power contracts are reasonably long term and I understand protected from inflation. Other than it is new, is there really anything to dislike. Thanks.
