Q: Hi Peter & 5i: My discount broker's site shows Fiera Capital (FSZ) as last having gone ex dividend November 22, 2012, for a dividend that was paid out in December. It also lists FSZ as paying its dividends quarterly, most recently at 8 cents. It's now more than three months since the last ex dividend date and I haven't seen any announcements about the next one. Did I just miss it or is FSZ instituting a payment pattern change? Thanks.

Q: Fabrice Taylor recently wrote positively about ARC Resources in the Globe. The PE is high however they pay a high dividend too. In your opinion is there too much high expectations built into the price of the stock and are the high expectations unwarranted? If I understand correctly ARC are a gas producer so expectations should already contain some of the low gas prices. According to Mr. Taylor (and others) fracking intially produces high production which drops off quickly. If this is true it may make the stock more risky as they may have difficulty replacing reserves. Thanks

Q: Fabrice Taylor recently wrote positively about ShawCor in the Globe. He didn't mention which stock but presumably he meant the non-voting shares (SCL.A). If I understand correctly the dual class share structure will be changed in the near future. Their numbers look good to me except the dividend is low. Do you like the company, do you think the share structure is being changed to facilitate a take-over and do you think the dividend will be raised? Thanks.

Q: Peter:

Radiant Communications (TSXV: RCN)just announced a going private transaction at $0.85. Given the Company's cash position, financial results and recent Peer 1 Networks takeover deal, this offer appears that they are trying to steal the company away from the public shareholders. Do you agree?
