Q: Of the three following companies, bad,hlf, or cpg which do you feel trade at a cheap valuation and has the most upside. I like the div of CPU and was thinking that it was oversold but hlf and bad also look cheap and should outperform next year. Thanks Richard

Q: With Loblaw'S (L-T)recent announcement of the conversion of their properties to a REIT I am finally making some money with them, about a 7% gain. I hesitate to sell because I think there is still good potential for further increases in their stock price due to the major changes that they are implementing in their stores including technological changes. What is your opinion. Thanks. (Gerry)

Q: ATP. The plus side to the significant drop in share price is the resulting increase in the % yield, now 10.3%. A very tempting buy here, but can the yield be considered safe?
Thank you.

Q: CWT.UN? My wife owns in her RRSP the conv. debenture-pd par-one more yr. left. She got a call from CIBC to ask her to convert to shares @$25.50 eac. Deb. pays 6.65% per yr. WE each own CWT as part of ETF XRE which we have owned for 4 years-so, I would think it makes sense to convert and sell to make a tax sheltered gain in RRSP? Your thoughts pl Peter. Thank you...JP

Q: With the announcement that CNOOC was being allowed to acquire Nexen, I would have expected the Nexen shares to move to CNOOC’s offer price of $27.50, but as of Monday afternoon, the shares high is $26.67. Why are the shares not trading at $27.50? That is the price I hope to sell at. Thanks … Cal

Q: HLP.UN recently announced its first Q report which was in line with their forecast. In your review in July you advised it was too new to really give it a recommendation. Given its rather positive report would you advise to start accumulating some shares at this time?

Q: No question, just a quick update to cal's question regarding preferred shares. prefinfo.com is an excellent resource for those of us without 24/7 access to a bloomberg terminal. It covers call/retraction dates, cumulative/non-cumulative dividends, fixed to float rates, etc.

As a side note Peter, have you considered adding a links section to the site? It could be very useful to have "approved" links on a sidebar, things like sedi, sedar, prefinfo and the like, which are quite reliable sources of information for retail investors.
