Q: I have held ALA for many years, I have some cash to deploy in the account holding ALA. All my other holdings in that account have bounced to start 2023 with ALA the glaring exception who lost steam and gave back its gains. Good time to buy the dip on ALA and worst case I get the 3.7% div for the rest of 2023? You don't seem to be huge fans based on replies to other ALA questions. I don't see a huge downside if markets continue to be shaky and with the interest rate hike cycle hopefully nearing an end.

Q: Hi, I think, my question may have been lost due to time out. Capital Power has been bit of a disappointment, since we took a full 5% position with ACB of $50, in mid 2022. After reaching a high of $52-53, stock has been languishing around $41-$43 and does not seem to get any traction. I am aware that valuations in Utilities sector have been impacted, due to likelihood of higher interest rates for longer. But, CPX share price has lagged almost 10% more than its peers like FTS. Recent results also failed to inspire any confidence. Analysts are predicting lower power prices in Alberta, through 2024. Dividend yield of 4.75% seems to be the only solace.

Do you see any catalyst which could help recover stock price, over near term ? Or, it would make sense to take a capital loss (in taxable account) and reallocate funds to another sector ( e.g., Industrials - ATS/TFII ), which appears to have some tailwind. We also have a 6% position in FTS, in utilities sector and are underweight Industrials.

Thank You
