Q: Hi

Can I have your opinion on shippers such as DSX and FRO and those juicy dividends at least for the next year. Longer term I know these can be risky.

Is there a best of breed shipper you would be comfortable recommending?

Thanks.

Q: CHPT held a lot of promise but now I find myself looking at a 30% loss on paper after the GM,F & TSLA news.

Any significant opportunity for a recovery or time to sell and move on?

If I do sell where could I deploy the funds in terms of staying with a growth stock ( with much less risk than Chpt , especially the balance sheet)

Thanks.

Q: Is it too late to get into Ford after its price appreciation? I’m considering switching from Magna to Ford. Do you have a preference. We also hold Granite REIT which does get much if it’s revenue from Magna properties, so wondering if holding Ford instead would improve diversification. Thanks lots!
