Q: I was disappointed with the sizeable drop in the share price of Cineplex today. When I look at the attendance and revenue results for the past twelve years, attendance is essentially flat, not down, while revenues have shown a consistent increase (about 60% since 2009). Am I just trying to convince myself to hang in there in the face of the inevitable decline or do you think there is hope for this stock?

Q: This is in reference to Grant's Feb 15 question on reading materials in relation to bonds and fixed income investing. I found Hank Cunningham's "In Your Best Interest" to be a very good and useful book. It has the advantage of having a mainly Canadian focus. He also helpfully answered a question for me when I cold-emailed him, which was very nice of him. I also liked the parts of Benjamin Graham's "The Intelligent Investor" that dealt with managing a balanced portfolio of investments and using strategic rebalancing between fixed income and equities to good effect and for risk management.

Q: "Telus Corp. is warning of a “material” risk to its business if the Canadian government bans wireless carriers from working with equipment vendor Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd.
Vancouver-based Telus has worked with the vendor extensively over the past decade, and The Globe and Mail has reported that virtually 100 per cent of the company’s radio access network relies on Huawei gear."
I've read your responses to other queries on Telus. Does this (bit) of news alter your opinion that the billion dollars of infrastructure is likely already being taken into consideration. I for one would rather get rid of my telecoms than allow Huawei a foot hold.

Thanks as always

Q: Would you please give some income suggestions that pay at least 5%. I have been looking at Reits but there may be other sectors to consider. My object is income production with minimal effect by a market downturn or recession.

Q: I am just starting to research bonds as I don't own any and think it's probably a good way to diversify, especially when the recession hits. Is it a good time to start purchasing bonds? Which bonds would you recommend? Please recommend some reading materials to get up to speed on the subject.

Q: Hey Guys,
I follow the Income model , I see that Crius was removed recently , I decided to keep it for the time being and got a bit lucky with the takeover and jump in the price. Now that it will be stuck in the $7.50 range I'm considering selling it now. If I do sell it and want to replace it with something what do you think of Algonquin Power ( AQN)? Or is this to similar to BEP.un, H and VNR already in the model? If you still held KWH.un in the model and moved it out now what would it be replaced with?
Thanks
