Q: 10:34 AM 11/7/2018
In this morning's answer to Grant you said ; "TRP debt is about 7X cash flow; PPL about 3.5%.[I presume you meant 3.5X].

In any event when I look at the Companies search pages for these companies which metrics should I look at to find out the level of debt for each. I see no numbers that might correspond to 7X for TRP or 3.5X for PPL.

Thanks........... Paul K

Q: SPB's Q3 looks good in terms of trending upwards in most respects. However, the market measures a stock's results based on expectations, In that case did the results meet those expectations for Q3 and the future? Also, is there any chance SPB will increase its dividends? It has been stuck at $0.06 a month for years. Thank you.

Q: Good morning team,

How much will the share price fall if ALA decides to reduce its dividend by half?

Some may actually like the company more for at least the ambiguity about ALA's future will be significantly reduced.

Will you be a buyer in an anticipation of such a move by ALA or do you think ALA management is too keen to keep its word about not cutting the dividend.

Thanks as always!

Q: Hi,
Thanks always for your advice, it's been very helpful.
Part of my investing strategy is to hold company shares (where possible) in AST or Computershare so I can use the dripping programs for the tax break. I am down drastically with CJR.B - should I sell and move on? Also, I hold ENB, NTR and PPL all of which have suspended their drip programs. Are they worth holding, so I can do something with the cash dividends or should I move on from them. All of my moving on would be to purchase other companies that drip.
thanks

Q: Do you think there is a possibility that ALA could go bankrupt? Based on all the negative decisions that have eroded share value, it would appear to me that a wholesale change of the Board of Directors could be welcome news for this company. Who could make this happen?
