Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I am break even in my holding of STN in my RRSP account. It had a large gain today and reports tomorrow. I am considering selling that position and trading into a stock in the same sector, such as NFI, WSP or MDA, all of which have had recent pullbacks. What would be your recommendation for my RRSP?
Thanks, Peter

Q: I don't own this stock, & know you are not a big fan of this stock, but I read a blog a week ago or so, where the person was highlighting the positive of this company. From what I recall it was stated that there div. was in the range of 40 -45% of cash flow. In there last q report there cash flow increased. Also, the miss was due to a change in progressing charges from a one time up front charge to a unit charge & he claimed this is what caused the miss on earnings. Would you agree with this statement. I question why they wouldn't cancel the div. & thus be able to pay down more than 20 million dollars as reported. Would greatly appreciate your insight.
