Q: I have done well with eci, and as a result of the recent price decrease, I am considering adding more to bring my holdings from about 2.5% of total portfolio to 4%. I hold this for income, and am not looking for capital gains. Do you consider the dividend sustainable (payout %?) and see any dangers to the stock price?
Thank you

Q: Re the recent drop, there is concern that the new government in Alberta may phase out coal by 2020. Capital Power's coal plants will last at least 10 years longer so this would be a significant hit to the value of their capital. addition: On my earlier question,I stated that the NDP platform favored closing coal plants in 2020 - it should have read, 2030. CPX plants are expected to be operational to 2040 - they are in good shape - so if the government follows through it will be a negative and require higher capital spending.

Q: I believe you've referred to DHX as being a cyclical stock. I'd appreciate if you could explain why.... I'm trying to understand this term and the application.
Thanks in advance!

Q: There was a 5.5% drop for CPX today with no news for the stock and no downgrades... Any idea what could have caused it? The stock seems to be on decline and it is 9% down YTD and almost 20% lower that it was at its highest point in Aug. 2014. I have about 2% position in CPX, do you suggest to take any actions or just patiently wait for recovery?

Q: Hi,
I own CSE at $4.05 Do you guys think it's a buy sell or hold at today's level? I don't mind doubling down if you think they can sustain the dividend and the price can gradually come back. Or, do you think the downside risk of losing the Bristol water appeal could drag the share price lower if it's not already baked in?

Thank you
