Q: HCG is down more than 13% the last 5 days. The current price is well below the 200 day moving average. Over the last 5 days it is my biggest loser. Can you provide any insight for the decline and would you suggest adding to my position at these levels. Thank you

Hello Peter
I am looking for safety of dividends and dividend growth, with some share price growth too, and can add about 1% to an existing position.
I am considering adding to one of :
Chartwell CSH.UN - I have a 0.1% starter position..... yield 4.6%.
Emera EMA - I have a 2.0% position........ yield 4.04%.
Enbridge ENB - I have a 2.4% position............yield about 3.07 after latest increase.
Enbridge Income Fund ENF - I have a 5% position............... yield 4.48%.
Which has the least liklihood of a dividend cut, and which would you pick, and why would you choose the one you do.
Thank You ....... Paul K

Q: I note that AHF have $7.1B in AUM while Gluskin Sheff have $8.1B (only $1B more) but GS trades at ~$28 while AHF is only ~$0.88. It seems to me that some wealth management firm could pick up an easy $7B in AUM for a cheap price buy buying AHF.
(1) Why the discrepancy ?
(2)Is there a metric such as AUM per share that applies to Wealth Management companies to determine their value?

Q: Hello,
I have some Northland Power NPI which you had been positive on, though a few days ago you suggested a switch to AQN. Has your positive feeling changed? Should I consider buying more since it is down now? Why the drop when other utilities seem okay?
Thanks very much

Q: H&R creates a strategic alliance with PSP Investments and Crestpoint through the sale of an interest in over $1.4 billion of industrial properties to launch a new industrial platform
8:00AM ET on Wednesday Dec 03, 2014 by CNW Group
H&R Real Estate Investment Trust ("H&R") (TSX: HR.UN; HR.DB.D; HR.DB.E and HR.DB.H) announced today that it has entered into agreements to sell to an affiliate of the Public Sector Pension Investment Board ("PSP Investments") and affiliates of Crestpoint Real Estate Investments Ltd. ("Crestpoint") a 50% interest in a portfolio of Canadian industrial properties and a 49.5% interest in a portfolio of U.S. industrial properties (collectively the "Portfolio") for a total purchase price of approximately C$731 million. H&R will remain the property manager and collect industry standard fees. The Portfolio consists of a total of 101 properties comprising approximately 19.5 million sq. ft. of industrial space located in Canada and in the United States. The sale transactions are expected to close in two tranches, in December 2014 and in February 2015, subject to customary closing conditions.
This was the announcement that sent HR on a new plunge the other day. I found it extremely odd ball that the news did not come from HR rather then the secondary party. However be that as it may, what exactly in fundamental terms does there mean for HR investors? In technical terms it means sell calls, buy puts and watch out for a dividend cut. What actually is taking place here?

Q: How will the lower price of oil affect revenues for Badger? How much of their business is energy related? I have held badger since it was an income trust and wondering if I should lighten up.
Q: I noticed that on my TDW brokerage statements, the regular payment is recorded as a "distribution" even though it is summarized in monthly "dividends" total. It's made me question whether Boyd is paying out a dividend or something else.
Can you please shed some light on this before I contact the broker?

Q: RE: NAL.TO
I think the company may be affected by lower oil prices in two ways: First, it may get let work to do; and second, the recovered oil may get a lower price.
After taking consideration of the new reality, would you recommend it as part of a portfolio? Can we say Newalta is a potential Peter Lynch favorite that is boring and involving dirty, even disgusting, wastes?
