Q: The markets have been quite strong the last few days, yet WSP is not participating. Today, for example, the stock was down while the market was up nicely. My concern is, if the stock is weak in a strong market, what happens when the market comes back down. For some reason, my impression is that this company is not well liked by investors. Any idea why and what might turn this around?

Q: They made a recent purchase and issued a fair bit of stock today: will this purchase be a accretive to earnings, what will their debt to equity look like and will the debt servicing limit any dividend increases going forward? I have held this stock for quite a while & with dividends I am up 100%. Not sure whether to sell with this added debt., increased OS shares and high stock valuation?

Q: Hi Peter,
Any idea why High Liner and Shawcor are still dropping while others have recovered. Both went up after the sell off, but are now dropping again. Fundamentals appear to be good on both so am a bit puzzled. I am thinking of entering Starbucks. I have done very well on the stock and sold it when it hit the 80s. It has been sitting in the low 70s but the PE is very high. The technicals look okay. Your view is greatly appreciated.

Q: I have some money set aside and would like to take advantage of the pullback and buy 2 industrial stocks and 2 consumer stocks. I already own BGI.UN and DH, and the rest of my portfolio is well balanced in other sectors. I am looking at a long term hold with a view of overall return combining growth and div.
I'm looking at the following stocks in Consumer: SJR.B, BCE, T, PJC.A and ATB.B
And the following in Industrial: WTE, CAE, CNR, MG and AC.B
Could you suggest 2 in each sector (or suggest another stock that may be preferable to my choices) and let me know the basics of the choice?
Thanks so much, Kim
