Q: Peter; The following might be part of the reason the stock is struggling- re question from Curtis
Walmart raises truckers’ starting salary to as much as $110,000 a year. The pay bump, from $87,500, comes as companies deal with a shortage of long-haul truckers. Relatedly, the video game developer Activision agreed to convert 1,100 of its temporary employees to full-time status, a sign that workers might be gaining more bargaining power.

Q: Hi,
Is there a good argument to buy a reit or a similar security as opposed to buying a rental property? I know that labour involved in maintaining, commissions involved in buying and selling can be high when it comes to buying a rental property. But in the last few years the capital gains from rentals have been high especially in the GTA area..Are the returns comparable?Thanks.

Regards,

Shyam

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Do you see BCE and Telus as over value territory as it seems investors are moving to safety driving up share prices.. I was thinking of selling some and buy back later time (i know it may seem market timing, but they have run up alot). If I did sell, what are the alternatives? Thanks for the explanation on BAM; the market call commentary was harsh. Lastly, would you consider Enerplus a good buy and is PE a good way to look at oil companies or is it mostly on cash flow? Thanks very much
