Q: Hi. This is my first time posting a question, or rather three questions. Why would a small-cap company like ABT want to issue dividends? Is there any benefit for them to do so? Is there dividend in more danger of being cut, because they are a small-cap company?

Q: NFI seems especially weak these days. The lower backlog seems a relatively minor issue. Of course investor sentiment is just something one has to live with. That being said do you think a strengthening Canadian dollar (against the US dollar) will impact revenues? The company seems well diversified with manufacturing facilities on both sides of the border. I suppose if they report revenue in Canadian dollars but receive it in US dollars there will be less revenue when the US dollars are converted into Canadian dollars. May I have your thoughts?
Thanks as always
Jim

Q: I find the negative news seems to always carry more weight than the positive. So on the flipside of the TD downgrade this week here is the positive news on CRH.RBC upgrades CRH to outperform today and on Monday Canaccord restated buy ratings stating the correction for the reimbursement change is over done.I'll also mention the analyst from TD that downgraded CRH is ranked as having a 37% success rate and is ranked 4026 out of 4601 analysts.It is crazy to me that a downgrade from an analyst with such a spotty record would impact the stock so much but I know its due to the current negative sentiment with reimbursement changes. This is just an fyi for those bothered by CRH's recent losses.
