Q: If I look at STC I see that the 52 week high is $20.36 and also that from looking at analyst ratings via TD I notice that 3 out of 3 rate it a buy with a price target of $16.17. When I see something like that it gives me a warm fuzzy that this is a good buy at this level and appears to have a lot of upside. I fully realize that there is no guarantee that just because it went that high in the past it does not mean that it will go back to that level. Having said that, it appears to have a lot of potential as I see it. You also seem to like this one.

Just to make a comparison (I know it is a different sector but that does not matter) let’s have a look at CS. This is one that 5I appears to like as well and that I am considering buying. TD has this one showing as 6 out of 6 analysts rating a it a buy but the price target is $5.83 (-3.01% downside).

Why would the price target on this one be so low and how much potential does this have in your opinion?

Q: Back on Nov 2 nd, in answering a question about LUMN …you mentioned concerns about “ glaring issues “.

As is typical 5i really nailed that issue.

Now they have eliminated one of the reasons I own the stock ( namely the dividend).

According to Rbc the PE is 2.6. At the current depressed price do you see any significant upside potential over the next 3-6 months ?

Thanks for your help.

PS I also own AQN which cut its dividend but at least did not eliminate it.
Can we read anything into this? More of the same in the year ahead.

Q: I sent you a question(s) on CFX this morning. Since then I have been educating myself a little bit more about the company. There seems to be very little analyst or "expert" interest in this stock (stockchase shows no one talking about CFX for a number of years). I also found out that it has VERY light trading. Is that because the parent company Canfor Forest Products holds the majority of the shares? Since it trades lightly I know the professional money will say that the stock has no liquidity. But I am a retail guy that would start with a 1000 shares and may get up to 5000 shares max. Should I be that concerned about liquidity? If I leg into this stock I will promise myself not to think of it has a quick source of cash if the mark has a systemic leg down. B thyat tI mean if the market has a rough patch I will be willing to wait to sell cfx and instead sell something else if I think I need cash? Good strategy? I still have not bought since this stock has a lot of negatives and little shareholder following but it seems to be like a possible turn around stock especially if Chinese pulp demand grows because of a reopening of their economy. Also the only financials I can find on this company are together on a webpage with Canfor Frorest Products which makes in confusing to read. Do you get your info from your Bloomberg Terminal and if so is there aa cleaner way for a retail guy like me to read CFX quarterlies?
