Q: Not sure how I ended up with his company in my portfolio....obviously I'm not paying attention. Who are they? Are they worth holding? I prefer dividend paying stocks but if theres a bright future I'd hold onto them. I bought QST at 42 cents way back when and have done well with that non dividend paying stock.

Q: Hello Peter, I have smallish positions in People and ECN in my TFSA. With this year's TFSA contribution, I'm considering topping up one or both of these positions for long-term holds. Which of these two would you favour? Or, if you favour both equally, would you concur with buying both, or do you think this precious TFSA money should go into some of the other TFSA-type stocks you've suggested recently. Thanks!

  • $6.00 P/E (TTM): 14.76X Cap: $38M

Q: I am looking over VCI for yield. I see the last payment was a paltry .03! Compare this to a .13 payout earlier it seems a rather large fluctuation.
Is this strictly a quarter to quarter variation in the business or did they overpay early and cut back subsequently? I was hoping to see more stability in payout considering the lack of growth in the name. Could you give some colour on all this?

TIA
