Q: I own FRU in a TFSA and although I appreciate the high dividend associated with this stock, I now understand that the dividend is not covered by either its Earnings or Cashflows.

Q1. With the NAV of the stock significantly down over the past few years and the dividend not being covered by either the Earnings or Cashflows, should I be worried about the relative safety of the dividend?

Q2. What are your thoughts on continuing to hold FRU in a TFSA and should a holder of FRU just cut their loss and replace FRU with some other stock?

Q3. What is your best idea as a FRU replacement should I need to sell FRU and replace it with another stock or ETF in the sector?

Thank you and I'll await your response.

Q: I have seen your recent comments and you believe the recent deal is good. My question is related to it's ~12% price drop in 3weeks. I have only seen positive analysis from all analysts. So my question to you is, is there any systemic or structural reason for the stock to be tanking well over the ~2% TSX reduction in the same time frame? What has changed in 3 weeks to spook investors?
