Q: Hi folks, comments please on Q4/18 results for Husky hse/t. They were bad as per most oil companies reporting Q4, but also problems at West White Rose & Lima. Would you start a position here in $14's for a rebound in stock/oil sector. Would you rate it a buy/hold/sell. Thanks as always, jb Piedmont Qc

Q: I own a number of higher investment grade perpetual preferreds. They all took a dive in December, but since then my Westcoast and Royal Bank preferreds have risen back to over their $25 issue price. However, my GWO, PWF and even Intact financial preferreds have not. They are all of good credit quality. What do you think accounts for this disparity? I may buy more of the losers.

Q: When it comes to how liquid a stock or ETF is on a daily basis, what would you suggest is the minimum amount trading you would like to see if you were to buy?. I have a couple of different accounts that I use different strategies and one of my thoughts is if you had a sizeable position in and etf or stock that trades under 10k or 100k a day would this not be of great risk if a person needed to get out of it in a timely fashion due to market conditions or personal need? Some examples of securities I am looking at or own are PBH, XTR, XTC, VFV. I am well diversified with my investments and typically look to buy and hold just wanting some input on this topic. Thanks keep up the great work

Q: In response to the question about GICs through TD Waterhouse. Under the research tab, click on GICs. That will bring up a list of those available. from TDW. You can't buy them online yourself though. There's a number you can call to order them.( The rates are not quite as good as those directly through the issuer.)

Q: Hi Guys.
I have owned High Liner for quite a while and am fine waiting through their hopefully successful turnaround. With the earnings report today I thought the stock would fall but it is up 3 % today. I saw this statement in the earnings release and it seems to suggest the dividend will be cut:

Dividend & Capital Structure

"Today, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a quarterly dividend of CAD$0.145 per share on the Company's common shares payable on March 15, 2019 to holders of record on March 1, 2019. The Board is continuing to review the Company's capital structure to determine the prudent use of capital and will provide an update when the Company reports its financial results for the first quarter of 2019 in May."

What do you think people saw positive in the earning release? Any idea of what the dividend payout ratio is, and whether it is safe?

Love your service

Stuart
