Q: Hi 5i - Exco just reported their quarter and have some noise because of discontinued operations in Bulgaria with ALC. (impairment charge) - I think its a wise move given the loss in those operations. Adjusted earnings look decent and the board raised the dividend 6% - whats your team's take on the quarter and going forward business plus valuation ?

Respect, Patrick

Q: Abt
Excellent results by Absolute, new management is doing a great job.....and then the news of a big contract with a very large US schooldistrict.
Everything is lining up for a takeover here.....I am convinced that this will happen sooner than later.
Stadium Capital has a 15% stake and the new CEO sold a company to BlackBerry before.
Is there a chance that ABT comes back in your portfolio?

Q: What is your opinion on these two Enbridge capital structures? ENS, although riskier, offers currently a higher dividend than the issue price. I could not find the current value of the preferred shares.
Thank you for your input!

Q: I bought Fiera some time ago and am at a loss, but, do appreciate the dividend being paid. I am a senior, very conservative investor and a "buy and hold" investor to a serious fault. Please advise if the dividend is sustainable. Should this be sold or can I buy more to bring my cost down? I know you are not a fan of averaging down. Please suggest other stocks that provide a good dividend and have a favourable outlook.
Thank you for your great service.
