Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: You have indicated the payout ratio for PEY based on cash flow is 42%. Morningstar says the payout ratio is 153% for dividend and capital spending. When judging the safety of the dividend why would the capital spending not be considered? When the dividend and capital spending are not covered by cash flow is the difference made up from borrowings?
Thanks
Mike

Q: In the Financial Times on Saturday John Dizard wrote a column more or less saying that BIP was vulnerable to a short attack because of it's corporate structure based in Bermuda. Are you able to comment on the article. It seems that the writer thinks the chances of a short attack are minimal but that there is enough fog to create questions.
Can You give your opinion on his thinking.
I know this is not a straight forward issue to answer but we novice investors learn much when you give your approach. This is much appreciated.
