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

Q: Hi!

Here is a puzzler for you....

In essence my question boils down to if/when one should sell an "A"- quality. dividend paying stock.

Example: I bought 100 shares of BNS at $55 and it went all the way to $92. I am still holding it (did not sell at all). It is now at $65. I get about $400/year in dividends.

A quick calculation shows that had I sold at $92, I would have gained about $4000 which is about 10 years worth of dividends without the wait.

Is there a handy approach to win in this sort of situation?

Q: Do we know which large customer did NVEI lose? At what cost?

We often see sell/buy transactions with no divulged details. Being naïve, shouldn’t the investors know these details, when they could impact the financials. Do analysts know more than we do? I’m aware we are talking private companies and their competitors, but it is a bit frustrating.

Thanks for your work.

Q: SJ: Organic growth in infrastructure related biz's seems to have slowed from 27% to 10% in Q2 which was not as robust as Q1. Inventory and receivables seriously gobbled up cash flow, down substantially in Q2 and negative in half. Hence shares were down 4% yesterday (after indicating up).
What do you make of this?
