Q: Could you provide me with a few examples of companies or sectors which could be considered blue chip, dividend paying, non-cyclical? I would like to move some of my cash to these types of stock. I currently have a 30%+ cash balance overall.

Thank you......Ron

Q: It seems that there has been a steady flow to the exits on Alimentation after the 5 cent miss. P&F chart shows a triple bottom breakdown today . We are down almost $10.00 from the high with a prediction that it is expected to come back 10%. Do you feel that there is something that is changing in their business , or is this profit taking ?

Q: For a long term hold of three years or longer, which one between NTR and ATD.B would you recommend in terms of a combined return (growth + yield)? They are about the same size in market cap now, but NTR has a higher dividend yield while ATD.B is very strong in growth in the past five years. Thanks.

Q: Peter,

I am trying to get a handle on the way the industry calculates debt to equity ratio. I look at ATD.B and on 5-I it shows .84. Morningstar shows 1.17. They don't seem to include other LT liabilities. My calculation shows 15,577 / 7563 = 2.05 ( April 2019 YE).
Please advise the calculation method that is consistent in the industry so I can compare apples to apples with different companies.

Thank you,

Paul

Q: Trying to decide what to do with this company which has done very well recently and is now selling above analysts one year target. After being under water for a couple of years I'm now up 30%. It's grown to 50% of my TFSA tho' less than 3% of my overall portfolio. Should I stay the course? Reduce? Sell outright and hope for a dip?
Appreciate your comments, please.
