Q: Hi Ryan what is the announcement of January 5 mean?
Kind regards Stan

Q: I have some money to deploy, and would like to concentrate on dividend paying stocks above. Do you think at the current price points I can buy in or would it be wise to wait for any to come down a bit? I am looking to create some dividend income.
Thanks

Q: I would like to add small amounts to the above listed existing positions. How would you rank these? Which one's may likely drop further and more patience would be required?
Thank you!

Q: I have a substantial holding percentage wise of my portfolio in AW.UN. What are the factors that are resulting in the dramatic recent slip of share price? I realize interest rates and general investor sediment but is the dividend secure are they facing a debt crisis? Am I missing something? would you buy at these levels?

Q: Hi Peter:
Season greetings to you and your team.
I would like your opinion on the trade(s) I was thinking about.
1) Sell full positions in POW and NFI.
I've had POW for 5 years and it has done nothing during that time except go down about 20%. However, I also think that at $24.00 it has potentially hit a bottom support number. I would be happy collecting the nice dividend it pays.
I also think based on your recent answers to questions that NFI has potential going forward.
2) If I sold POW and NFI, I would add to the positions that I already have of the other companies that are mentioned.
I'm well diversified and this would not interfere with my sector or geographical weightings or the amount of dividends I am receiving.
I think both scenarios have their positive attributes and would appreciate your thoughts. Do the trade or remain the course.
Thank you very much for your valued opinion.

Q: Would you be able to rate the above in order of preference based on overall appreciation/performance over next 2-3yrs - also confirm whether you would be a buyer of any or all of them at this point in time and finally what exposure does each have to the Alberta economy.

Q: A & W issued a press release today that they are out of stock their new veggy Beyond Meat Burger and have to take it off the menu for now. It will be interesting to see if the robust sales will make a material impact on royalties.

Q: I currently own TOY (my only holding for Cyclical Consumer). I did have MG but sold it. I am wondering for a RRSP with a long time frame which 2-3 stocks of the list BCI, DOL, DOO. GSY, CCL.B. AW.UN which be best as I am trying to increase my holdings in this sector.
Thanks

Q: Boston Pizza has been declining for the last three months and in particular since the release of the quarterly earnings. What would be your opinion of the company going forward.
Please compare Boston Pizza with A&W and the Keg as to which would be a better choice.
Are there other restaurant royalty companies I should be looking at?
Thanks for the excellent service.

Q: I was looking for the quarterly report for A&W that the TMX site reported would be released on the morning of July 24 by newswire. I can find nothing. What is this 'newswire' and how does one access it?

Q: AW.UN is up over 6% in the past two days. Volume has been more than 2x the norm on both days. I don't see anything that is causing the interest. They report on July 24.

Q: As of yesterday A & W serves Beyond Burger at all its locations, a veggie burger which has received rave reviews in the US. I think this may materially benefit revenue and profitability. People were lining up outside a location in Vaughan, Ontario to try it.

Q: What would be your favourite monthly income stock recommendation?
