  • View Reports on TCN

Q: In a recent answer to Ed you recommended this company as one of the top Canadian REITS that hold US properties ("Tricon (TCN) would be the top of the list." ). However, when I took a look, it is today $12.86, and 5 years ago was 12.00 so not much capital appreciation. The distribution is only 2.2%. It has been the same ($.07) for 5 years, and was one cent less ($.06) for about 5 years before that. In light of what seems to me very lacklustre performance, what makes you put this at the top of your list? Thanks!

Q: Was this addition to your growth portfolio on Apri1 a April fool joke?
This is a very speculative penny stock being pushed by Reddit.
Maybe you should start a new portfolio for speculative growth companies such as Mrs and other small companies in your growth portfolio such as Xbc etc.
