Q: As I understand it, the ECI buyout by BIP.UN gives ECI shareholders the options of: 1. $29 cash per shares ("cash option"), and 2. BIP.UN units on a prorated basis + balance in cash ("combo option"). ECI shareholders, by default (those making no election), will get the cash option. Simple enough.
Do you know the timing of such election? Some friends of mine claim to have received both the voting and election materials, while I only received the voting info. I couldn't get through to the company for clarification. I don't want to be forced to accept the cash option (due to tax considerations).
Would you by any chance know more about the timing of the voting and election processes in this buyout? Thanks.

Q: can you explain CEFs in a simple staight forward way? I noticed that some have significantly higher fees than none CEFs. What is driving this? Are there tax implications for a canadian holding a CEF in either a registered or non-registered account. i also notice some issue K-1s and some issue 1099s. What the heck is the difference and how does this impact me as a Canadian investor. If you could also point me to a resource that would be fantastic!

Q: There have been no questions about this company in a year.
And the two most recent, elicited more-or-less opposite responses.
Could you provide a current opinion, when the dividend was last cut or increased and what the current short position is.
If you like something better, I would be interested to know.
Thanks,
Kyle

Also, any idea how much free cash flow is being lost by ALA as a result of the divestitures?

Q: I have recently taken over managing a 401K that is comprised of many ETFs. I have never owned an ETF prior but am wondering if this setup is reasonable. It feels like too many ETFs with a fair bit of overlap. Currently equal weights of: XLV, XLI, XLY, XLK, XLRE, XLU, XLP, XLF, XLC, XLE. Your thoughts - some of these the fees are a bit high as well!

Chrystal ball gazing time again. I am thinking of selling transcontinental for a tax loss. I just bought it seems strange to be selling it. I have a feeling that it won't move much until the next quarterly report, if at all. would you agree that it is relativly safe to sell and buy bak at a similat price in 30 days? i would wait a bit, though, to see if it bounces up a bit in the next week or two, as it has been heavily sold and could be in for at least a little bounce.
thanks for all the help.
