Q: The ECB lowered its rate today and the independent views of FOMC goernors over the past week and our BOC have indicated interest rates are going nowhere in the foreseeable future. What is your opinion on corproate bonds?
Corby Distilleries report earnings yesterday and things looked pretty good. They increased the dividend as well. Any thoughts on their earnings and path forward? Also, they've done a special dividend around this time of year the past two years, any thoughts on if they might do one this year based on their financials?
All in all, this looks "steady as she goes" to me.
Q: PLB. Hi 5I. I sold a full position yesterday held in RRSP.
What 2-3 stocks would you recommend for a long term hold. Recently sold BAD & still hold HCG in same account. I would prefer 1 or 2 dividend payers . Thanks in advance.

I'm looking to buy some shares of las.a. Is it a strong buy at these levels? Are there any risks in there business that could hamper the stock value? Also is it better to put a bid in at the bid price or just pay the ask? As it seems to be very thin on the trading.

Q: NFI.
I am unsure whether you received my email. The earnings are out. What is your thought on them I like the dividend, and hold a small amount of the stock in my TFSA. Thanks Phyl in BC
Q: Peter - I have positions in the 5 major Canadian banks. All have dipped this morning, BMO far the worst. Yet I see that NA is actually up again. Is this just a regional thing or is there some value in NA that I can't understand. Should I drop BMO and buy NA?
