Q: HPS and HPF - what are the prospects for these two funds, and I assume the outlook for and relevance of preferred interest rates to investment in one of these funds?

HPS.A - not related to the above - do you expect Hammond to raise capital by way of share issue, or otherwise, for the announced 40m expansion commitment.

Q: Chesswood, North American Construction and Hammond Power Systems all produced some very good Q3 results. All look very cheap on a p/e basis. Would like to hear some comments about each as possible purchases in a diversified portfolio. I hold some HPS, but not the other 2.

Q: Another stock that just came across my radar. Looks like management is executing, pays a dividend and is in a sector which could see continued activity and growth. I realize its thinly traded. Would you pull the trigger on this one?

Q: I'm interested in Hammond and would like your input. They both seem very inexpensive but HPS has a larger dividend (and a higher P/E).
Do you like either right now? Prefer one over the other?

Q: The earning for the year look decent. Too bad they give little public guidance but my understanding is that business has picked up and they project double digit growth over the next few years. Based on that scanty information do you think the stock is undervalued? I like the 3.70% divy while I wait for the company to be discovered.

Q: Last week on BNN Bloomberg the ceo mentioned that they are supplying to Tesla. On the company website they have technical/ marketing papers that explain the use of their transformers in electric power stations and how there will be large demand for more dry transformers as the demand for charging cars increases. I note they opened a plant in Reno Nevada in January 2020 that is 3 times larger than their other plants nearby and is not meant to replace current plants but to add capacity. Tesla has a big battery factory in Nevada.

Q: Hammond Power Solutions was featured on BNN yesterday. They seem to have a history of paying a good dividend (4%) and potentially in a position to catch the benefits from the renewable energy wave. Would you invest in this stock, or are there any similar investments that are a better play you'd suggest? I'm considering selling some gold mining stocks in KNT to buy HPS to diversify my portfolio a bit, I won't be drawing from my RRSP for 50+ years.
