Q: hi folks

further to an earlier email on element with respect to mgmt

I remember when newcourt and steve hudson had their heyday in financing in the 1990's and early 2000's

from my recollection there was a lot of 'creative accounting' (a term updated recently to "financial engineering")

question: in light of this 2.2BB issue today (which increases the company capital structure by almost 40%) what makes anyone believe that this mgmt is any more competent than when they near bankrupted newcourt?

one thing of interest being they didn't borrow the whole 2.2bb

comments?

thanks for your insight

robert

Q: There was a 5.5% drop for CPX today with no news for the stock and no downgrades... Any idea what could have caused it? The stock seems to be on decline and it is 9% down YTD and almost 20% lower that it was at its highest point in Aug. 2014. I have about 2% position in CPX, do you suggest to take any actions or just patiently wait for recovery?

Q: Hi Peter. I would like some exposure to the consumer staple sector for my RRSP. However I find the dividend yield too low (less than 2%). Does it make sense to buy a REIT like Crombie that rents all the Sobey's and IGA stores and pays out a distribution that is more that five times what Empire pays out in dividend? Even if Empire increased its dividend by 10% every year for the next 10 years it still would not catch up to Crombie. Thank you in advance for your advice.

Q: Hello 5i team. Looking at buying some Power Corp based on good analyst 'Buy' consensus and 5i's recent comments. Already hold Great West and had been planning to continue holding. Is it 'acceptable' though to hold both a parent company and one of its subsidiaries in the same portfolio? Thanks.
