Q: Would appreciate your analysis and thoughts on Seaspan. Had doubled up and was thinking of selling and putting funds into 2 more US equities. Looking more for growth and capital appreciation but fine with a dividend if possible.
Which 2 would you suggest in any sector and do you think Seaspan's recent news is the reason for the 14% drop in the last month.
Thanks Gary

Q: I was interested in Bob's question about SSW, so tried to check it out on the internet. My TD Webroker site had no news and elsewhere, I found nothing that would explain the sudden collapse in stock prices - only a bunch of crappy sites that seem to have boilerplate discussions of movements in price, but zero analysis.

Any ideas as to what happened on this stock ? Where can I look to find answers ?

Q: Further to my last, is the stock price decline perhaps related to an anticipated decline in dividend ?? In April the dividend of 13 cents a quarter (down from .38 in January) gave a price of around 6.50, for a yield of 8%. At a price of 5.20, 8% would give a quarterly dividend of 10 cents or so. Would you agree that the market seems to be factoring in a decline in dividend for Q2 ?
