Q: If I hold ZPR in my portfolio, should I consider this as my Financial and utilities allocation? Most of the preferred shares in this fund are from banks and utilities. Or should this be considered fixed income?

Q: Hi: I have watched the decline of Atco Ltd. shares for the past two years and wonder if it will ever resume an upward trend again . Do you have a strategy for noticing a trend change in a long slow declining stock. Does it need a major event to change the decline of could it quietly bottom out and change direction. Thank you for your reply.
Q: Can you comment on the Early warning report on Sedar about DHX which just came out after hours. It says someone acquired 100% of PVV shares? What does this mean? Thanks
Q: https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2018/05/03/premier-calls-allegations-against-nursing-homes-disturbing-and-upsetting.html
Would this type of allegation lead you to cut half the position or perhaps entirely? I have quite a large (overweight position) in SIA and have it as a DRIP for a number of years. I have about 40 percent of my position in free shares and want to continue to build my portfolio around the aging demographic. I have considered selling some SIA and putting a bit more into SIS as well as Park Lawn, but the dividend income being re-invested has done me well and provides a nice safety net on a long term hold. THoughts?

Q: I have about 30,000 in US cash and was looking for a suggestion as to how to deploy it. Generally, I am more conservative in the cash accounts and I do not need to access the money in the near future. An ETF would be considered. I currently have JPM and HD.

Q: Do you see connection between this stock hitting new 52 day low two days in a row and election rhetoric by opposition parties to lower hydro bills by repurchasing shares sold by liberals or firing current CEO. Can Avista merger be stopped which I believe has already been approved by regulators. Do you still recommend Hydro One shares to income oriented investor.

Q: Can I get your opinion on Questor Technology? I like the stock but I recently saw some insider sales in April. Can you tell me what percentage decrease in insider ownership those sales represented? Or a before and after percent insider ownership? Do you see the selling as a red flag or nothing to worry about? What is your expectation for q1? Thanks
Q: Rager just announced Q1 earnings with boe/d production averaging more than 24k/d and provided more details on East Duvernay well #1 normalized production rates.
Please share your opinion on the news. Looks like shares can move up on Duvernay results once analysts re-build models to include that acreage and additional drilling inventory.
I'm hoping RRX decides to stay one unit with the Viking cash flows paying for the Duvernay drilling, especially in this environment of strengthening commodity prices.

Q: What should I do?....For some years, I have held TOU and SGY as energy sector positions in a well diversified balance portfolio. Both down 49% and 57%. Now wondering, is it time for me to take action to reduce or just sell all, given recent price movement up but not likely crude price going considerable higher than now, aka 70$. What say you?........Tom

Q: GS reported earnings yesterday. If I understand the report correctly, the quarterly earnings do not appear to cover the quarterly dividend. Plus, a special dividend is being paid. Can you please discuss/ explain the report and advise whether, in your opinion, the situation is sustainable? Thank you kindly in advance for your reply. Following these results would you continue to prefer FSZ over GS?
