Q: Hello Peter et al.

Ithaca has come out with the information circular for shareholders to tender their shares for $1.95. The circular puts the company potential down in its ability to grow. If it is so bad why are they trying to buy it lol!!!!! They must be taking lessons from Donald Trump's White House with 'False News'. I was disgusted with what I read. I believe the company has higher value potential and people invest to take risk to get reward and they say they want to protect us from the risk. It is more like they want to rob us of the reward!!!!!! I thought it was going to be a vote but from what I understand from the circular is you vote yes by tendering your shares for $1.95 and vote no by doing nothing. Is my interpretation correct?

What is your opinion of the takeover based on the circular and what is your opinion of the circular?

Thanks,

Brendan

Q: Hi I just watched this hedge fund manager short EIF I wonder what his credentials are I doubt reading a Finance Report are his forte .I believe any can and has the right to short a stock but when as a guest on BNN you do this it has a impact on the stock .
I believe that BNN should not allow exposure to these hedge Managers to help them advertise their short position .
As a shareholder of BCE I am going to be a pain in !@@&^
for the next while BNN should be held accountable
Kind Regards
Stan

Q: Hi All at 5i!!! I would like your advice. I would like to design a fixed , very, very (did I mention very?) conservative portfolio which will preserve my principle and earn me 4-5% income. This money will be held outside of a registered account. I own enough stocks, and do not want to add any more if I can help it. I own a good portion of the dividend aristocrats already. I understand that the taxation is not favorable outside of a registered account for fixed income and this may be a tall order considering how low interest rates are. Do you have any tools in your investment tool box to help me with this, and what would they be? Kind Regards, Tamara
