Q: I really cannot believe the beating that the railways are taking in the last week or so.They say that is is from the slow economy in Canada.Do you think they are over sold at this point and would it be a good time to buy.

Q: Just thought I would add to David's question on owning a REIT or a condo. The big difference in favour of owning a condo is your ROI. You can buy a 500k asset with only 20% down or 100k. Leaving you with a 400k mortgage. If your asset appreciates 10% over 5-7 yrs well now you have an asset worth 600k - 400K mortgage leaves you with 200k equity. This does not include the mortgage paydown by the tenants and expense write offs. You have just doubled your money. Then you can get a heloc and buy another property and repeat the process again. Try and do that with a REIT.

Q: I would appreciate your comments on the new rail safety regulations pertaining to oil transportation. The rails, including CNR appear to be selling off due to the impact the new regulations may have on expense ratios. Is this overdone?
Thanks,Hans

Q: Hi Team,

I realize this is a totally apples to oranges comparison, but if you could only pick one of AVO or GUD for a 5 year hold, which would you choose? This is for a small position in an otherwise well-balanced portfolio. I currently own AVO but am tempted to switch to a company that has better market sentiment.

Many thanks for any thoughts you can share.

Michael

Q: I don't own GUD, but your recent comment that it is sitting on nearly 1/2 billion dollars piqued my interest. Google finance tells me the market cap of GUD is ~ 670M and has no debt. So if I but it at today's price and market cap, I'm basically buying it for cash on hand?!

Seems like a good place for some money.

Q: Hi,

RBC came out with a report last month on comparing CAR.UN/BEI.UN to renting a condo. Citing you would have done better over the long term with a REIT plus you do not have the hassle of dealing with tenants, possibly not being paid rent etc. What are your opinions with such a thought process of buying a REIT instead of a rental property? Is this a fair comparison?

Q: I noticed from GUD.TO's quarterly results that it does a lot of financing ativity, which make me wonder whether this is a pharmaceutical company or rather a financial firm. Don't know why its debt financing interest is so high (15%). Also please comment on its quarterly results.

Manny thanks!
