Q: Regarding the dividend history. I use longrundata.com
It provides information on the last 8 dividend payments and then a 30 year history. It's a US site so you will need to add .tsx as a suffix. A disadvantage is that it doesn't seem to work where there is a dot in the address as in TCK.A or D.UN

Q: DHX is a stock I have held since January 2014. It is going down as fast as the rest of the market is going up. 5i seems to like it. What do you see in it?

Also, on my online account they issue buy alerts. I acted on one on Feb 18 after the alert. It was CS. It dropped 4.5% that day while the market was going up. I would be afraid to add to either one of them. Should I just stick to mutual funds because that seems to be the only way that I can make money in the market?

Thanks,
Dennis

Q: Re: David's question concerning a source for a historical listing of dividends for a particular company.

I use the stockwatch.com basic service which costs approx. $5/month as my main source for company information including news releases for the past year and stock charts. Clicking on the trading symbol pulls up the trading activity for the past few sessions as well as dividend history. For instance, I just checked the history for CNR and it lists the dividends back to December, 1996.
