Q: According to SA the BAM buyout does not extend to the Canadian issue above. Assuming this is true, do you think the US side buyout changes the risk of a dividend cut, the risk of which is being floated in many quarters? Thanks.

Q: I am a great fan of brookfield companies. I own BEP.un (which I have to trim because it is reaching a totally artificial maximum I go by especially since I also own NPI and AQN) BAM.A and BPY.UN. I plan to sell the BPY.UN (from my RRSP)now because I think even with an offer increase, there is little upside left. I will purchase more BAM.A but I am also considering BIP.UN more or less as a replacement for BPY but it seems to be spiralling down, Thoughts on BIP.UN? (I like the .UN version because I sell covered calls and its hard to do with BIPC)

Q: I asked a question on Dec 30 about dual listed bond etfs (that I accidently set to private). What do you think of this etf from BMO? I currently hold ZFM.

My thinking is that it's easer to rebalance into US ETFs with dual listed funds.
Thanks

Q: Hello Team,

TWTR stock came down 5.5% from Wednesday to Friday and is now down another 3.77% after hours following the announcement that Trump was permanently kicked out of TWTR space, an action also implemented by many other social media companies, even PINS. I know Twitter will survive without Trump but how about its stock!?

Do you think the drop is a knee-jerk reaction and the stock will recover in a short order? or do you think the stock will continue to languish not because he is gone, but because TWTR cannot monetize its millions of users looking for the latest news/events in political arena, a generally depressing space at the best of times. Trump at least had made this space a bit more lively/interesting.

I have been waiting very patiently for a vey long time on this stock to finally move and now this. I want to hold as I think the company is ready for live sport and ad revenues from it, but I wonder if this elusive goal is worth the opportunity cost.

I know you like TWTR so what would you do? I know your most likely answer is "nothing," but could you tell me if nothing really has changed and the future is bright for TWTR with or without Trump.

Thank you as always!

Q: EBAY’s current P/E seems to indicate that it’s being left behind somewhat in the perception of today’s investors. Your 2018 response that “you didn’t understand how it competed against AMZN” (to paraphrase) made a lot of sense to me. Can you comment on its current status and if, in your opinion, there are any catalysts that will energize the stock price?
