Q: HI 5i,
I purchased ($1.90) Photon from analysis of this company, I'm very pleased with my purchase (THANK-YOU). My question to you here is, my position is just considered a toe in position, do you think taking a bigger position or adding more at this time is prudent?

Q: Since Pure was bought out at a healthy premium, all has been quiet on the merger/acquisition front. You would think with the US dollar at a hefty premium to the CDN dollar that more US companies would be interested in gobbling up a Canadian company. I know—no crystal ball—but do you see any possible attractive targets for a US company.

Q: Derek
You need a Cdn. & US brokerage a/c.'s
e. g. you buy 100 shs. CSU in your Cdn. a/c.
After settlement call the broker & tell them to tfr. the 100 CSU to your US a/c. Now the US div. will go into your US a/c. Should not be a problem buying CDN Co.'s that pay US divs. & accumulate those divs. in your US
brokerage a/c.

Q: For your member looking to receive USD dividends after buying a CAD stock:
You should be able to buy BIP.UN or BEP.UN in your CAD trading account then have Scotia transfer the position to your USD trading account and make an election to receive the dividends in USD. This way the dividends will be paid in USD and remain in USD. From there the cash could be transferred to your USD bank account as needed.

Q: I wish to buy CDN cos that pay their dividends in US $ for my Scotia ITrade non registered account. I do not want the divs converted to CDN $ but go to a US $ bank account for US vacation. How do I set this up? Can I buy the stock with CDN $ (on TSX) or am I going to have to buy on an American exchange in US$. Scotia has told me the divs will converted to CDN then converted back to US (with fees for each conversion of course).I am not getting a clear answer from Scotia as to do this.
Your (or members) advice is appreciated.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Earlier today I wrote in about GES quarterly report. All factors considered I thought it was positive and showed progress. In your reply you said the turn around was moving "nicely". I agree with you. However Mr. Market sees it differently. The stock is crashing...down over 15% on heavy volume. So what do you think is going on. Were expectations too high? Is this just profit taking on a stock that has doubled this year. I think this stock must be a day traders delight for it seems very volatile. Your thoughts please.
Thank you!
