Q: MCAN (MKP) is a mortgage company that I hold. It seems to be a good income stock. It is raising more capital that I interpret as positive. Is this to hedge against the "expected" rising interest rates? If rates go up how will this affect their business? My holding is 3%, I am thinking of bring this up a bit based on their positive moves to increase capital. Am I reading this wrong?

Thanks,
Doug

Q: An analysts recently warned off on PPL. He cautioned that PPL using a reduction in dividends, might develop a planned but delayed refinery. Something along the lines of what IPL is doing with Heartland.
Would you trade all, some or any, of a long term and large percentage holding in PPL for TRP ?

Q: With the market rotation, I have seen a number of questions from people who are down 30-50% on some stocks asking if they should switch out. What guidance can you provide regarding the best tactic when highly volatile small-mid cap growth stocks turn downwards. Putting in a stop loss of -15% may get you stopped out of promising but volatile stocks. Holding until you are down 30-50% leaves you looking at a 50-100% recovery to break even. Hard to feel positive about this scenario even with a 3-5 year outlook.....

Q: This is a confusing time as I watch equities in the growth and value camps move up and down depending on the news of of the day. Seems to be related to the threat of inflation and the Fed's reaction to it. Which US/Global companies/ETFs would you suggest I buy in both VALUE and GROWTH camps to give me a balanced exposure to this dilemma? If possible 5 suggestions in each area would be helpful. As always, thanks for the guidance.
