Q: I own these shares. these are rate reset preferreds for Brookfield infrastructure that pay a yield of 7.475% until March 2029. These dividends are eligible dividends.The company is trying to redeem these shares at 26.50 a share. I will vote against it. If however if a majority vote for it, is there any legal way for dissenting shareholders to resist being taken over. This process seems somewhat unfair because the company could've offered 26.50 to those shareholders who want to be taken out and leave the other shareholders to continue to receive their dividends

Q: I am getting concerned about inflation, mostly in the U.S. Most of Trump's policy preferences, from removing illegal immigrants, to tax cuts and tariffs seem inflationary, and if he wrests control from the Fed, I don't see how inflation stays under control. What are your thoughts on this and what would you be watching? Finally how would one, as an investor, respond to signs of very high inflation? Thank-you.

Neo Performance Materials Inc. (NEO $17.81)

MP Materials Corp. (MP $73.27)
Q: I sold some NEO and am considering a re-buy. I like the direction NEO is taking. If the new USA administration, and the west nations as a whole, want to have economies not dependent on China then rare earth minerals should be on their radar since they are critical and currently almost all rare earths come from China. NEO is one of the few western companies, at least that I know of, that will have production of rare earths and related products that are/will be produced in the west (Estonia). I am considering a rebuy in the $7.50 range? What is your overall opinion of NEO and the rare earths in general? What other publicly traded, western, rare earth companies are there to consider?
Q: In an answer early this month when reviewing BYD's last quarter's results, you said "BYD notes that negative trends are continuing into the Q4, and it is still looking at ways to reduce costs. Certainly these are not great numbers, and the trend here is becoming somewhat concerning."
However, in some recent answers where members were asking for potential stocks to consider, including in the industrial space, BYD has been recommended. Why is it being recommended, given your assessment of the last quarter's results. Many thanks.

Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited (CP $104.78)
Q: I already had CNR stock in my nonregistered portfolio ,I just added CP and UNP in my RRSP in order to complete my "transportation sector ", choosing mostly railroads for precise reasons. What is your impression concerning the timing + the choices , my objective being here : less volatility + some growth and dividends. Thanks for your always excellent comments.
Q: Hi There can you tell me what the fair market value of NVO is at this time? It’s fallen a lot but it’s a solid company, do you think it’s a good pharma pick for 3-5 years?
Q: Hi, my question is a bit specific but also more general. I'm about 25% down on this stock. When I read, it seems that it's solid enough long-term, but it's not going to rise 25% for quite some time. As a non-resident, I cannot sell for harvesting tax losses, but I wonder if selling at a loss and putting the remaining money into something faster growing would be a good idea? Again, part of the question is about this specific stock, and part is a general query. I'm curious about your answer! Thanks!

Q: Recognizing that I never got past Economics 101 , I see the oil industry as having terrible supply and demand dynamics .We are oversupplied even with
OPEC + purposely restraining output and worldwide oil reserves continuing to grow. The oil energy sector continues to be pressured by the green energy politics and technology. With 2 significant wars going on and supply lines being restrained by Houthi activity , the price of oil has been less than spectacular. Canadian oil companies are cheap for a reason. Please provide another view on this sector. Thanks. Derek

Q: I was wondering if there were any market index ETFs that had a DRIP plan associated with them.
Q: Two questions - Could I have your take on SGML recent earnings please, and (2) HHL has diverged vigorously from its past consistent performance, presumably on the Trump policy on health care, appointees etc. I assume other sector participants will likewise take a hit but would appreciate your take on the matter. The issues affecting the sector appear to relate to policy, not politics.
