Q: Hi, share price has declined to $33.86, from a high of $40.88, only a few weeks ago.
This company has a very low share count of 10.9 mln shares with a float of just 7.3 mln. Fairly large holding by insiders/institutions - 35-40%. Decent dividend yield 3.90%. Company's revenue is almost equally distributed between US and Canada. There has also been some nominal insider buying reported recently. Is it just the market volatility and illiquid nature of stock or any other reason for recent softness, in your view? Should we buy/add for dividend and growth ? Thanks

Q: My understanding is that transportation fuel costs, account for 70% of oil consumption. If that is somewhat correct, and the direction of car manufacturing is toward Tesla like vehicles, what is your long term view on oil. How does it get back to 100.00 with supply continuing to have a positive trend? Costs continue to rise?
Many thanks

Q: Good morning,
As an income investor, I have the following utility holdings that amount to about 12% of my non-registered holdings: FTS (up 10%), EMA and NPI (breaking even) and ALA (down 50%). I have no need to sell any of these and enjoy the dividends, but as a conservative senior and in a rising interest rate environment do you think it would be prudent to unload/reduce some of them or just hang on? If sell/reduce which should be the first to go?
