Q: A lot of positives in today's new release for Questor. Notwithstanding the size of the order, but the Company is now selling its clean technology into a new market: Mexico. Also for the first time this order included the power generation component from its Clear Power product line as part of the total solution. What are your thoughts for QST and its stock price going forward?

Q: In the company profile, ERE is noted as being "unincorporated". I am curious if that is significant; for example are their reporting/accounting held to less rigorous scrutiny compared to an "incorporated" company? Also ERE has a +9% dividend but is a new kid on the block - less than a year. The high dividend was there from start. Is this a sign management over reaching - like trying too hard to be noticed? Can ERE maintain it? What is their payout ratio. I have no European exposure, but thinking a small position here is doable...………..Thanks, and all the best in 2019...….Lionel

Q: With new TFSA money available I am considering bringing these companies from a 3.5% position to a full 5% position. Any concerns or cautions?

Q: Good Morning
I was considering transferring a stock holding from an investment account to my TFSA. There is no tax implication.

In your opinion, regardless of what equity you may buy or transfer into your TFSA and discounting the tax implication of transferring a security from an RRSP, would it not be better overall to add new money to a TFSA? Just thinking I would be better off overall to build my total investments in the market rather than switching my holdings around?
Thank you

Q: Happy New Year.
I allocated 20% of my US holdings for high yield investments but want to avoid the tax implications of CEF/MLPs. Is there an ETF that you could recommend that covers this part of the market that eliminates the tax implications?
