Q: I hold ENF for income. Given this assessment, is it best to sell now? (I'd hate to see the share price decline if I wish to sell.)

" Analysts await Enbridge Income Fund Holdings Inc (TSE:ENF) to report earnings on November, 2. They expect $0.49 earnings per share, down 7.55 % or $0.04 from last year’s $0.53 per share. T_ENF’s profit will be $72.09M for 16.40 P/E if the $0.49 EPS becomes a reality. After $0.52 actual earnings per share reported by Enbridge Income Fund Holdings Inc. for the previous quarter, Wall Street now forecasts -5.77 % negative EPS growth."

Q: It appears that what Peter has anticipated for CXR is about to occur. Financial Post reported earlier today, in part: "Following previous efforts to retool its capital structure, Concordia is beginning a court proceeding under the Canada Business Corporations Act (CBCA). The company hopes to reduce its existing secured and unsecured debt obligations by more than $2 billion."

Q: Sorry, guys. One last follow up regarding Northland and Algonquin. I should have clarified, Investor's Edge shows consensus eps for Northland in 2107 is $1.07 growing to $1.46 in 2018 and consensus for Algonquin growing from 66 cents in 2017 to 73 cents in 2018.

I mentioned in my previous question that the above eps numbers were CIBC's Investor's Edge, when in fact they were the consensus numbers as reported by CIBC.

I suppose that doesn't change the fact it appears that Bloomberg is showing different consensus numbers, but I just wanted to clarify my previous statement.

Thanks again and sorry for the confusion.

Q: Hello

I had bought LAC as a speculative buy last year as a play on the changing dynamic in the auto/energy sector. It has a run up a lot recently hitting new highs again today I believe. Do you see anything specific driving the recent movement? I am trying to weigh Letting a winner run with the fact it looks a little overheated and wanting to be invested in this theme for the long term. Thanks

Q: I have a lot of cash in both of my RRSP's My overall portfolio is VERY diversified and I am only looking for ideas that make sense to put in my RRSP for tax reasons.

What 6 companies would you reccommend as making sense to put into an RRSP at this point in time.

I will be RRIFing in a couple of years, if that makes any difference.

Thanks

Q: I currently own a 3.5 % position in celgene. Yesterday's accouncement of a failure to proceed to a phase 3 drug trial has led to two analyst downgrades. The stock is down 6 percent pre market. Would you be comfortable, at this moment, to top up to 5%? Or do you see more downside for the company, and would prefer to let things settle.
Thank you

Q: Hi guys.

Just a follow up on Raymond's question regarding Algonquin Power (AQN) and Northland Power (NPI). I believed you stated that Algonquin has a better growth profile than Northland. However, CIBC's Invstor's Edge shows Northland eps going from $1.07 to $1.46 from 2017 to 2018, while Algonquin's eps going from 66 cents to 73 cents.

Are my eps numbers wrong?

Thanks.

John
