Q: CN Rail announced their capital spending for next year and it seems that they will continue to spend on infrastructure improvements. I assume that SJ would get some of that business. My question is when SJ announced previously that revenue would be soft in 2017 would that have been based on CN decreasing their spending or is there really no way of assessing that? The stock currently has reacted much so I am thinking CN's announcement wasn't material (please excuse the pun) to SJ.

I own this stock for almost two years, slightly below my cost.
Should I continue to hold ,or Would you think it is time to add some more, which is 1.75% weighting of my p/f.

Thank you for your good advice as always. Pui

Q: Hi,
I am down 60% on this this one. Very small portion of my portfolio (less than 1%. Just wondering if I should average down or let it be for now. Stock looks pretty cheap on P/E, P/B and P/S. RFC went down with the oil and gas sector because of its large exposure to Alberta. RFC seems to be doing ok. Do you think this is dead money or does it have some potential in the medium term.

Q: I have been a holder of AQN for a fair while and have been very satisfied and even have added to the position on dips. I notice that the "short" position of this stock was increased by 51% as at Jan31/17. I don't usually become concerned by changes in short positons however this increase is considerable. Should I view this as a concern by the so-called better informed?
