Q: Good evening!
You mentioned this new company as 'small' in a previous comment, but they now appear as part of the TSX 60, notably number 2 on the list in dividend returns (to Telus). How can this be small and make that list?
Also, can you tell me what their payout ratio would be, referencing cash flow of course, not 'official' earnings.
As well, I asked another question about a week ago referencing which stocks to move into a TFSA from RIF. Did you receive that question?
Thanks!
Paul
