Q: Having read so many questions recently from your customers citing down 20%, 50% and worse; and feeling the pain myself ... would it make sense as part of a "flight to safety" plan (tip the risk reward in my favor/minimise downside risk) to buy a real return bond fund - or something similar? Looks like the dividend is only 1.9% but short term that beats a lot of other choices.

Thanks. Merry Christmas and the Best of Years in 2016.

Q: These Dundee series 4 preferred shares tanked during the past week after Dundee announced plan to exchange them (redeemable in June 2016) to class 5 shares redeemable in June 2019) - http://dundeecorp.com/pdf/2015-12-10-QandA.pdf
The exchange incentives are clearly not sufficient considering the fact that these pref shares now have junk rating (re prefblog.com). What is the most concerning is that the company is now offering extra payment to shareholders who vote in favour of exchange (see Globe and Mail article here: https://t.co/HseE5rIvF8). I would never think something like this is even legal in Canada... What's your opinion of this?

Q: Over the past several months I have gone to 60% cash.
I have only 3 banks & 2 telecoms left in account.
Thinking now would be a good time to start getting back in.

If you had to buy any 3 Canadian stocks for a 63 year old conservative investor which 3 would you buy.

Thank you as always for wisdom.

Q: Peter, crude oil is below $40 but yet the gasoline price near where I live in Toronto is still around $1/litre. This gasoline price is the same as when oil was around $80 or so. What am I missing? Why the gasoline price doesn't come down. Thanks for the insights.
