Q: Hi folks: I am not a big fan of technicals but I do check a stock's "trend, volumn, and momentum" sometimes.
My question is what is the best time frame to be looking at: ie: one month, 3 months, 6 months, a year ???
Will the time frame differ for different stock sectors?

Q: May I have your thoughts on the latest news from Aquila? They appear to have obtained some permits from the authorities and the stock was bid up on Friday. Is bulk sampling on the horizon or are they more likely to diamond drill the ore body to get a better handle on the grades and consistency?. Are the option holders in the money?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Q: I have a 3.5% position in CPG, and I have a 1% position in TOU and a 2.5% position in VET. My overall exposure to energy is around 12%. I am not looking to decrease my energy exposure, but I am considering consolidating my position into fewer names. Would you consider a transition from CPG to either TOU or VET to be a sound move, and if so, which would you choose? VET offers a better dividend, but TOU is better positioned to take advantage of a rise in natural gas, which seems like a real possibility over the next 3-6 months. Thanks so much!

Q: X has had a run up recently. Still, I see a forward P/E approx. 13 times. 1.1 price to book and under 12 price to cash.
I do love to compund "toll road" dividends. BUT, is X truly a toll road these days? Some comment about competion in the space, but who exactly are the competitors? I don't want to buy the stock only to see it become "Uberized" by new technology in a short or medium term.
I am looking for a long term hold and hoping dividend increases are on the way. Set it and forget it.
Your thoughts please. Keep up the great work and many thanks.
Cheers
John

Q: Hi Team, Canaccord's reset preferred has been reset at the following rates: fixed 5 year = 3.8850% the variable rate is at 3.722%. Given that the spread between the 5 year Gov't and the 3 month Tbill is narrow at .163% Is it logic at this point in time to take a chance and convert from the fixed rate preferred to the variable rate preferred? If interest rates do go up will the variable reset out perform the fixed rate preferred?
Cheers David

Q: I recently added a small position in CHW primarily for the nice yield and low PE valuation and low payout ratio. I also like their US focus. The stock price is up nicely since I added and I was thinking of adding to it or starting a position in CBL. I am a long term investor (10+ years time horizon). Would you have a preference of one over the other?
Thanks
Thanks

Q: I bought this one (BIP.UN) in Feb. with an ACB of $31.00 and now it is over $60.00: 3 for 2 unit split soon - is this the reason for the big increase in share price recently & should I keep - I own 1000 shares which equals a very small position in my portfolio.
