Q: I own Series 2 Adjustable Rate Preferred Shares. The company has given notice that these shares can be converted on a one-for-one basis into Series3 Preferred Shares. Would it be more advantageous for me to keep the Series 2 Adjustable Rate Preferred Shares or convert them into the Series 3 Preferred Shares?

Q: Hi.
I have been watching the insider trading reports lately and there has been what I would describe as significant purchases of these 2 companies by a "GMT Capital\Bay Resource" insider. Considering your industry background I was wondering if you might know them and if so, what your perspective would be on this activity.
Thanks

Q: I am wondering about the benefits of using market and/or limit orders. My normal purchase is between $5,000 - $10,000 and I am a long hold investor type. I have used the limit option maybe twice and frankly, found it kind of stressful - always having to check if the order got placed or looking to see if the share price is increasing and therefore I miss out altogether. My initial reaction is that in 3 years I won't really care about the few dollars I might save today. Or am I being too blase about this and throwing money away needlessly?

As always, appreciate your insight.

Q: 5i gives BEP.UN a favorable rating. But Accountability Research (AR), in a report on 12 January 2017, rated it as a SELL with a target of only $33. The AR report suggests the possibilities of conflicts of interest with BAM and fears about the high payout rate. Have you considered your rate in light of AR concerns? A detailed reply would be appreciated since I own BEP.UN and planned to purchase more.

Q: Is it possible to quantify the impact of the Nissan contract? The news release didn't include any financial details, but one would presume that Nissan's worldwide supply chain is substantial. Nissan's decision may also expose Kinaxis to an even broader international business audience. Nissan also said they "see this as a long term relationship between our two companies." I have a 1/3 position currently, as a much lower price. Also considering the recent pullback, would you step in for another 1/3 or more at this time?

Q: Good afternoon,
I hold the following stocks in my business account that have a weight of between 6.2% and 8.3%. This account was started in DEC/16 and has increased by 6.7% YTD not including dividends. I want to add six more stocks to further diversify while reducing the percentage per equity down to between 4 and 5%.

My goal is to generate income equal to the amount of corporate tax payable annually. I looks like this can be achievable!

Let me know if I need to share dollar values to help access.

Thanks,
Raymond
