Q: I like this site that another member suggested for info on short positions. https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/q/ks?s=DH.TO The link takes you to Key Stats for DH but just enter the symbol in the box for any stock and moving averages is in the right hand box. Tons of info on this site. I use it regularly and find new stuff all the time.
Thanks

Q: I own both CBO and CBH bond funds. They have not performed well, and I was wondering if these are something that I should hang on to for the future. Are they a safety net when the world is dealing with a low interest rate environment?
Together they are about 7% of my portfolio.

As always thanks..

Q: Peter; I have my cynic hat on this morning after reading that the short interest in ENB increased by 5.7 million shares or 18.3 %. Then this AM we have the huge equity issue. Is it in the realm of plausibility that the dealers who did the deal were also the cause for the short increase? Seems a good way to lock in a profit. Thanks.Rod

Q: I asked this question in the blog but probably should be here.

My broker told me that BEP.UN was a bad investment because the $2.25 payout far exceeded the $1.11 earnings? When I go online to check this out I get conflicting numbers, so not sure who to believe. Can you clarify as to the integrity of BEP.UN
Thankyou....Jim

Q: Although you do not specifacally follow US stocks, I would appreciate your opinion on ESRX. It has dropped significantly this year. I still have an 18% profit on it. Is it worth holding or would another US investment be more promising? (My other US holdings being MMM, JNJ, NVS, VIG, IWO). Thank you
