Q: Down 50% and 35% respectively on these two companies. Would you move on and put what is left of my money somewhere else? Been holding XTC for three years and EFN for over a year. Is there any catalysts coming soon worth waiting for. Thanks.

Q: EFN came out with an outlook that was a bit gloomy, expecting earnings to be down a few percent, yet the stock and the rate reset bond dropped by about a third.

Is the dividend safe?

Q: In the response to a question on Jan 17th, you said that EFN was buying back shares. I can't see anything like this on Canadian Insider except back in September. Did you mean ECN?
